Cirrhosis Cirrhosis is a late-stage liver disease in which healthy liver tissue is replaced with scar tissue and the liver is permanently damaged. Scar tissue keeps your liver from working properly. Several liver diseases, including hepatitis, fatty liver disease, and chronic alcohol use, can contribute to cirrhosis. For cirrhosis treatment, consult Dr. Ujwal Zambare, best Gastroenterologist in Wakad, Pune, specializing in liver diseases.

Fatty Liver Fatty liver is also known as hepatic steatosis. It happens when fat builds up in the liver. Having small amounts of fat in your liver is normal, but too much can become a health problem. Your liver is the second largest organ in your body. If you’re concerned about fatty liver, consult Dr. Ujwal Zambare, a leading liver specialist in Wakad, Pune, for expert fatty liver treatment and personalized care

Liver Tumor Liver tumors (also known as hepatic tumors) are abnormal growth of liver cells on or in the liver. Several distinct types of tumors can develop in the liver because the liver is made up of various cell types. Early diagnosis and treatment are essential for effective management. For liver tumor treatment, consult Dr. Ujwal Zambare, a leading Gastroenterologist and Liver Specialist in Wakad, Pune, specializing in advanced liver care and minimally invasive treatments.

Gallbladder cancer is an abnormal growth of cells that begins in the gallbladder. Your gallbladder is a small, pear-shaped organ on the right side of your abdomen, just beneath your liver. The gallbladder stores bile, a digestive fluid produced by your liver. Gallbladder cancer is uncommon. When gallbladder cancer is discovered at its earliest stages, the chance for a cure is very good. But most gallbladder cancers are discovered at a late stage, when the prognosis is often very poor. Gallbladder cancer may not be discovered until it’s advanced because it often causes no specific signs or symptoms. Also, the relatively hidden nature of the gallbladder makes it easier for gallbladder cancer to grow without being detected. Early diagnosis is crucial for effective treatment. For expert gallbladder cancer diagnosis and treatment in Pune, consult Dr. Ujwal Zambare, the Best Gastroenterologist & Gallbladder Cancer Specialist in Wakad, Pune. Symptoms Gallbladder cancer signs and symptoms may include: Abdominal pain, particularly in the upper right portion of the abdomen Abdominal bloating Losing weight without trying Yellowing of the skin and whites of the eyes (jaundice) Causes It’s not clear what causes gallbladder cancer. Doctors know that gallbladder cancer forms when healthy gallbladder cells develop changes (mutations) in their DNA. A cell’s DNA contains the instructions that tell a cell what to do. The changes tell the cells to grow out of control and to continue living when other cells would normally die. The accumulating cells form a tumor that can grow beyond the gallbladder and spread to other areas of the body. Most gallbladder cancer begins in the glandular cells that line the inner surface of the gallbladder. Gallbladder cancer that begins in this type of cell is called adenocarcinoma. This term refers to the way the cancer cells appear when examined under a microscope. Risk Factors Your sex. Gallbladder cancer is more common in women. Your age. Your risk of gallbladder cancer increases as you age. A history of gallstones. Gallbladder cancer is most common in people who have gallstones or have had gallstones in the past. Larger gallstones may carry a larger risk. Still, gallstones are very common and even in people with this condition, gallbladder cancer is very rare. Other gallbladder diseases and conditions. Other gallbladder conditions that can increase the risk of gallbladder cancer include polyps, chronic inflammation and infection. Inflammation of the bile ducts. Primary sclerosing cholangitis, which causes inflammation of the ducts that drain bile from the gallbladder and liver, increases the risk of gallbladder cancer. Prevention Get to and stay at a healthy weight Keep physically active and limit the time you spend sitting or lying down Follow a healthy eating pattern that includes plenty of fruits, vegetables, and whole grains, and limits or avoids red and processed meats, sugary drinks, and highly processed foods It’s best not to drink alcohol. If you do drink, have no more than 1 drink per day for women or 2 per day for men. You should consult a gallbladder cancer specialist if you experience persistent upper right abdominal pain, unexplained weight loss, jaundice (yellowing of the skin and eyes), nausea, vomiting, bloating, dark urine, pale stools, or chronic digestive issues that don’t improve with treatment. Since gallbladder cancer often shows no early symptoms and is usually diagnosed at an advanced stage, early consultation is crucial for better treatment outcomes. If you are experiencing any of these symptoms or have risk factors, seek expert care from Dr. Ujwal Zambare, the Best Gastroenterologist & Gallbladder Cancer Specialist in Wakad, Pune, for accurate diagnosis and effective treatment.

