General surgery

What is general surgery?

General surgery is concerned with the diagnosis and treatment of abnormalities affecting several parts of the body: the esophagus, stomach, small intestine, colon, liver, pancreas, gallbladder, bile ducts, breast, etc.

Our team takes care of several categories of diseases, especially:

• Proctology (anal abscess, hemorrhoids, anal fissures, rectovaginal fistula, etc.).
• Visceral emergencies (appendicitis, pancreatitis, peritonitis, caustic esophagitis, acute bowel obstruction, abdominal trauma, gallstones, etc.).
• Digestive cancers (esophageal cancer, gastric cancer, pancreatic cancer, colon cancer, rectal cancer and liver tumors).

What is the specificity of our team?

Our team performs advanced minimally invasive (laparoscopic) surgery, notably for cancers of the digestive tract, with early recovery (fast track). It ensures a shorter post-operative stay, greater comfort, early resumption of socio-professional activities and a better aesthetic result (fewer scars).
