What Is General &
Laparoscopic Surgery?
General surgery is one of the key specialties in medicine, responsible for the complete diagnostic, surgical treatment, and postoperative care of diseases of the stomach, intestines, gallbladder, appendix, liver, bile ducts, thyroid gland, and abdominal wall. It involves routine surgeries like hernia repair, gallstone extraction, piles and varicose veins treatment, as well as soft tissue mass excision, including cancer surgery. As a general surgeon, Dr. Muhammad Waseem Anwar deals with scheduled surgical operations as well as urgent surgeries required in case of emergencies like acute appendicitis, strangulated hernia, and internal abdominal injuries.
As a laparoscopic surgeon, he uses modern minimally invasive surgical techniques that preserve healthy tissues. Laparoscopy, or keyhole surgery, involves the use of very thin tools and a camera for the observation of the area under operation through small punctures that do not exceed 1 or 2cm in diameter. It offers less pain, small scars, a short stay in the hospital, and a quick return to normal activities.
If your symptoms persist, get worse, or start impacting your daily activities, or if your abdominal pain is severe or sudden, you have symptoms of appendicitis, vomiting continuously, a painful or trapped hernia, rectal bleeding, or if you develop a fast-growing lump, then don’t wait. Visit a general surgeon in Lahore before any complications arise.

Laparoscopic Surgery for
Minimally Invasive Treatment
Being an experienced and the best laparoscopic surgeon in Lahore, Dr. Muhammad Waseem Anwar has set up a clinical benchmark that is entirely dependent on modern laparoscopic surgery. This kind of surgery is performed with the help of modern laparoscopic equipment, which includes an HD camera system, energy devices, and other specialized tools that help visualize the field of work and perform appropriate operations through small incisions. It limits operating trauma, reduces anesthesia time, and ensures the patient’s safety during the entire surgical procedure.
Unlike traditional surgery, minimally invasive surgery involves making small 5 mm to 10 mm keyhole cuts on a patient. Operating through these keyholes with magnified vision, Dr. M. Waseem Anwar performs routine and complex procedures, including cholecystectomy, hernia surgery, appendectomy, and diagnostic laparoscopy.
Minimally invasive surgery is less traumatic in comparison with open surgery. It may provide small incisions and lower postoperative pain, no or minimal use of painkillers, fewer chances of infection of the surgical site, and a quick return to daily activities for suitable candidates. The recovery period varies and depends on the procedure, your overall health, and your body’s healing.
