What is the primary purpose of a surgical laparoscope?

  1. To perform open surgery

  2. To visualize the internal organs

  3. To remove tumors

  4. To administer anesthesia


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

A surgical laparoscope is a minimally invasive surgical instrument used to visualize the internal organs and perform various surgical procedures.

Which type of laparoscope is commonly used for minimally invasive surgery?

  1. Rigid laparoscope

  2. Flexible laparoscope

  3. Semi-rigid laparoscope

  4. All of the above


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

All types of laparoscopes, including rigid, flexible, and semi-rigid, are used for minimally invasive surgery, depending on the specific procedure and the surgeon's preference.

What is the main advantage of using a surgical laparoscope?

  1. Reduced scarring

  2. Shorter recovery time

  3. Less pain

  4. All of the above


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

Surgical laparoscopy offers several advantages over traditional open surgery, including reduced scarring, shorter recovery time, less pain, and a lower risk of complications.

Which surgical procedure is commonly performed using a laparoscope?

  1. Appendectomy

  2. Cholecystectomy

  3. Hernia repair

  4. All of the above


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

Laparoscopy is commonly used for a variety of surgical procedures, including appendectomy, cholecystectomy, hernia repair, and many other minimally invasive surgeries.

What is the typical diameter of a surgical laparoscope?

  1. 5-10 mm

  2. 10-15 mm

  3. 15-20 mm

  4. 20-25 mm


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Surgical laparoscopes typically have a diameter ranging from 5 to 10 millimeters, allowing for minimal incisions and reduced tissue trauma.

What type of camera is commonly used in surgical laparoscopes?

  1. CCD camera

  2. CMOS camera

  3. Infrared camera

  4. Ultrasound camera


Correct Option:
Explanation:

Surgical laparoscopes typically use either CCD (Charge-Coupled Device) or CMOS (Complementary Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor) cameras to capture high-resolution images of the internal organs.

Which light source is commonly used in surgical laparoscopes?

  1. Halogen light

  2. Xenon light

  3. LED light

  4. Fiber optic light


Correct Option:
Explanation:

Surgical laparoscopes commonly use LED (Light-Emitting Diode) or Xenon light sources to provide bright and focused illumination of the surgical site.

What is the role of insufflation in laparoscopic surgery?

  1. To create a working space

  2. To improve visualization

  3. To prevent organ damage

  4. All of the above


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

Insufflation in laparoscopic surgery involves introducing a gas, typically carbon dioxide, into the abdominal cavity to create a working space, improve visualization, and prevent organ damage.

Which surgical instrument is commonly used to grasp and manipulate tissues during laparoscopic surgery?

  1. Laparoscopic forceps

  2. Laparoscopic scissors

  3. Laparoscopic needle driver

  4. All of the above


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

Laparoscopic surgery utilizes a variety of specialized instruments, including forceps, scissors, and needle drivers, designed for grasping, cutting, and suturing tissues.

What is the typical length of a surgical laparoscope?

  1. 25-30 cm

  2. 30-35 cm

  3. 35-40 cm

  4. 40-45 cm


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

Surgical laparoscopes typically have a length ranging from 30 to 35 centimeters, allowing for adequate reach and maneuverability during surgery.

Which surgical technique involves making a single incision for laparoscopic surgery?

  1. Single-port laparoscopy

  2. Multi-port laparoscopy

  3. Robotic laparoscopy

  4. Hybrid laparoscopy


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Single-port laparoscopy is a minimally invasive surgical technique that involves making a single incision through which all surgical instruments and the laparoscope are inserted.

What is the primary advantage of robotic laparoscopy over traditional laparoscopy?

  1. Improved precision

  2. Enhanced dexterity

  3. Reduced surgeon fatigue

  4. All of the above


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

Robotic laparoscopy offers several advantages over traditional laparoscopy, including improved precision, enhanced dexterity, reduced surgeon fatigue, and a shorter learning curve for surgeons.

Which type of laparoscope is commonly used for diagnostic purposes?

  1. Operating laparoscope

  2. Viewing laparoscope

  3. Hybrid laparoscope

  4. None of the above


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

Viewing laparoscopes are specifically designed for diagnostic purposes, allowing surgeons to visualize the internal organs without the need for surgical intervention.

What is the role of a trocar in laparoscopic surgery?

  1. To create an incision

  2. To insert the laparoscope

  3. To introduce insufflation gas

  4. All of the above


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

A trocar is a surgical instrument used to create an incision, insert the laparoscope, and introduce insufflation gas into the abdominal cavity during laparoscopic surgery.

Which surgical technique involves making multiple incisions for laparoscopic surgery?

  1. Single-port laparoscopy

  2. Multi-port laparoscopy

  3. Robotic laparoscopy

  4. Hybrid laparoscopy


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

Multi-port laparoscopy is a minimally invasive surgical technique that involves making multiple incisions through which surgical instruments and the laparoscope are inserted.
