Hepatic Resections for Benign & Malignant Liver Tumors
Resection for Carcinoma of Bile Ducts & Gall Bladder
Surgery fir Portal Hypertension
Normally, blood is carried to the liver by a major blood vessel called the portal vein. If blood can’t flow easily through the liver because of cirrhosis or block in the portal vein, the pressure in the portal venous system increases. This higher pressure in the portal vein is called portal hypertension.

When the pressure becomes too high blood backflows to the veins in the esophagus and stomach (esophageal & gastric varices). Beyond a critical pressure these varices rupture and gives rise to blood vomiting called Hematomasis. This requires management by a team of trained Gastroenterologist, Interventional Endoscopist & a Surgeon.

Meso-artial shunt for Budd – Chiari Syndrome
Budd – Chiari Syndrome is a rare problem that results from blood clotting in the veins flowing out of the liver (hepatic veins). The high pressure of the blood in these veins leads to an enlarged liver, and to an accumulation of fluid in the abdomen, called ascites. This is managed either by surgical bypass shunt or Interventional Radiology (TIPS)
Bilio-enteric anastomasis for Bile duct strictures
Bile duct which carries bile from liver to intestine can get narrowed due to various causes. This obstruction can be relieved by Endoscopic Stenting or Surgical Bilio-enteric anastomasis
