What does MISH mean in HOSPITALS

Minimally Invasive Surgery (MIS) is a type of surgical procedure which uses small incisions instead of large open ones. This results in less risk of infection and tissue trauma, as well as faster recoveries for the patient with improved outcomes.

MIS typically benefits those undergoing surgical procedures that involve internal organs or anatomical structures, such as joint repair or back surgery. It can also be used for the removal of tumors or cysts in the abdominal area.

All surgeries come with potential risks and side effects, but MIS has been found to have fewer complications than open surgery. Risks may include internal bleeding or infection at the surgical site. However, these are usually rare occurrences when experienced surgeons carry out the procedure.

Recovery time will depend on each individual case and which specific kind of procedure was carried out, but many people experience quicker healing times with MIS than they would with open surgery. Generally speaking, you can expect to return to normal activities within a few days or weeks after the operation, depending on your procedure's complexity and other factors such as age and underlying health conditions.

There are a number of hospitals around the world offering MIS procedures; some may even be available through private clinics or specialized centers dedicated exclusively to this type of care. Your doctor should be able to refer you to a facility where you can receive this type of treatment safely and appropriately if needed.
