436. Endoscopy vs Laparoscopy and the Beginnings
Surgery 101
Technological progress in medicine, as in other fields, emerges from the interplay of incremental refinement and decisive breakthroughs—those moments when a missing element is discovered and the path forward suddenly accelerates. The evolution of endoscopic surgery over the last century illustrates this well. Yet even today, the terminology surrounding procedures that employ scopes is often misunderstood. “Endoscopy” and “laparoscopy” are frequently used interchangeably, though they refer to distinct techniques, instruments, and purposes.
