Advanced Gastrointestinal Surgeries
At Yashoda Hospitals, we specialize in a comprehensive range of advanced gastroenterology procedures designed to address various GI conditions with precision and care. Here’s an overview of the key procedures we offer:
Anal Fistula Surgery
Anal fistula surgery is a procedure aimed at treating an abnormal connection between the inner lining of the anal canal and the skin near the anus. This condition can result in discomfort, pain, and discharge. The surgery involves carefully removing the fistula tract to prevent infection and promote healing. Depending on the fistula’s complexity, various surgical techniques, such as fistulotomy or the placement of a seton, may be used to ensure complete recovery and minimize the risk of recurrence.
Anal Fissure Treatment
Anal fissure treatment focuses on healing small tears or cracks in the lining of the anus, which can cause pain and bleeding during bowel movements. Initial treatments include dietary changes, topical ointments, and medications to relax the anal sphincter. In cases where these methods are ineffective, surgical options such as lateral internal sphincterotomy may be recommended. This procedure helps reduce pressure on the fissure, allowing it to heal more effectively and reducing pain for the patient.
Colectomy
A colectomy is a surgical procedure in which a part or all of the colon (large intestine) is removed. This surgery is often necessary for treating conditions like colon cancer, severe inflammatory bowel disease, or diverticulitis. Depending on the extent of the disease, the surgery may involve removing a segment of the colon (partial colectomy) or the entire colon (total colectomy). The procedure aims to remove the diseased tissue, alleviate symptoms, and prevent further complications, with the goal of improving the patient’s quality of life.
POEM Procedure
Peroral Endoscopic Myotomy (POEM) is a minimally invasive procedure used to treat achalasia, a condition where the esophagus has difficulty moving food down into the stomach. During the procedure, an endoscope is used to make small incisions in the inner lining of the esophagus and cut the muscles that are preventing food from passing. This technique helps improve swallowing and reduce symptoms like chest pain and regurgitation, offering a quicker recovery compared to traditional surgery.
Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography (ERCP)
ERCP is a specialized endoscopic procedure used to diagnose and treat conditions affecting the bile ducts, gallbladder, pancreas, and liver. During the procedure, an endoscope is passed through the mouth into the digestive tract, allowing the doctor to inject a contrast dye into the bile and pancreatic ducts. X-rays are then taken to identify any blockages, stones, or tumors. ERCP can also be used to perform therapeutic interventions, such as removing gallstones, inserting stents, or taking tissue samples for further examination.
