Minimally invasive surgery (MIS) is an approach to surgery that minimizes cutting through your skin and tissues. Surgeons use MIS techniques and technology to cause as little trauma as possible during your procedure. Smaller cuts reduce your potential for pain, complications and recovery time.

​

Far Eastern Memorial Hospital has skillfully applied this technique to surgeries such as gallbladder, appendix, thyroid removal, varicose vein stripping, inferior turbinate hypertrophy, mini-laparoscopic common bile duct stone removal, adrenalectomy, vagotomy, cholecystectomy, liver cancer resection, and intestinal adhesion separation.

We ranked among the top two nationwide for its mini-laparoscopic appendectomy and endoscopic inguinal hernia procedures.
