Gastrointestinal surgery is a treatment for diseases of the parts of the body related to the digestive stomach. The gastrointestinal includes the esophagus, stomach, small intestine, large intestine, and rectum. It also includes the liver, gallbladder, and pancreas, any repair to these parts can be treated with the advanced technique by minimally invasive surgery, it is an alternative to traditional “open” surgery during which an oversized incision is created. In the minimally invasive surgery, the doctor inserts a thin tube with a tiny camera into the body to see inside organs and relevant treatment is to be provided. If the matter is with the abdomen or passage, the doctor puts the scope through the esophagus. To check for carcinoma or different issues of the intestines, the doctor puts the scope through the anus into the intestine.
Our surgeons provide patients with minimally invasive options according to the severity of disease and according to the conditions to be treated and our surgeons use laparoscopic surgery to make incisions only millimetre’s in size, these small incisions create a passageway for special surgical instruments and for a laparoscope. An endoscope is a fiber-optic instrument that’s inserted within the wall. This device transmits pictures from among the body to a video monitor, permitting the doctor to visualize the operative space on the screen.
Advantages to the minimally invasive approach include:
Following are the advantages to the patient through minimally invasive surgery for gastrointestinal issues; some of them are listed below:
