Gastrointestinal Surgery

Gastrointestinal surgery, also known as GI surgery, involves surgical procedures focused on the organs of the digestive system. This surgical branch addresses conditions and diseases affecting the gastrointestinal tract, including the esophagus, stomach, small intestine, large intestine (colon), liver, gallbladder, and pancreas. Gastrointestinal surgery is carried out by surgeons specializing in general surgery or those with specific expertise in gastrointestinal or colorectal surgery.

At Nivaran Hospital, our GI Surgeons are experienced in all surgeries related to the stomach.

Common types of gastrointestinal surgery include:

  • Appendectomy
  • Cholecystectomy
  • Colectomy
  • Gastrectomy
  • Hernia Repair
  • Liver Resection
  • Pancreatectomy
  • Esophagectomy
  • Bariatric Surgery
  • Colorectal Surgery
Appendectomy

Removal of the appendix, typically performed due to inflammation (appendicitis).

Cholecystectomy

Removal of the gallbladder, commonly performed to treat gallstones or gallbladder disease.

Colectomy

Partial or complete removal of the colon (large intestine), often necessary for conditions such as colorectal cancer, diverticulitis, or inflammatory bowel disease.

Gastrectomy

Removal of part or all of the stomach, typically performed for stomach cancer or other severe gastric conditions.

Hernia Repair

Surgical correction of hernias, which occurs when organs or tissues protrude through weak spots in the abdominal wall.

Liver Resection

Removal of a portion of the liver, often performed for liver tumors or certain liver diseases.

Pancreatectomy

Removal of part or all of the oesophagus, typically done for oe-sophageal cancer or severe reflux disease.

Esophagectomy

Specialized orthopedic surgeons concentrate on the treatment of conditions affecting the hand, wrist, and upper extremities, encompassing issues such as carpal tunnel syndrome, fractures, and tendon injuries.

At Nivaran, our commitment lies in aiding individuals to regain mobility and lead active, pain-free lives through personalized orthopedic care.

Bariatric Surgery

Surgical procedures for weight loss, including gastric bypass, sleeve gastrectomy, and gastric banding.

Colorectal Surgery

Surgical procedures addressing conditions of the colon and rectum, such as colorectal cancer, inflammatory bowel disease, or diverticular disease.


Gastrointestinal surgery can be performed using traditional open surgery or minimally invasive techniques, including laparoscopic or robotic-assisted approaches. The choice of surgical technique depends on the specific condition, the patient’s health, and the surgeon’s expertise.

The goal of gastrointestinal surgery is to treat diseases, relieve symptoms, and enhance the overall function of the digestive system. As with any surgical procedure, risks and benefits are carefully considered, and interventions are tailored to the individual needs of the patient. Patients undergoing gastrointestinal surgery are often cared for by a multidisciplinary team, including surgeons, gastroenterologists, nutritionists, and other healthcare professionals.
