Stones in the gall bladder can cause recurrent pain, belching after food, back pain or even shoulder pain. If left untreated, it can cause Jaundice or Pancreatitis, both very serious illnesses. Long standing gall stones can cause cancer of the gall bladder. Gall bladder removal (Cholecystectomy) is the only treatment. Laparoscopic removal of gall bladder gives rapid recovery.

Jaundice is usually caused by viruses. However, if jaundice is due to blockage of the bite duct; either by stone, tumor or injury; Endoscopy or surgery can relieve it effectively with long lasting effects.
Pancreatic Surgery.

Pancreas is an organ that secretes insulin. It can get affected by a disease called Pancreatitis, which is caused by alcohol, gall bladder stones, trauma, drugs, lipid problems etc. It can either develop stones in the duct or calcification in the parenchyma. It causes persistent pain or diarrhoea. Surgery can relieve this. Cancers of the pancreas can also be surgically treated with good results.

Liver is a unique organ with amazing power of regeneration. Upto 70% of liver can be removed to treat cancers of liver.

At times liver is damaged due to viruses, alcohol etc. This converts liver into the nodular structure and blood flow is directed through the abnormal channels. These patients can develop bloody vomiting or bloody diarrhoea, accumulation of fluid in the abdomen, swollen feet and abnormal behavior. Best treatment for such condition is liver transplant. However, there are other surgical procedures which benefit these patients.

Surgery can also help reduce weight. These operations are not done for cosmetic purpose or as an alternative to diet restriction and exercise. The obesity surgery is helpful for those overweight people who have medical problems like high BP, diabetes, joint problems, asthma etc. Losing 20-30% of extra weight remarkably improves these diseases.

Constipation is very common and leads to piles, fissure and fistula very often. These all can be treated effectively with the operation. Treatment of piles with a specially designed stapler gives painless & dressing-free outcome.

Hernia is a weakness in the abdominal wall. It can happen either in the groin, near umbilicus or around previous operation scar. Surgical repair done with the synthetic mesh is the only treatment. This can be done by routine as well as laparoscopic approach.

Laparoscopy is done through a small incision (key hole) using long instrument while looking at the TV monitor. Advantages of this new way of doing operation include

• Minimal pain
• Faster recovery
• Shorter hospital stay
• Early return to work & normal activity
