Advanced Laparoscopic Surgery

Advanced laparoscopic surgery involves surgery that is minimally invasive, using advanced surgical technologies to assist in surgery, providing the most desired patient outcome.  Minimally Invasive Surgery uses surgical techniques that only require 3-4 small ½” incisions, decreases blood loss, and encourages a shorter length of stay as well as a quicker patient recovery time.  

While several of our staff surgeons are involved in the use of advanced laparoscopic surgical procedures, Drs. Oleynikov and McBride are Co-Director’s of Education and Training for the Center for Minimally Invasive and Computer Assisted Surgery Initiative at UNMC.  For patients to learn more information about Minimally Invasive Surgery, please click the link below:
