Gallbladder Stone Treatment In Delhi

Gallstone is not an uncommon problem and with the availability of the ultrasonography the diagnosis is increasing, so does the number of gallbladder stone surgeries. Certain questions come to one’s mind when diagnosed with gallstones.

What are the symptoms of gallstones?

Typical symptoms of gallstones are pain in the right upper abdomen which radiates to back and may be associated with vomiting. The pain is typically aggravated by the fatty food intake. A minority of the patients present with symptoms of hyperacidity. Sometimes if the stone slips into the bile duct patient may have jaundice or acute pancreatitis.

I have been diagnosed with gallbladder polyp when underwent ultrasound for gynaecological complaints, should I get surgery done?

Gallbladder polyps are to be operated if symptomatic, single polyp > 1cm size or increasing size on repeated ultrasounds. Follow up ultrasounds are to be done at 6 monthly intervals.

I got ultrasound for some other complaints and diagnosed with gallstones, should I get my gallbladder removed?

Approximately 60-70% of the people with gallstone will never develop any symptom for gallstones, hence surgery is not recommended for gallstone without symptoms. But do not delay surgery if symptoms develop (as mentioned above).

I had hyperacidity for long, my doctor got an ultrasound and gallstones were diagnosed, should I get operated?

Hyperacidity can be the symptom of gallstones. It is difficult be sure of that the symptom is due to gallstone or simple acidity. You should get surgery done while keeping in mind that there is a small chance of acidity not getting relieved. In such a case antacids will take care of the symptoms nicely.

I have gallstones, can gallbladder cancer develop in it?

There is no direct evidence linking gallstones with gallbladder cancer. ~97% of the gallbladder cancers have stones in it but on long term follow up <3% of gallstone patients will develop cancer. Single large stone > 3cm size is considered to be a risk but no concrete evidence is still available.

What is acute cholecystitis?

In simple term it can be defined as inflammation or infection of the gallbladder. Usually associated with gallstones but sometimes can occur without it (acalculuscholecystitis: such patients are usually sick).

When should I get operated with acute cholecystitis?

If it is uncomplicated cholecystitis and your surgeon is experienced enough, it can be operated within 2-3 days of attack of acute cholecystitis. But if the duration is longer from the day of attack of pain, it is preferable to wait for 4-6 weeks and then get operated (called as interval cholecystectomy).

I Had right upper abdominal pain and diagnosed to have gallstones which surgery should I prefer Laparoscopic(keyhole) or open?

Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is the procedure of choice for gallbladder removal, open surgery is reserved for cases in which either laparoscopy is not possible or there is suspicion of cancer.

What can happen to me after gallbladder removal?

Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is a very safe procedure. The complications are very few. You will be able tolerate a normal diet after the procedure. Few patients may have increased frequency of stools initially which improves in the subsequent days. Surgical complications are rare most important being bile duct injury which occurs in <0.75% of total surgeries.

When Should You Seek A Colon And Rectal Surgeon’s Advice?

When Should You Seek A Colon And Rectal Surgeon’s Advice?

The colon and rectum are essential parts of the digestive system, serving crucial functions in the processes of digestion, absorption of nutrients, and elimination of waste from the body.

Colon and rectum are important for the following functions of the body,

1. Digestion and nutrient absorption
2. Waste storage and elimination
3. Water and electrolyte balance
4. Bacterial fermentation
5. Immune function
6. Role in bowel movements

Given their essential roles in digestion, waste elimination, and overall health, it is crucial to take care of the colon and rectum. This includes maintaining a balanced diet, staying hydrated, engaging in regular physical activity, and seeking medical attention if any concerning symptoms or issues arise. Regular colorectal screenings are also recommended, especially for those at increased risk for colorectal cancer, to ensure early detection and timely treatment of potential problems.

In this article, we will discuss the situations in which consulting a colon and rectal surgeon is essential.

Who are colon and rectal surgeons?

A Colon and Rectal Surgeon, also known as a Colorectal Surgeon or Proctologist, is a medical doctor who specializes in the diagnosis and surgical treatment of disorders and conditions affecting the gastrointestinal tract, specifically the colon, rectum, and anus. They are highly trained specialists with a focus on surgical interventions and medical management of conditions involving the lower gastrointestinal tract, helping to improve the quality of life and overall health of their patients.

Here are some instances when it is appropriate to seek the expertise of a colon and rectal surgeon:

• Colorectal Cancer Screening: If you are over the age of 50 or have a family history of colorectal cancer or other risk factors, a colon and rectal surgeon can perform screenings like colonoscopy to detect and prevent colorectal cancer.
• Abdominal Pain or Cramping: Various colon and rectal disorders, such as inflammatory bowel disease, colon cancer, diverticulitis, and appendicitis, can cause abdominal pain or cramping. A colon and rectal surgeon can perform a complete evaluation to identify the underlying cause of your symptoms if you experience chronic or severe abdominal pain or cramping.
• Rectal Bleeding: If you experience persistent or unexplained rectal bleeding, it's essential to see a proctologist to determine the underlying cause, which could range from hemorrhoids to more serious conditions like colorectal cancer.
• Change in Bowel Habits: Diarrhea, constipation, or thin stools are changes in bowel habits that can be signs of a number of colon and rectal disorders. It's imperative to consult a colon and rectal surgeon if your bowel habits suddenly alter or if your symptoms worsen.
• Anal Fissures or Fistulas: If you have chronic or painful tears in the lining of the anus (fissures) or abnormal connections between the anus and surrounding skin (fistulas), a proctologist can provide specialized treatment.
• Hemorrhoids: For persistent or severe hemorrhoids that do not respond to over-the-counter treatments, a colon and rectal surgeon can offer various therapeutic options.
• Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD): If you are diagnosed with conditions like Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis, a proctologist can be part of your healthcare team to manage and treat the disease.
• Diverticular Disease: If you have diverticulitis (inflammation of small pouches in the colon) or diverticular bleeding, a colon and rectal surgeon can help with management and surgical intervention if required.
• Bowel Incontinence: For chronic issues with bowel control, a proctologist can evaluate the condition and suggest appropriate treatments.
• Anal Abscesses and Infections: If you have an abscess or infection in the anal area, a colon and rectal surgeon can provide drainage and treatment.
• Prolapsed Rectum: In cases of rectal prolapse, where the rectum protrudes through the anus, surgical consultation may be necessary.
• Screening for Polyps: Colon and rectal surgeons can identify and remove polyps during a colonoscopy, which helps prevent the development of colorectal cancer.

Final words from Dr. Neeraj Goel?

It's important to note that many of these conditions can be managed through nonsurgical treatments, but if surgery is required, a colon and rectal surgeon has the specialized expertise to provide the best care. If you have any concerns related to your digestive health, it is best to consult Dr. Neeraj Goel, one of the most experienced and efficient gastrointestinal surgeon in Delhi, for a proper evaluation and personalized advice.
