Abstract

Introduction: This study will evaluate the postoperative outcomes of two surgical techniques: an advanced minimally invasive technique (Group A) and a classic surgical approach (Group B). The emphasis is on recovery time, complications, pain levels, and recurrence rates.
Methodology: A total of 60 patients were randomly assigned to two groups of 30 each. Group A experienced the improved surgical approach, whilst Group B used the old way. Postoperative outcomes were evaluated based on procedure time, blood loss, pain levels at various time points, healing time, hospital stay, return to regular activity, and recurrence of the disease.
Results: Group A had much less postoperative discomfort, faster recovery, and a speedier return to normal activities and work than Group B. In addition, Group A had much lower recurrence rates and comorbidities. However, there was no significant difference in hospital stays between the groups. Statistical analysis showed substantial differences (p < 0.05) in numerous outcomes, preferring the advanced strategy.
Conclusion: The findings indicate that the advanced minimally invasive procedure (Group A) produces superior recovery outcomes, fewer problems, and lower recurrence rates than the traditional surgical approach. This promotes the employment of modern procedures to improve patient recovery and lower surgical risks
