Gallstones / Biliary Colic / Cholecystectomy
General surgery covers some disorders of the liver and biliary system. HPB Surgeons specialise in disorders of the liver, pancreas and biliary system and are experts in these matters.
The most common biliary problem is pain or other complications (e.g. jaundice) caused by gallstones. These are formed if the gallbladder is not working properly, and the standard treatment is to remove the gallbladder (cholecystectomy). This procedure is usually performed using a laparoscopic (keyhole) approach.
Dr Srinivasa offers urgent cholecystectomy and does these operations routinely in his practice. HPB surgeons are usually referred not only patients requiring routine cholecystectomy but also more complex cases (e.g. Mirizzi syndrome) due to their subspecialty training.
