Are there any myths about laparoscopic surgery that I should be aware of?

Yes, some common myths include concerns about the surgery leaving part of the disease inside the abdomen and the cost being significantly higher than open surgery. In reality, the disease is seen magnified during the procedure, making it easier to remove completely. While laparoscopic surgery may have a higher upfront cost, it often leads to faster recovery and less time away from work, making it cost-effective in the long run.
