There are multiple cannlas made. Through one of the cannulas, a laparoscope is inserted to pass through the abdomen. The video camera provides internal structural view of the spleen, which is internal to the body. Other special instruments are also placed through the other cannulas to help removing the spleen. The spleen is successfully removed from the body. Then the surgeon looks for any extra spleens present nearby, because some of the patients have extra small spleens developed in the body.
