Answer:

The correct answers are:

  • minimally invasive
  • lower risk of infection
  • less pain and faster recovery time.

Step-by-step explanation:

Minimally invasive surgery involves using surgical techniques involving tiny cuts in the skin - or no cut at all - as opposed to the traditional large cuts needed in surgical procedures. Minimally invasive surgeries are broadly divided into two

  1. Robotic surgery minimally invasive surgery: This involves using robotic-assisted methods, where advanced robots are controlled by a surgeon controls the device from a console while viewing a 3-D high-definition image on the console, providing better image quality and more precise robotic arm movements.
  2. Non-robotic minimally invasive surgery (endoscopy): Non-robotic minimally invasive surgery is also known as endoscopic surgery, and it involves the use of viewing aids such as a laparoscope, arthroscope etc containing video cameras and channels for small surgical equipment, passed through a small incision or natural opening, which serves as an eye to see internal organs and perfom operations internally with a minimal incision

overall, using endoscopes have the following advantages:

  • Low risk of infection
  • Short hospital stay
  • Quick recovery time
  • Less scarring
  • Reduced blood loss
