Introduction
General surgery covers a wide variety of surgical procedures on the body spanning several different specialties available at Hospital Picaso. Here, the solutions we provide as part of general surgery employ minimally invasive techniques as well as other advanced surgical solutions. Our general surgeons work closely with other specialists, diagnosing and providing timely surgical interventions.
Common Conditions
You may require general surgery for a broad range of conditions. The vast majority of these conditions can be treated with laparoscopic (minimally invasive surgery).
- Appendicitis
- Haemorrhoids
- Gallstones
- Hernia
Treatments
Our general surgery services at Hospital Picaso include:
- Appendectomy
- Haemorrhoidectomy
- Laparoscopic gallbladder surgery
- Laparoscopic hernia repair
- Laparoscopic splenectomy
- Thyroidectomy
Additionally, we also provide bariatric (weight loss) surgery options. You may consider bariatric surgery if you have not achieved adequate weight loss through lifestyle changes and are suffering significant health problems stemming from obesity.
Bariatric procedures range from minimally invasive surgery aimed at reducing the size of the stomach to non-surgical procedures like the intragastric balloon — a silicone balloon inserted into the stomach that can reduce appetite. Both of these procedures result in weight loss and generally provide better long-term health benefits compared to cosmetic procedures like liposuction.
