Scarless Bariatric Surgery via "SPIDER"- 1st time in India

Surgeons in Delhi will for the first time in Asia Pacific use what is called a 'spider technology' — a single flexible laparoscopy instrument that will do away with the need for five incisions or scars for any abdominal intervention.

Instead, the rod like machine will enter through the belly button and open up like an umbrella within the abdomen, providing the surgeon with several instruments with 360-degree range of motion along with small cameras.
Getting operated with a spider technology will cost around Rs 30,000 more than a   normal laproscopic surgery.
