New method of Kidney removal

New inventions are made in the field of science and technology everyday.the development in the medical field in no less for a comparison.New technologies aim at doing things easily and low cost.operations in the past decade used to be a great thing.Operations such as kidney transplant were considered major operations.but now things have become easy.In Cleveland Ohio USA surgeons performed the operation through a belly button incision.Mr.Brad Kaster donated a kidney to his father and he barely has a scar for it.The kidney was removed through a single incision in his belly button,a new surgical procedure which will reduce recovery time and leave almost no scarring. He was the 10th donor to undergo the procedure.
Dr.Inderbir S.Gill and his colleagues at the research hospital on July 17th were set to perform the 11th operation by this procedure.The recovery time is faster when compared to the laparoscopic method with four to six key hole incisions.The new procedure has many advantages over the conventional one.
