Lack of laparoscopy machines delays surgeries at 3 Lko hosps
Hindustan Times Lucknow
|July 13, 2025
Around 20 surgeries are being delayed daily due to the unavailability of laparoscopy machines in three major district hospitals of the city ~ Balrampur Hospital, Dr Shyama Prasad Mukherjee (Civil) Hospital, and Lok Bandhu Raj Narain Hospital (LBRNH), according to health authorities.
Laparoscopy, a minimally invasive surgical procedure used for both diagnosis and treatment of abdominal and pelvic conditions, is currently unavailable at Balrampur and Civil hospitals. Doctors at these facilities are relying on open surgeries, which are more invasive and require longer recovery times, a senior health official said.
