Popis:	Minimally invasive surgery (MIS) is not currently commonly performed in most general veterinary practices. Some veterinary surgeons (VS) may be reluctant to progress to MIS owing to limitations they may associate with it, such as: equipment set-up cost, the requirement for additional training, the learning curve and the initially increased surgical time.1 MIS is, however, becoming favoured in specialist veterinary hospitals for performing several diagnostic and interventional procedures. This article will give a basic overview of what can be achieved using minimally invasive techniques and the equipment and patient care that is required.
