GI Surgery, GI Oncology and Bariatric Surgery
The department of GI Surgery, GI Oncology and Bariatric Surgery has dedicated experts for conditions affecting each part of the gastrointestinal tract. Each of our doctors is an internationally acclaimed expert in their field with years of experience.
We cover a wide range of conditions, providing treatment with high success rates through cutting-edge technologies and complex surgeries such as Whipple’s procedure, lap cholecystectomy, liver biopsy. We focus on use of minimally invasive and robotic techniques for fewer side effects and faster recovery.
We use the Tumour Board approach for all cancer cases, where doctors from across specialities assess each case to offer a holistic approach free of individual bias. We also focuses on spreading awareness about disease prevention, including gastric cancer, which is on the rise in India.
It is a procedure in which the gallbladder is removed by laparoscopic techniques. It is a minimally invasive surgery as it is done with the assistance of a video camera and several thin instruments.
Also known as pancreaticoduodenectomy, the Whipple’s procedure involves removal of the "head", or the wide part, of the pancreas located next to the first part of the small intestine (duodenum). It also involves removal of the duodenum, a portion of the common bile duct, gallbladder, and sometimes part of the stomach.
Robotic gastrointestinal (GI) surgery, also known as computer-assisted surgery, uses robotic systems to treat a variety of conditions of the upper gastrointestinal tract such as Hiatal Hernias and Achalasia. Its benefits include significantly less pain, blood loss, risk of infection, and faster recovery.
Bariatric surgery includes a variety of weight loss procedures done to help people with obesity. Weight loss is achieved by reducing the size of the stomach with a gastric band or through removal of a portion of the stomach or by resecting and re-routing the small intestine to a small stomach pouch.
Gallstone disease, which is also known as cholelithiasis, occurs when hard deposits form in the gallbladder. The gallbladder is a small organ that plays a vital role in the digestion process. These deposits, called gallstones, can vary in size and composition. The formation of gallstones may be due to an imbalance in the chemicals present in bile, which is produced by the liver and stored in the gallbladder.
Haemorrhoids, also known as piles, are swollen and inflamed veins in the rectum and anus that can cause discomfort, pain, and bleeding. This common condition can result from increased pressure in the lower rectum, leading to the swelling of blood vessels. Factors such as straining during bowel movements, chronic constipation, or pregnancy can contribute to the development of haemorrhoids.
Pancreatic cancer is a severe and potentially fatal disease caused by the unusual growth of cells in the pancreas, a vital organ situated behind the stomach. This type of cancer usually progresses silently, and symptoms typically appear when the disease is already at an advanced stage, making early detection difficult.
Hepatobiliary cancer, encompassing tumors of the liver, bile ducts, and gallbladder, represents a diverse group of malignancies with distinct characteristics and treatment considerations. These cancers can arise from different cell types within the hepatobiliary system and may present challenges in early detection and management due to their varied symptoms and often asymptomatic nature in the early stages.
