GI Surgery
Bariatric surgery includes a variety of weight loss procedures done to help people with obesity. Weight loss is achieved by reducing the size of the stomach with a gastric band or through removal of a portion of the stomach or by resecting and re-routing the small intestine to a small stomach pouch.
Also known as pancreaticoduodenectomy, the Whipple’s procedure involves removal of the "head", or the wide part, of the pancreas located next to the first part of the small intestine (duodenum). It also involves removal of the duodenum, a portion of the common bile duct, gallbladder, and sometimes part of the stomach.
It is a procedure in which the gallbladder is removed by laparoscopic techniques. It is a Minimally invasive/keyhole surgery as it is done with the assistance of a video camera and several thin instruments.
Minimally invasive surgery offers a less invasive approach for treating GI cancer, reducing recovery time and postoperative complications while promoting faster patient healing. Techniques like laparoscopy and robotic surgery are increasingly utilized to achieve precision and improved outcomes in gastrointestinal cancer treatment.
