About Gastrointestinal Surgery

About Gastrointestinal Surgery

The gastrointestinal tract is the passageway of digestive organs that runs from your mouth to the rectum. The GI tract includes the mouth, oesophagus, stomach, small intestine, large intestine, and anus. Gastrointestinal surgery is the branch of medical science that specialises in the surgical management of diseases affecting the gastrointestinal tract. This speciality also focuses on the treatment of disorders affecting other digestive organs including the liver, pancreas, and gallbladder.

Gastrointestinal surgeries we offer

Gastrointestinal surgeries we offer

Piles surgery

Piles are enlarged blood vessels that occur around or inside the anus. They present as small discoloured lumps and become more common with age. Surgical treatment includes procedures like stapling, artery ligation and advanced LASER assisted treatment that offers benefits of no cuts, no scars and no recurrence.

Hernia surgery

A hernia is the protrusion of any internal organ or another body part through the weakened muscle wall or tissue containing it. If left untreated, hernias can cause life-threatening complications. Hernias are repaired through open and laparoscopic surgeries lasting nearly 45 minutes.

Bariatric surgery

For individuals struggling with obesity and complications arising from being overweight, the CK Birla Hospital offers a wide range of bariatric surgery services. Bariatric (weight loss) surgery includes various procedures such as gastric bypass and sleeve gastrectomy.

Gallstone removal surgery

Gallstones are hardened stone-like objects that develop and collect in the gallbladder. Gallstones develop in varying sizes and hence may affect every patient differently. Surgical interventions are offered to remove gallstones or, in some cases, the gallbladder through minimal access manner.

Gastrointestinal general surgery

Gastrointestinal general surgeries are performed to treat diseases affecting the gastrointestinal tract that includes the oesophagus, stomach, intestine, rectum, liver, gallbladder, and pancreas. Common procedures include gastro-oesophageal surgeries, hepato-pancreato-biliary surgeries, appendectomies among others.

Elective general surgery

Elective surgery is a procedure that is planned in advance and does not involve a medical urgency. However, elective surgery does not necessarily mean that it is optional. These include biopsies, sphincterotomy, suturing of wounds, wide local excision, and surgery for diabetic foot care.

Robotic Bariatric Surgery

Robot assisted surgeries are more precision oriented, with improved accuracy. Here the robot provides real time AI assistance which helps plan and execute surgeries to improve clinical outcomes. This minimally invasive procedure is gradually becoming the preferred approach over laparoscopic approach. This leads to minimal blood loss and minimizes chances of infections.
