Laparoscopic surgery, or “keyhole surgery,” is a minimally invasive technique performed using a telescope-like instrument (laparoscope) through small incisions (0.5–1.5 cm). It offers faster recovery, less pain, minimal scarring, and shorter hospital stays compared to open surgery. How It Works: Small Incisions: Multiple tiny cuts replace a large incision. Laparoscope: A thin tube with a light and camera gives a magnified view of the internal organs. Surgical Tools: Specialized instruments are inserted through trocars. Gas Insufflation: The abdomen is inflated with CO₂ to create space for better visibility. Common Procedures: Gynecology: Hysterectomy, ovarian cyst removal, tubal ligation Gastrointestinal: Gallbladder and appendix removal, colectomy Urology: Kidney or prostate surgery General Surgery: Hernia repair, splenectomy Bariatric Surgery: Gastric bypass for weight loss Benefits: Minimal scarring Less pain and bleeding Quick recovery Lower infection risk Laparoscopic surgery requires expert training and is now widely used due to its safety and patient-friendly outcomes.

Malaria is a serious disease caused by parasites transmitted through bites from infected female Anopheles mosquitoes. Early diagnosis and treatment are vital to prevent complications. Symptoms: High fever with chills Sweating after fever Headache, body aches, fatigue Nausea, vomiting, diarrhea Muscle and joint pain Rapid heartbeat, anemia, jaundice (severe cases) Causes: Malaria is caused by Plasmodium parasites, mainly P. falciparum (severe) and P. vivax (relapsing). The parasite enters the bloodstream via mosquito bites, multiplies in the liver, then infects red blood cells.
