Comprehensive Liver Surgery at Alfa Gastro & Liver Care Hospital
The liver is one of the most vital organs in the body, responsible for purification, metabolism, digestion, and detoxification. When serious liver conditions develop—such as tumors, cysts, cirrhosis, or traumatic injuries—surgical intervention may be required.
At Alfa Gastro & Liver Care Hospital, our skilled HPB (Hepato-Pancreato-Biliary) surgeons offer advanced liver surgeries using modern, minimally invasive, and open surgical techniques. Our goal is to ensure precision, safety, faster recovery, and long-term health for every patient.
Types of Liver Surgeries We Perform
Hepatectomy (Liver Resection)
A hepatectomy involves removing a part of the liver to treat:
-
Primary liver cancer
-
Metastatic liver tumors (spread from other organs)
-
Benign liver masses
Depending on the condition, surgeons may perform:
-
Partial Hepatectomy – removal of a segment or lobe of the liver
-
Total Hepatectomy – complete removal of the liver (followed by a transplant)
Because the liver has the natural ability to regenerate, patients often experience excellent recovery outcomes.
Laparoscopic Liver Surgery
Minimally invasive liver surgery performed through keyhole incisions:
-
Less postoperative pain
-
Faster recovery
-
Minimal scarring
-
Shorter hospital stay
Used for:
-
Small liver tumors
-
Liver cyst removal
-
Select benign lesions
Liver Cyst Treatment
Liver cysts are usually harmless but may require surgery when:
-
They grow large
-
Cause pain
-
Become infected or symptomatic
Surgeons may drain or excise the cyst using minimally invasive techniques.
Liver Biopsy
A liver biopsy is performed to diagnose:
-
Cirrhosis
-
Hepatitis
-
Fatty liver disease
-
Liver tumors
-
Unexplained liver abnormalities
It is done using:
-
Percutaneous (needle biopsy)
-
Laparoscopic biopsy
-
Transjugular biopsy (for specific patients)
Bile Duct Surgery (HPB Surgery)
Liver function is closely connected to the bile ducts. Surgery may be needed for:
-
Bile duct tumors
-
Choledochal cysts
-
Blockages or strictures
-
Bile duct injuries
-
Congenital abnormalities
Procedures may include bile duct excision, reconstruction, or biliary drainage.
Portal Hypertension Surgery (Shunt Surgery)
Portal hypertension occurs due to advanced liver disease and causes increased pressure in the portal vein.
Surgery may be required to:
-
Reduce vein pressure
-
Prevent bleeding
-
Improve blood flow
Shunt surgery is performed to redirect blood flow and reduce complications.
