by Gastro Surgeons
An Overview of Digestive System
Disorders Requiring Surgical Treatment

Introduction Gastrointestinal Surgery
Gastrointestinal surgery focuses on treating diseases
of the digestive tract, with gastro surgeons
specializing in both minimally invasive and open
procedures.
They operate on vital organs such as the esophagus,
stomach, intestines, liver, gallbladder, and pancreas.
These surgeries help manage conditions like tumors,
blockages, and infections, improving digestive health
and overall well-being.

Gallstones: Hardened deposits in the
gallbladder causing pain and digestive
issues.
Cholecystitis: Inflammation of the
gallbladder due to infection or stones.
Common Surgery: Cholecystectomy
(gallbladder removal).
Gallbladder Diseases

GERD: Chronic acid reflux causing
heartburn, chest pain, and difficulty
swallowing.
Hiatal Hernia: Stomach bulges into the
chest, worsening reflux.
Common Surgery: Fundoplication
(tightening the valve between
stomach and esophagus).
Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease
(GERD) & Hiatal Hernia

Colorectal Diseases
Colon Cancer: Tumors in the colon
requiring surgical removal.
Diverticulitis: Inflamed pouches in the
colon leading to pain and infection.
Common Surgery: Colectomy (removal
of diseased colon section).

Liver Diseases: Tumors, cirrhosis, or
cysts may need surgical intervention.
Pancreatitis: Inflammation of the
pancreas, sometimes requiring
removal of damaged tissue.

Gastro surgeons play a crucial role in
treating serious digestive diseases.
