LAPAROSCOPIC CHOLECYSTECTOMY INDIA -FORTIS HEALTHCARE
A laparoscopic cholecystectomy is a medical procedure involving the surgical removal of the gallbladder. During a laparoscopic cholecystectomy, a tube carrying a video camera is inserted through an incision in the navel, making laparoscopic cholecystectomy quicker and less invasive than traditional gallbladder surgery. Patients whose doctors utilize laparoscopic cholecystectomy generally have shorter recovery times and less incision pain than those using standard abdominal surgery. Laparoscopic now represents 90% of the cholecystectomies performed, and is the most common general surgery procedure.
Laparoscopic cholecystectomy has its own pitfalls.There are situations where abdominal surgery is inevitable and where doesn't seem to be the solution for the hour. Laparoscopic cholecystectomy improperly performed by negligent physicians causes serious complications, usually through bile duct damage.Moreover, laparoscopic cholecystectomy may be unsuitable for some patients, including pregnant women, and those with previous abdominal surgery. Laparoscopic cholecystectomy may also be ruled out by a doctor if the candidate has other medical complications.
Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is an exciting development, but it must be properly executed. A cholecystectomy is the surgical removal of the gallbladder. The two basic types of this procedure are open cholecystectomy and the laparoscopic approach.

LAPROSCOPIC SURGERY IN INDIA - FORTIS HEALTHCARE

Gastro esophageal reflux disease (GERD) with its resultant symptoms of heart burn is a common disorder. Motility abnormalities of the esophagus and stomach including an incompetent lower esophageal sphincter are responsible for the pathological reflux in the majority of patients. Initial therapy should be medical and change of lifestyle.
Surgery is reserved for those patients with failed prolonged drug therapy or those who have developed reflux complications. Surgical treatment offers the only chance of long-term cure. With surgical correction of the underlying anatomic and functional defect, the long-term success can be achieved in over 95% of patients.
A 28-year-old average build male was presented to us with severe symptoms of GERD not responding to medical management. He had a significant disturbance in his lifestyle and his work suffered. He was investigated and was offered LAPAROSCOPIC NISSEN FUNDOPLICATION.

CORONARY ARTERY BYPASS GRAFT SURGERY
Coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG) involves sewing one end an artery or vein above a blocked coronary artery and the other end below the blockage, thereby allowing blood an alternative means to get to the heart. The arteries or veins used for the bypass (which are known as "grafts") are usually obtained from the leg or the chest wall.
Bypass surgery may not be possible if the coronary artery is heavily calcified or if the disease is very widespread. CABG can be done with or without connecting the patient to heart-lung machine, depending on the kind of blockages and surgeon's decision. Several new surgical approaches are being developed, which can potentially reduce the discomfort and complications associated with traditional bypass surgery.
These are collectively referred to as being "minimally invasive." In general, these approaches focus on performing bypass surgery though a very small chest incision and performing bypass surgery while the heart is still beating (ie, without the need for a heart/lung bypass machine).
