Variante(s) graphique(s)
celiosurgery


coeliochirurgie n. f.
Syn.
coelioscopie opératoire n. f.
chirurgie coelioscopique n. f.

Déf. :
Technique chirurgicale qui consiste à opérer en réduisant au minimum l'effraction tissulaire grâce à l'utilisation d'un coelioscope.

Note(s) :
À partir de 1980, les avantages de la chirurgie à ventre fermé s'affirment, l'amélioration considérable de l'instrumentation et des techniques d'endovision libère les derniers obstacles et supprime les dernières réticences en autorisant de plus en plus de gestes complexes. C'est ainsi que la mise au point des pinces à préhension atraumatiques, ciseaux coelioscopiques, matériel de coagulation unipolaire et bipolaire, laser coelioscopique autorise des interventions de plus en plus ardues, jusque-là du domaine de la laparotomie.

1 hr   confidence: Answerer confidence 5/5
uterine surgery


Explanation:
Whilst all the previous speakers have been correct in pointing out the various component of the word, one has to remember about context and terminology. No English speaking doctor will ever use the term. Coelic just refers to the hollow organ, the French term can be translated into:
(1) uterine surgery
(2) bladder surgery
(3) gallbladder surgery
etc.
So the idiomatic English terms should be uterine surgery.
