Laparoscopic GI Surgery: Minimally Invasive Treatment
Laparoscopic GI surgery is performed through three or four small incisions in the abdomen. A laparoscope, a slim instrument fitted with a camera and light source, transmits a magnified image of the internal organs to a monitor, allowing the surgeon to operate with precision using specialised instruments.
Compared with conventional open surgery, laparoscopic gastrointestinal surgery is generally associated with reduced post-operative pain, smaller scars and a shorter hospital stay. Where a condition requires an open procedure, the clinical reasons are explained in detail during consultation.
Conditions Managed Through Gastrointestinal Surgery in Kolkata
Gallbladder Stones and Cholecystitis
Recurrent pain beneath the right ribs, nausea and indigestion after meals are common indications. Treatment involves laparoscopic gallbladder removal.
Acute Appendicitis
Lower right abdominal pain accompanied by fever requires prompt evaluation. The standard treatment is laparoscopic appendectomy.
Hernia
Inguinal, umbilical and incisional hernias are repaired through laparoscopic hernia repair with mesh reinforcement.
