Hartman's Procedur
A biopsy is a medical procedure to collect tissue or cell samples for lab testing. Doctors often recommend it when they suspect cancer or another condition. Biopsy can be done with a special needle, inserting it through the skin to extract fluid, cells, or tissue from a suspected mass. It can also be done via an endoscope (a thin, flexible tube with a camera) to access and remove tissue from a suspicious area within the body. The collected tissue sample is then sent to a lab for histological analysis to confirm a diagnosis.
Laparoscopic gallbladder removal is a minimally invasive procedure to remove a diseased gallbladder. The gallbladder, a small organ near the liver, stores bile. Removal may be necessary for conditions like gallstones, chronic cholecystitis, or gallbladder cancer, especially if it severely impacts quality of life. This common procedure uses a laparoscope and small incisions, minimizing trauma, pain, and recovery time.
The appendix, a small, finger-shaped organ attached to the large intestine in the lower right abdomen, has no known function. It's prone to inflammation (appendicitis), which requires removal. Untreated appendicitis can lead to a ruptured appendix and serious infection (peritonitis). An appendectomy removes the inflamed appendix. Laparoscopic appendectomy is a minimally invasive approach using small incisions.
An anal fistula is a small tunnel connecting the inside of the anus to the surrounding skin. It often begins with an infected gland, leading to an abscess (a pus-filled swelling). When the abscess drains, it can form a fistula. Treatment usually requires surgery, such as a fistulotomy, which opens the fistula to promote healing.
A hernia occurs when a weakness in the abdominal wall causes certain organs to push through the muscle or tissue covering it. This pushes the organ (usually fatty tissue or intestine) into an area where it shouldn't be, creating a bulge under the skin near the belly or groin. Doctors perform the hernia repair surgery to push the hernia back into its original place either through open surgery or through a laparoscopic approach.
Hartmann's procedure, also known as proctosigmoidectomy, is a surgical operation performed on the large intestine (colon). Specifically, it is a type of colectomy, where a portion of the colon is removed. This procedure involves removing the sigmoid colon, the final section of the colon before it connects to the rectum, and sometimes a portion of the rectum as well. The sigmoid colon and rectum are where waste material is prepared for elimination from the body, and Hartmann's procedure alters this process.

The surgeons at Manipal Hospitals, Kolkata did an outstanding job operating on my mother. She was suffering from small bowel ischemia, a difficult situation complicated by her diabetes and communication challenges due to a previous stroke that affected her speech. The doctor took the utmost care and brought her back to us; she is now recovering well at home.
I consulted a surgeon from Manipal Hospitals, Kolkata for my dad's hernia surgery. He explained everything so well to us and performed the surgery. He is one of the few doctors I've met who calms patients and their families/friends by answering all their questions. His bedside manner and how he connects with patients' families are exceptional. I highly recommend this doctor for any laparoscopic or open surgery needs.
