Minimally Invasive Techniques: Dr. Malladi Leads the Way in Advanced Gallbladder Surgery
Gallbladder removal surgery, also known as cholecystectomy, is a common procedure performed to address issues like gallstones and inflammation. Traditionally, this procedure involved a larger incision in the abdomen. However, advancements in medical technology have paved the way for minimally invasive techniques, offering significant benefits for patients.
At Malladi Bariatrics & Advanced Surgery, Dr. Preeti Malladi, a board-certified and highly experienced surgeon, is a leading proponent of minimally invasive gallbladder surgery. Let’s explore these advanced techniques and why Dr. Malladi is the perfect choice for your gallbladder surgery needs.
Minimally Invasive Techniques for Gallbladder Surgery:
- Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy: This is the most common minimally invasive technique. Dr. Malladi makes a few small incisions in the abdomen and inserts a laparoscope, a thin instrument with a camera and light source. Through the laparoscope, she visualizes the surgical site and uses specialized instruments inserted through the other incisions to remove the gallbladder.
- Robotic-Assisted Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy: This technique utilizes the same principles as laparoscopic surgery, but Dr. Malladi operates the instruments using a robotic console. The robotic arms offer enhanced precision and control, potentially leading to improved outcomes in some cases.
Benefits of Minimally Invasive Techniques:
- Smaller incisions: This translates to less pain and scarring.
- Faster recovery: Patients typically experience shorter hospital stays and quicker return to daily activities.
- Reduced risk of infection: Smaller incisions minimize the risk of infection compared to open surgery.
- Improved cosmetic outcome: Smaller incisions leave minimal visible scars.
