On this application instructors can post the news related to laparoscopic and da Vinci robotic surgery. Trainee surgeons and gynecologists have instant, on-the-go access to the latest announcements. Users can read and comment on articles in the World Journal of Laparoscopic Surgery. Both students and WLH instructors can comment on the journals.

The World Journal of Laparoscopic Surgery is the quarterly peer reviewed official publication of the World Association of Laparoscopic Surgeons. This application can be used on any mobile device of choice. Doctors can quickly search, read, and compose emails; review documents; manage contacts and schedule meetings with colleagues.

Mobile apps have one clear advantage in general, a well-made app can provide a far better user experience than even the best websites are capable of right now. In fact, most people prefer an application for their smartphones or tablets rather than accessing the website. More and more interaction online occurs on mobile devices. Over five billion mobile subscribers (that is about 77% of the world’s population) are online.

Only 10% of the resources can only be used by the surgeons and gynecologists who have taken training at World Laparoscopy Hospital. This app is recommended to every surgeon and gynecologists who want to improve their laparoscopic skills. According to Dr. J. S. Chowhan, Associate Director of WLH, “In the future this mobile application is going to broadcast all the live surgeries from the operating room of World Laparoscopy Hospital.” In the next version of this app user will also have the opportunity of taking video of their live surgery while they are operating and they can share their surgical skill with other colleagues of remote proctoring and remote mentoring will be possible. The future is now definitely of smart phones and handheld devices. In the future many new applications will launch for minimal access surgeons.
