FAQ's

GI surgery encompasses a wide range of procedures performed on the digestive system. These surgeries address various conditions such as appendicitis, gallstones, hernias, gastrointestinal cancers (e.g., colon, stomach), inflammatory bowel diseases like Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, diverticulitis, and more. Additionally, GI surgeries may involve interventions to treat conditions affecting organs like the liver, pancreas, and oesophagus.
 

Alongside Appendectomy, Cholecystectomy, Colectomy, and Gastrectomy, several other common GI surgeries are frequently conducted. These include hernia repair procedures for different types of hernias, bariatric surgeries aimed at weight loss such as Gastric Bypass and Sleeve Gastrectomy, Liver Resection Surgeries to remove part of the liver, pancreatic surgeries to address pancreatic tumours or chronic pancreatitis, and procedures like Fundoplication to treat gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). These surgeries cater to various gastrointestinal conditions and aim to improve patient's overall health and quality of life.

Diagnosis of GI diseases involves various methods, including Endoscopy (e.g., Colonoscopy, Upper Endoscopy) for direct visualisation of the digestive tract, imaging tests like MRI and CT scans for detailed organ examination, blood tests to assess specific markers, stool tests for detecting infections or abnormalities, and biopsies for microscopic tissue examination. This comprehensive approach enables accurate identification and effective management of GI conditions.
 

Treatment options for GI conditions include medications, dietary changes, lifestyle modifications, and surgical interventions. Medications like antibiotics or immunosuppressants may be prescribed, along with dietary adjustments to manage symptoms. Lifestyle changes, such as exercise and stress management, can also help. In more severe cases, surgical procedures like Bowel Resection or Organ Transplantation may be necessary for effective treatment.

Rectal prolapse occurs when the rectum (the last part of the large intestine) protrudes through the anus. It can be partial, where only the rectal lining protrudes, or complete, where the entire rectum extends outside the body

Common symptoms of appendicitis include sudden abdominal pain that begins near the navel and shifts to the lower right abdomen, loss of appetite, nausea, vomiting, fever, and abdominal tenderness.

Treatment for IBD aims to reduce inflammation, control symptoms, and induce remission. It often includes medications like anti-inflammatory drugs, immune system suppressors, and biologics. In severe cases, surgery may be necessary to remove damaged portions of the intestine.
 

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) refers to a group of chronic inflammatory conditions of the gastrointestinal tract, primarily involving Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis. These conditions cause inflammation and damage to the digestive tract, leading to symptoms like abdominal pain, diarrhoea, weight loss, and fatigue.

During GI surgery, you will receive general anaesthesia for comfort and pain relief. The surgeon will perform the necessary procedure, which may involve small incisions for minimally invasive surgery or a larger incision for traditional open surgery. Advanced techniques and equipment will be used for precision. After surgery, you will be monitored closely before moving on to recovery. Follow your healthcare team's instructions for a smooth recovery. 

GERD is a chronic digestive disorder characterised by the reflux of stomach acid into the oesophagus, causing symptoms such as heartburn, regurgitation, chest pain, and difficulty swallowing.

The length of hospital stay after GI surgery varies based on factors such as the complexity of the procedure, your overall health, and your response to treatment. While some surgeries may require only a brief hospitalisation for monitoring and initial recovery, others may necessitate a more extended stay for closer observation and post-operative care. Your healthcare team will provide personalised guidance on the expected duration of your hospital stay based on your specific circumstances and recovery progress. 

Following your healthcare provider's instructions regarding medications before GI surgery is essential. In many cases, you may need to temporarily stop taking certain medications, especially those that affect blood clotting or anaesthesia. Always consult with your healthcare team to ensure a safe and successful surgery.
