Is cholecystectomy minimally invasive surgery?

Whether cholecystectomy is minimally invasive surgery needs to be judged according to the actual situation.

Cholecystectomy includes laparoscopic cholecystectomy, open cholecystectomy, etc. If the patient is undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy, it is minimally invasive surgery, which has the advantages of short operation time, less surgical trauma, and quick postoperative recovery. However, if the patient is undergoing open cholecystectomy, it is not minimally invasive surgery. The operation is relatively invasive and the postoperative recovery is relatively slow.

The patient needs to choose the appropriate surgical plan according to his actual situation. He usually needs to eat light and regular diet to reduce the burden on the stomach.
