Laparoscopy is a minimally invasive, key-hole diagnostic procedure that allows a surgeon to inspect the organs inside your body - without conducting an open surgery. A thin, long tube equipped with a tiny light and a high-definition camera at the tip is introduced into the body via a small incision or a port to capture images of the abdominal cavity. The capture images are transmitted to high-resolution monitors in the operating room - that allows the surgeon to perform the same operation as traditional open surgery but with smaller incisions.

If it has spread to the walls of the colon, the affected portion of the colon, rectum and surrounding lymph nodes are removed.
Oesophageal (food pipe) cancer can be treated through a laparoscopic oesophagectomy procedure that involves either removing only the affected portion of the oesophagus (oesophagectomy) or the entire oesophagus (total oesophagectomy).
