Objective: The aim of this study is to evaluate the advantage of using 3D laparoscopy over conventional 2D laparoscopy on various operative procedures.

Methods: From April 2012 till April 2017, 1200 patients were selected for various laparoscopic procedures and were divided into two groups. One group of patients were selected for 2-D Laparoscopic surgery and another group for 3-D laparoscopic surgery. Operative performance in both groups was compared in terms of time, stress and confidence of the operating surgeon.

Results: Operative time interval for various procedures was significantly less in 3D Group as compared to 2D Group . Also,it was found that the surgeries performed in 3-D were much easier compared to 2-D in terms of stress and confidence of the operating surgeon.

Conclusion: Advantages of 3D laparoscopy were well appreciated during various operative procedures as compared to 2D laparoscopy.
