Common Procedures
Appendectomy: Removal of the appendix for appendicitis.
Cholecystectomy: Removal of the gallbladder, usually for gallstones.
Hernia Repair: Fixing weakened muscle walls, often using mesh.
Appendectomy
An appendectomy is the surgical removal of the appendix. The appendix is a finger-like pouch attached to the large intestine and located in the lower right area of the abdomen.
Appendectomy is usually recommended for the treatment of a condition called appendicitis. Appendicitis is a condition in which the appendix becomes inflamed and filled with pus. It is a medical emergency requiring immediate surgical removal of the appendix.
Cholecystectomy
A cholecystectomy is a surgery to remove the gallbladder. The gallbladder is a pear-shaped organ that sits just below the liver on the upper right side of the abdomen. The gallbladder collects and stores a digestive fluid made in the liver called bile.
A cholecystectomy is usually done by inserting a tiny video camera and special tools through several small incisions to see inside your abdomen and remove the gallbladder. This is called a laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
In some cases, one large incision may be used to remove the gallbladder. This is called an open cholecystectomy and requires a longer hospital stay and recovery.
Hernia repair
Hernia repair is a common, often outpatient, surgical procedure to push bulging tissue back into place and strengthen the weakened muscle wall, usually with mesh. Techniques include minimally invasive laparoscopic/robotic surgery (smaller incisions, faster recovery) or open surgery for larger defects. Recovery typically involves avoiding heavy lifting for several weeks.
Common Types of Hernia Repair
Inguinal Hernia Repair: Fixes bulges in the groin area.
Ventral/Incisional Hernia Repair: Fixes bulges at the site of a previous surgical scar.
Umbilical Hernia Repair: Fixes bulges near the belly button.
