Answer:
A laparotomy is a surgical procedure involving a large incision through the abdominal wall to gain access into the abdominal cavity. It is also known as a celiotomy.
The most common incision for laparotomy is a vertical incision in the middle of the abdomen which follows the linea alba. The upper midline incision usually extends from the xiphoid process to the umbilicus.