Cholelithiasis refers to the formation of gallstones, which are hard deposits that develop in the gallbladder. While the exact cause is not fully understood, factors such as excess cholesterol, bilirubin, or a dysfunctional gallbladder may contribute to stone formation. The gallbladder stores and releases bile for digestion, but when imbalances occur, gallstones can form, varying in size and number—from multiple small stones to a single large one. For expert cholelithiasis diagnosis and gallbladder stone treatment, consult Dr. Ujwal Zambare, the Best Gallstone Specialist Doctor in Wakad, Pune. Get advanced care for gallbladder stone treatment in Pune today. What Are The Symptoms of Cholelithiasis? You may experience cholecystitis symptoms daily or just once in a while. At times, any of these common symptoms can be severe: Abdominal pain (typically localized to the right upper quadrant of the abdomen) Abdominal swelling, distension or bloating Abdominal tenderness Clay-colored stools Fever and chills Loss of appetite Nausea with or without vomiting Pain that radiates from the abdomen to the right shoulder or back Risk Factors Age over 40 years Crash dieting, or losing weight rapidly (the bile then contains more cholesterol) Diabetes Ethnicity Family history Female gender Liver disease Overweight or obesity What Causes Cholelithiasis? In most cases, cholelithiasis is caused by excessive amounts of cholesterol in the bile that is stored in the gallbladder. The cholesterol hardens to form stone-like substances. Increased body weight and older age are associated with increased levels of cholesterol in the bile. Thus, gallstones are more likely to occur in women, in people who are obese, and in older individuals. Some gallstones develop because the bile contains too much bilirubin, a waste product of the liver that is a component of bile. Gallstones that develop from excess bilirubin are called pigment stones. How is Cholelithiasis Treated? Treatment of cholelithiasis begins with seeking medical care from your health care provider. To determine if you have cholelithiasis, your health care provider may ask you to provide blood samples and undergo diagnostic tests. Some people with cholelithiasis never have any symptoms. If you have symptoms of cholelithiasis, you may be hospitalized and given antibiotics to prevent an infection. Food intake is normally stopped, and intravenous fluids are administered to let the digestive system rest. You may also receive medication for the abdominal pain associated with cholelithiasis.

Spleen The spleen is an organ in the upper far left part of the abdomen, to the left of the stomach. The spleen varies in size and shape between people, but it’s commonly fist-shaped, purple, and about 4 inches long. Because the spleen is protected by the rib cage, you can’t easily feel it unless it’s abnormally enlarged.

Hernia Surgery A hernia is usually treated with surgery. There are three main types of hernia surgery; open hernia repair, laparoscopic hernia repair and robotic hernia repair.

Intestine The intestines are a long, continuous tube running from the stomach to the anus. Most absorption of nutrients and water happen in the intestines. Its job is to absorb most of the nutrients from what we eat and drink. Velvety tissue lines the small intestine, which is divided into the duodenum, jejunum, and ileum.

Appendix The appendix is a narrow, finger-shaped pouch that projects out from the colon. Appendicitis occurs when the appendix becomes inflamed and filled with pus. Appendicitis is an inflammation of the appendix, a finger-shaped pouch that projects from your colon on the lower right side of your abdomen.

Esophagus The esophagus is a muscular tube connecting the throat (pharynx) with the stomach. The esophagus is about 8 inches long, and is lined by moist pink tissue called mucosa. The esophagus runs behind the windpipe (trachea) and heart, and in front of the spine.

Stomach The stomach is a muscular organ located on the left side of the upper abdomen. The stomach receives food from the esophagus. As food reaches the end of the esophagus, it enters the stomach through a muscular valve called the lower esophageal sphincter.

