Splenectomy is a surgical procedure to remove your spleen. The spleen is an organ that sits under your rib cage on the upper left side of your abdomen. It helps fight infection and filters unneeded material, such as old or damaged blood cells, from your blood.
The most common reason for splenectomy is to treat a ruptured spleen, which is often caused by an abdominal injury

Colectomy

Pancreatic pseudocyst Drainage

Pancreatic cysts are diagnosed more often than in the past because improved imaging technology finds them more readily. Many pancreatic cysts are found during abdominal scans for other problems. A pseudocyst that is causing bothersome symptoms or growing larger can be drained. A small flexible tube (endoscope) is passed through your mouth to your stomach and small intestine. The endoscope is equipped with an ultrasound probe (endoscopic ultrasound) and a needle to drain the cyst

Colorectal surgery

Surgeons in the Division of Colon and Rectal Surgery at Manipal Hospital Whitefield offer the latest in diagnosis and treatment of disorders of the colon, rectum and anus. Colon resection is a surgery that’s done to treat colon cancer. The part of your colon containing the cancer is removed. A colon resection can be done using different techniques

Small bowel resection

Small bowel resection is surgery to remove a part of your small bowel. It is done when part of your small bowel is blocked or diseased. The small bowel is also called the small intestine. Most digestion (breaking down and absorbing nutrients) of the food you eat takes place in the small intestine. If there is enough healthy small intestine left, the ends are stitched or stapled together. This is called an anastomosis. Most patients have this done

Abdominal Surgery

Abdominal surgery refers to any operation on organs including the stomach, gallbladder, small or large intestine, liver, pancreas, spleen and appendix. It may be performed as an open or laparoscopic procedure.
Some common types of abdominal surgery include hernia removal, appendectomy, abdominal exploration and surgery for inflammatory bowel disease. It may be performed for a variety of reasons, including infection, pain, obstruction or tumors.

Fistula surgery

An anal fistula is a small channel that can develop between the end of the bowel and the skin near the anus. It is common among those who had the earlier anal abscess. An anal abscess is an infected cavity which is filled with pus. It is formed when anal abscess drained and not healed properly. It may cause bleeding or discharge while passing stools which may be more painful. If the anal fistula becomes severe, drainage may persist for a long time

Hernia Surgery

If your hernia is small and isn't bothering you, your doctor might recommend watchful waiting. Sometimes, wearing a supportive truss may help relieve symptoms, but check with your doctor first because it's important that the truss fits properly. In children, the doctor might try applying manual pressure to reduce the bulge before considering surgery.Enlarging or painful hernias usually require surgery to relieve discomfort and prevent serious complications.There are two general types of hernia operations — open hernia repair and laparoscopic repair

Appendectomy

Appendicitis is an inflammation of the appendix, a finger-shaped pouch that projects from your colon on the lower right side of your abdomen.Appendicitis causes pain in your lower right abdomen. However, in most people, pain begins around the navel and then moves. As inflammation worsens, appendicitis pain typically increases and eventually becomes severe.

Cholecystectomy

A cholecystectomy is a surgical procedure to remove your. Your gallbladder collects and stores.A cholecystectomy is most commonly performed by inserting a tiny video camera and special surgical tools through four small incisions to see inside your abdomen and remove the gallbladder. Doctors call this a laparoscopic cholecystectomy. In some cases, one large incision may be used to remove the gallbladder. This is called an open cholecystectomy.
