Description

Minimally invasive techniques are becoming increasingly popular in human medicine due to rapid patient recovery, minimal tissue damage, and a significant reduction in complications in the postoperative period. The development of this field in veterinary medicine is relatively slow due to some limiting factors such as specific equipment, higher cost of procedures, and lack of experience and training of specialists. The purpose of this article is to show the areas of application of mini invasive surgical techniques in veterinary medicine as well as the advantages over the classical techniques.