Pancreatic cysts are fluid-filled sacs that develop on or within the pancreas, a vital organ located behind the stomach responsible for producing hormones and digestive enzymes. These cysts are often detected incidentally during imaging tests conducted for other medical conditions. Pancreatic cysts are categorized into two main groups: ✔ Nonneoplastic cysts – Includes pseudocysts and serous cystadenomas, which are typically benign and rarely cause complications. ✔ Neoplastic cysts – Includes mucinous cystic neoplasms (MCN) and other cystic tumors, which may have malignant potential and require monitoring or intervention. While many pancreatic cysts remain harmless and asymptomatic, some may develop into cancer or cause discomfort. If you have been diagnosed with a pancreatic cyst, consult Dr. Ujwal Zambare, the Best Gastroenterologist & Pancreatic Disease Surgeon in Wakad, PCMC, Pune, for expert evaluation and personalized treatment. Causes The cause of most pancreatic cysts is unknown. Some cysts are associated with rare illnesses, including polycystic kidney disease or von Hippel-Lindau disease, a genetic disorder that can affect the pancreas and other organs. Pseudocysts often follow a bout of a painful condition in which digestive enzymes become prematurely active and irritate the pancreas (pancreatitis). Pseudocysts can also result from injury to the abdomen, such as from a car accident. Symptoms You may not have symptoms from pancreatic cysts, which are often found when imaging tests of the abdomen are done for another reason. Persistent abdominal pain, which may radiate to your back Nausea and vomiting Weight loss Feeling full soon after you start eating How Are Pancreatic Cysts and Pseudocysts Treated? Most pseudocysts resolve on their own without treatment, over time. However, when symptoms become persistent, complications emerge or a cyst become larger than 6 centimeters in size, it should be drained. Endoscopic drainage. Percutaneous catheter drainage, which uses hollow tube inserted into the body to remove fluid. Surgical drainage, either via open surgery or laparoscopic surgery (using a laparoscope, a surgical tool that only requires a small incision). Prevention The best way to avoid pseudocysts is to avoid pancreatitis, which is usually caused by gallstones or heavy alcohol use. If gallstones are triggering pancreatitis, you may need to have your gallbladder removed. If your pancreatitis is due to alcohol use, not drinking can reduce your risk.

Pancreatic cancer begins in the tissues of your pancreas — an organ in your abdomen that lies behind the lower part of your stomach. Your pancreas releases enzymes that aid digestion and produces hormones that help manage your blood sugar. Several types of growths can occur in the pancreas, including cancerous and noncancerous tumors. The most common type of cancer that forms in the pancreas begins in the cells that line the ducts that carry digestive enzymes out of the pancreas (pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma). For expert diagnosis and advanced pancreatic cancer treatment in Wakad, Pune, consult Dr. Ujwal Zambare, the Best Gastroenterologist & Pancreas Specialist. Get the right care at the right time. Risk Factors Factors that may increase your risk of pancreatic cancer include: Smoking Diabetes Chronic inflammation of the pancreas (pancreatitis) Family history of pancreatic cancer Obesity Older age, as most people are diagnosed after age 65 What Are The Symptoms of Pancreatic Cancer? Signs and symptoms of pancreatic cancer often don’t occur until the disease is advanced. They may include: Abdominal pain that radiates to your back Loss of appetite or unintended weight loss Yellowing of your skin and the whites of your eyes (jaundice) Light-colored stools Dark-colored urine Itchy skin New diagnosis of diabetes or existing diabetes that’s becoming more difficult to control Blood clots What Are The Treatment Options For Pancreatic Cancer? Treatment for pancreatic cancer depends on the stage and location of the cancer as well as on your overall health and personal preferences. For most people, the first goal of pancreatic cancer treatment is to eliminate the cancer, when possible. When that isn’t an option, the focus may be on improving your quality of life and limiting the cancer from growing or causing more harm. Treatment may include surgery, radiation, chemotherapy or a combination of these. When pancreatic cancer is advanced and these treatments aren’t likely to offer a benefit, your doctor will focus on symptom relief (palliative care) to keep you as comfortable as possible for as long as possible. Prevention Stop smoking. If you smoke, try to stop. Talk to your doctor about strategies to help you stop, including support groups, medications and nicotine replacement therapy. If you don’t smoke, don’t start. Maintain a healthy weight. If you are at a healthy weight, work to maintain it. If you need to lose weight, aim for a slow, steady weight loss — 1 to 2 pounds (0.5 to 1 kilogram) a week. Combine daily exercise with a diet rich in vegetables, fruit and whole grains with smaller portions to help you lose weight. Choose a healthy diet. A diet full of colorful fruits and vegetables and whole grains may help reduce your risk of cancer.

