GIT
Benign GI Conditions
- Peptic Ulcers: These are painful sores that develop on the lining of the stomach or the first part of the small intestine. They can cause discomfort, bloating, and indigestion.
- Gastritis: This is the inflammation of the stomach lining, often leading to stomach pain, nausea, and vomiting.
- Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS): A chronic condition that affects the large intestine, causing symptoms like abdominal cramps, diarrhoea, and constipation.
- Diverticulitis: This occurs when small pouches in the digestive tract become inflamed or infected, leading to severe abdominal pain, fever, and changes in bowel habits.
Malignant GI Conditions
- Stomach Cancer: Cancer that starts in the lining of the stomach, often causing symptoms like persistent stomach pain, bloating, and indigestion.
- Colorectal Cancer: Cancer that affects the colon or rectum, typically leading to symptoms like changes in bowel movements, blood in the stool, and unexplained weight loss.
- Small Intestine Cancer: A rare form of cancer that affects the small intestine, causing abdominal pain, nausea, and unexplained weight loss.
Acute Appendicitis
Acute Appendicitis is a sudden and painful inflammation of the appendix, which often requires immediate treatment to prevent rupture and further complications. It is a medical emergency that typically requires surgical removal of the appendix.
Emergency GI Conditions
Bowel Obstruction: Blockage in the small or large intestine that restricts the passage of food or waste.
Perforation: A hole in the stomach, intestine, or bowel leading to leakage of contents into the abdominal cavity.
Gangrene: Death of intestinal tissue due to lack of blood supply, often requiring emergency intervention.
Volvulus: Twisting of the intestine causing obstruction and reduced blood flow.

Non-Surgical Treatments
Dr. Vishal Soni is widely regarded as the best gastro intestinal surgeon in India. For some gastrointestinal conditions, non-invasive treatments may be all that is needed to effectively manage the issue.
Medications
Antacids, H2 blockers, or proton pump inhibitors: They are often employed for the treatment of acid-related illness such as heartburn, acid reflux, and gastritis and for lessening stomach acid.
Antibiotics: For infections including diverticulitis or mild appendicitis, antibiotics eliminate bacterial infections and cause inflammation to decrease.
Laxatives or enemas: These are prescribed for mild bowel obstruction due to stool impaction, improving bowel movements and alleviating constipation.
Lifestyle Modifications
Dietary modifications: Altering your diet can be vital in controlling conditions such as IBS, gastritis, and diverticulosis. Easier-to-digest foods or foods that are lower in fat can quite often make a big difference.
Smoking cessation and stress management: Stopping smoking and stress management can ease GI symptoms and support overall gut health. Both are vital in reducing inflammation and enhancing the function of the digestive system.
Endoscopic Procedures
Endoscopy or colonoscopy: To diagnose and treat illnesses such as ulcers, polyps, or small tumours in the digestive system.
Removal of polyps or localized tumours without surgery: With endoscopic methods, physicians can remove polyps or small tumours in the GI tract without surgery.

Surgical Treatments
For surgical conditions, we offer both minimally invasive procedures, such as laparoscopic and robotic surgeries, and open surgeries. The procedure is chosen based on the complexity and severity of the condition. As a best gastro intestinal surgeon in India, we ensure optimal treatment according to each patient’s requirements.
For Acute Appendicitis:
Laparoscopic Appendectomy: It is a minimally invasive procedure where small cuts are made to take out the infected appendix. It is the most desirable method because of quicker recovery, less pain, and less scarring.
Open Appendectomy: For ruptured appendix or major infection, an open appendectomy is done. An open appendectomy entails a greater cut to reach the appendix and can be needed in complex situations.
For Emergency GI Conditions:
Bowel Obstruction: Surgery can be necessary to take out the obstruction or cut out a portion of the intestine that is involved. The aim is to get the bowel working normally again and alleviate symptoms.
Perforation Repair: If part of the gastrointestinal tract gets a hole (perforation), surgery is necessary to repair the hole and drain the abdominal cavity, avoiding infection and further complications.
Gangrene Treatment: If intestinal or abdominal tissue dies because of a lack of blood supply, dead tissue must be removed through surgery and blood supply restored, preserving healthy tissue.
Volvulus Correction: When the intestine becomes twisted (volvulus), surgery is done to straighten the intestine. The diseased portion of the intestine can be removed if it is required.
For Malignant (Cancerous) Conditions:
Tumour Resection: Malignant tumours of the stomach, small intestine, or colon can be surgically removed. This treats localized cancers and stops the spread.
Colorectal Cancer Surgery: In colorectal cancer, the part of the colon affected can be removed partially or entirely. A temporary or permanent colostomy is sometimes necessary, depending on the severity of the disease.
Lymph Node Excision: If cancer has invaded adjacent lymph nodes, they can be excised to halt further metastasis and enhance results.
