What's New in General Surgery?

Laparoscopic surgery is also called as Keyhole Surgery. Laparoscopy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure and is used to treat various conditions of gastrointestinal tract including cancers. This is an innovative, effective and safer method as compared to conventional open surgeries. In this method, several small incisions (3 to 5) which are less than 0.5 cm are made in the desired location. Trocar (narrow tube-like instrument) is placed through these openings. A laparoscope is inserted through one of the trocars, which gives an enlarged view of the internal organs on the television screen. Advantages of laparoscopic surgery include minimal tissue damage, minimal blood loss, lesser discomfort, and quicker recovery.

We are specialized in performing laparoscopic procedures and some of them include appendectomy, cholecystectomy, colon and rectal resections, robotic rectal resections, liver resection, Nissen fundoplication, Heller myotomy, splenectomy, adrenalectomy and parathyroidectomy.