Chronic pancreatitis is a long-term inflammation of the pancreas that does not heal over time. The pancreas, located behind the stomach, plays a vital role in digestion by producing enzymes and regulates blood sugar levels through hormone production. This condition develops when repeated inflammation damages the pancreas, leading to persistent symptoms over months or years. Unlike acute pancreatitis, which occurs suddenly and resolves quickly, chronic pancreatitis can cause ongoing pain, digestive issues, and complications if left untreated. For expert chronic pancreatitis treatment in Wakad, Pune, consult Dr. Ujwal Zambare, the Best Gastroenterologist & Pancreas Specialist. What Causes Chronic Pancreatitis? There are numerous different causes of chronic pancreatitis. The most common cause is long-term alcohol abuse. Approximately 70 percent of cases are linked to alcohol consumption. Autoimmune disease occurs when your body mistakenly attacks your healthy cells and tissues. Inflammatory bowel syndrome, which is inflammation of the digestive tract, and primary biliary cholangitis, which is a chronic liver disease associated with chronic pancreatitis. Autoimmune disease, which occurs when your body mistakenly attacks your healthy cells and tissues A narrow pancreatic duct, which is the tube that carries enzymes from the pancreas to the small intestine A blockage of the pancreatic duct by either gallstones or pancreatic stones Cystic fibrosis, which is a hereditary disease that causes mucus to build up in your lungs Genetics High blood levels of calcium, which is called hypercalcemia Who Is at Risk for Getting Chronic Pancreatitis? Abusing alcohol increases your risk of developing chronic pancreatitis. Smoking is believed to increase the risk of pancreatitis among alcoholics. In some cases, a family history of chronic pancreatitis can increase your risk. Chronic pancreatitis most frequently develops in people between the ages of 30 and 40. The condition is also more common among men than women. What Are the Symptoms of Chronic Pancreatitis? Pain in your upper abdomen Diarrhea Fatty stools, which are loose, pale, and don’t flush away easily Nausea and vomiting Shortness of breath Unexplained weight loss Excessive thirst and fatigue How Is Chronic Pancreatitis Diagnosed? During the early stages of chronic pancreatitis, changes in your pancreas are difficult to see in blood tests. For this reason, blood tests typically aren’t used to diagnose the disease. However, they may be used to determine the amount of pancreatic enzymes in your blood. Blood tests may also be used to check blood cell counts along with kidney and liver function. Your doctor might ask you for a stool sample to test for levels of fat. Fatty stools could be a sign that your body isn’t absorbing nutrients correctly. How Is Chronic Pancreatitis Treated? Treatment for chronic pancreatitis focuses on reducing your pain and improving your digestive function. The damage to your pancreas can’t be undone, but with the proper care, you should be able to manage many of your symptoms. Treatment for pancreatitis can include medication, endoscopic therapies, or surgery. Medications pain medication artificial digestive enzymes if your enzyme levels are too low to digest food normally insulin if you have diabetes steroids if you have autoimmune pancreatitis, which occurs when your body’s immune system attacks your pancreas Endoscopy Some treatments use an endoscope to reduce pain and get rid of blockages. An endoscope is a long, flexible tube that your doctor inserts through your mouth. It allows your doctor to remove pancreatic stones, place small tubes called stents to improve flow, and close leaks.

