Gastrectomy Treatment in India

Gastrectomy is a surgical procedure to remove part or all of the stomach, typically performed for stomach cancer, severe ulcers, or benign gastric tumors. The procedure can be partial (removing a portion of the stomach) or total (removing the entire stomach) and can be performed via open surgery or minimally invasive laparoscopic/robotic techniques.

India provides advanced gastrointestinal surgery services, experienced surgeons, and comprehensive pre- and post-operative care.

Indications for Gastrectomy

  • Stomach cancer (gastric carcinoma)

  • Large or symptomatic benign tumors of the stomach

  • Peptic ulcer disease unresponsive to medical therapy

  • Severe bleeding, perforation, or obstruction in the stomach

  • Genetic risk factors for stomach cancer requiring preventive surgery
