•    Laparoscopy: In this type of surgical procedure, doctors or surgeons make 3 to 4 smaller incisions in your pelvic area. The incisions are made so that the surgeon can insert the narrow tube with a lighted camera (laparoscope) so that the surgeon can have the image of the infected area that is to be treated and he can insert the instruments that will help them to carry out the surgery. 

•    Vaginal type of surgery: The surgeon makes a small incision in the vagina to have access to the area that has to be treated.

•    Vaginal laparoscopy: It is also called a laparoscopic-assisted vaginal technique. In this type of procedure, the surgeon takes the help of a laparoscope through the vagina to have an easy view and access to the surgical site.  

•    Robotic laparoscopy: In this type of laparoscopy, the robotic arm is used to have access to the surgical site. The robotic type of laparoscopy provides the surgeon with the high-resolution 3D images and controlled arms of the robot with the miniaturized surgical instruments carry the further surgical procedure. This type of laparoscopy takes more time than that of open surgery, but its efficiency is also more than it. 

•    Single-incision surgery: This type of minimal access surgery makes only one incision in the patient's body that is through the navel that is through the belly button.