Acute Pancreatitis Acute pancreatitis is a sudden inflammation of the pancreas, causing severe abdominal pain. While mild cases improve within a few days, severe cases can lead to serious complications. The most common causes include gallstones and excessive alcohol consumption. The pancreas, located behind the stomach, plays a crucial role in digestion by producing enzymes and regulates blood sugar through hormone production, including insulin. Prompt diagnosis and treatment are essential to prevent complications. For expert acute pancreatitis treatment in Wakad, Pune, consult Dr. Ujwal Zambare, the Best Gastroenterologist & Pancreas Specialist. Symptoms of Acute Pancreatitis Tummy (abdominal) pain, just below the ribs, is the usual main symptom. It usually builds up quickly (over a few hours) and may last for several days. The pain can become severe and is typically felt spreading through to the back. The pain may be sudden and intense, or it may begin as a mild pain that is aggravated by eating and slowly grows worse. However, it is occasionally possible to have acute pancreatitis without any pain. This is more common if you have diabetes or have kidney problems. Being sick (vomiting), a high temperature (fever) and generally feeling very unwell are common. Your abdomen may become swollen. If the pancreatitis becomes severe and other organs become involved (for example, your heart, lungs or kidneys) then various other symptoms may develop. You may become lacking in fluid in the body (dehydrated) and have low blood pressure. Complications of Acute Pancreatitis The main complications of acute pancreatitis are Pancreatic pseudocyst – A pancreatic pseudocyst is a collection of fluid containing pancreatic enzymes that forms in and around the pancreas. The pseudocyst goes away spontaneously in some people. In other people, the pseudocyst does not go away and can become infected. Necrotizing pancreatitis – may occur in severe acute pancreatitis. In necrotizing pancreatitis, parts of the pancreas may die and body fluid may escape into the abdominal cavity, which decreases blood volume and results in a large drop in blood pressure, possibly causing shock and organ failure. Severe acute pancreatitis can be life threatening. Infection of the pancreas – Infection of an inflamed pancreas is a risk, particularly in people who have necrotizing pancreatitis. Sometimes, a doctor suspects an infection when a person’s condition worsens and a fever develops, especially if this happens after the person’s first symptoms started to subside. Organ failure – can occur in acute pancreatitis because damage to the pancreas may permit activated enzymes and toxins such as cytokines to enter the bloodstream and cause low blood pressure and damage to other organs such as the lungs and kidneys. This damage can cause some people who have acute pancreatitis to develop failure of other organs, including the kidneys, lungs, or heart, and this failure can lead to death. Causes of Acute Pancreatitis The most common causes (more than 70% of cases) of acute pancreatitis are Gallstones – Gallstones cause about 40% of cases of acute pancreatitis. Gallstones are collections of solid material in the gallbladder . These stones sometimes pass into and block the duct that the gallbladder shares with the pancreas (called the common bile duct). Normally, the pancreas secretes pancreatic fluid through the pancreatic duct into the first part of the small intestine (duodenum). This pancreatic fluid contains digestive enzymes that help digest food. If a gallstone becomes stuck in the sphincter of Oddi (the opening where the pancreatic duct empties into the duodenum), pancreatic fluid stops flowing. Usually, the blockage is temporary and causes limited damage, which is soon repaired. But if the blockage remains, the enzymes collect in the pancreas and begin to digest the cells of the pancreas, causing severe inflammation. Alcohol use – Alcohol use causes about 30% of cases of acute pancreatitis. The risk of developing pancreatitis increases with increasing amounts of alcohol (4 to 7 drinks per day in men and 3 or more drinks per day in women). However, less than 10% of people who frequently consume alcohol develop acute pancreatitis, which suggests additional triggers or other factors are needed for pancreatitis to develop. How alcohol causes pancreatitis is not fully understood. One theory is that alcohol is converted into toxic chemicals in the pancreas that cause damage. Another theory is that alcohol may cause the small ductules in the pancreas that drain into the pancreatic duct to clog, eventually causing acute pancreatitis. Drugs such as angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors, azathioprine, furosemide, 6-mercaptopurine, pentamidine, sulfa drugs, and valproate Estrogen use in women with high levels of lipids in the blood High levels of calcium in the blood Diagnosis of Acute Pancreatitis

The pancreas is a gland, about six inches long, located in the abdomen. It is shaped like a flat pear and is surrounded by the stomach, small intestine, liver, spleen and gallbladder. The wide end of the pancreas on the right side of the body is called the head. The middle sections are the neck and body. The thin end of the pancreas on the left side of the body is called the tail. The uncinate process is the part of the gland that bends backwards and underneath the head of the pancreas. Two very important blood vessels, the superior mesenteric artery and superior mesenteric vein, cross behind the neck of the pancreas and in front of the uncinate process. The pancreas is both an exocrine gland and endocrine gland and has two main functions – digestion and blood sugar regulation. For advanced pancreatic disease diagnosis and treatment in Pune, consult Dr. Ujwal Zambare, the Best Gastroenterologist & Pancreas Specialist in Wakad, Pune. Pancreas Conditions Diabetes, type 1: The body’s immune system attacks and destroys the pancreas’ insulin-producing cells. Lifelong insulin injections are required to control blood sugar. Diabetes, type 2: The body becomes resistant to insulin, causing blood sugar rises. The pancreas eventually loses the ability to appropriately produce and release insulin, leading to a need for synthetic insulin. Cystic fibrosis: A genetic disorder that affects multiple body systems, usually including the lungs and the pancreas. Digestive problems and diabetes often result. Pancreatic cancer: The pancreas has many different types of cells, each of which can give rise to a different type of tumor. The most common type arises from the cells that line the pancreatic duct. Because there are usually few or no early symptoms, pancreatic cancer is often advanced by the time it’s discovered. Pancreatitis: The pancreas becomes inflamed and damaged by its own digestive chemicals. Swelling and death of tissue of the pancreas can result. Although alcohol or gallstones can contribute, sometimes a cause for pancreatitis is never found. Islet cell tumor: The hormone-producing cells of the pancreas multiply abnormally, creating a benign or cancerous tumor. These tumors produce excess amounts of hormones and then release them into the blood. Gastrinomas, glucagonomas, and insulinomas are examples of islet cell tumors. Enlarged pancreas: An enlarged pancreas is rare. It may be a harmless anatomic abnormality or it may be a sign of autoimmune pancreatitis. Pancreas Tests Physical examination: By pressing on the center of the belly, a doctor might check for masses or abdominal pain. They can also look for other signs of pancreas conditions. Pancreatic pain often radiates to the back. Abdominal ultrasound: An abdominal ultrasound can detect gallstones that might block the outflow of fluid from the pancreas. It also can show an abscess or a pancreatic pseudocyst. Computed tomography scan: A CT scanner takes multiple X-rays, and a computer creates detailed images of the pancreas and abdomen. Contrast dye may be injected into your veins to improve the images. This imaging test can help assess the health of the pancreas. A CT scan can identify complications of pancreatic disease such as fluid around the pancreas, an enclosed infection (abscess), or a collection of tissue, fluid, and pancreatic enzymes (pancreatic pseudocyst). Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI): Magnetic waves create highly detailed images of the abdomen. Magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) is an MRI that focuses on the pancreas, liver, and bile system. Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP): Using a camera on a flexible tube advanced from the mouth to the intestine, a doctor can access the area of the pancreas head. Tiny surgical tools can be used to diagnose and treat some pancreas conditions. Sweat chloride test: A painless electric current stimulates the skin to sweat, and the chloride in perspiration is measured. People with cystic fibrosis often have high sweat chloride levels. Pancreas Treatments Physical examina Insulin: Injecting insulin under the skin causes body tissues to absorb glucose, lowering blood sugar. Insulin can be created in a lab or purified from animal sources. Pseudocyst drainage: A pseudocyst can be drained by inserting a tube or needle through the skin into the pseudocyst. Alternately, a small tube or stent is placed between either the pseudocyst and the stomach or the small intestine, draining the cyst. Pseudocyst surgery: Sometimes, surgery is necessary to remove a pseudocyst. Either laparoscopy (multiple small incisions) or laparotomy (one larger incision) may be needed. Pancreatic cancer resection (Whipple procedure): The standard surgery to remove pancreatic cancer. In a Whipple procedure, a surgeon removes the head of the pancreas, the gallbladder, and the first section of the small intestine (the duodenum). Occasionally, a small part of the stomach is also removed.

This operation is necessary to remove the area of bowel that is diseased. The operation removes a piece of your bowel and rectum. A cut will be made in your abdomen (tummy). The surgeon will remove the diseased area of bowel and a length of normal bowel either side of it

An abdominoperineal resection (APR) is a surgery in which the anus, rectum and sigmoid colon are removed. This procedure is most often used to treat rectal cancers located very low in the rectum. Often this surgery occurs after you have completed radiation and/or chemotherapy treatments.

Hemicolectomy A hemicolectomy is a type of surgery done to remove part of your large intestine called your colon. Your colon can be partially removed without affecting the way it works in your digestive system. Once the affected part is removed, the remaining ends are joined together with almost no impact on your digestion.

Laparoscopic Hernia Surgery Laparoscopic hernia repair is performed with general anesthesia and requires use of a breathing tube. Three half-inch or smaller incisions are made in the lower part of the abdomen. In laparoscopic hernia repair, a camera called a laparoscope is inserted into the abdomen to visualize the hernia defect on a monitor.

This is a type of surgery to remove the appendix. Removal of the appendix cures appendicitis. If appendicitis is untreated, it may rupture or burst open and cause very serious illness or even death. Laparoscopic appendectomy removes the appendix using small incisions.

Laparoscopic splenectomy (LS) is the gold standard procedure to remove the spleen in elective patient (1), but remains a very delicate procedure due to fragility of parenchyma and capsule of the spleen and its close connections with stomach, pancreas and colon.

Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is minimally invasive surgery to remove the gallbladder. It helps people when gallstones cause inflammation, pain or infection. The surgery involves a few small incisions, and most people go home the same day and soon return to normal activities.

Gallstones are hardened deposits of digestive fluid that form in the gallbladder, a small organ located beneath the liver. The gallbladder stores bile, which aids digestion. Gallstones can vary in size from a grain of sand to a golf ball, and some individuals may develop multiple stones at once. While silent gallstones may not require treatment, symptomatic gallstones can cause pain and complications.
