General Surgery (Hernia, Gallstones & Hemorrhoids)

Advanced laparoscopic cholecystectomy (gallstones), laparoscopic hernia repair (TAPP/TEP/IPOM), and modern painless laser proctology for hemorrhoids, fissures, and fistula.

Clinical Focus: General surgical conditions such as symptomatic gallstones, abdominal wall hernias, and anorectal disorders can cause debilitating pain and life-threatening complications if left untreated. Dr. Malyadri Paladugu (FIAGES, Fellow in Advanced Laparoscopic Surgery) provides cutting-edge minimally invasive laparoscopic and laser surgical solutions designed for rapid recovery, minimal pain, and zero recurrence.

General & Laparoscopic Conditions Treated

  • Gallbladder Stones & Cholecystitis: Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy (Keyhole Gallbladder Removal) for symptomatic gallstones, biliary colic, and gallbladder polyps.
  • Inguinal (Groin) Hernias: Laparoscopic TAPP (Transabdominal Preperitoneal) and TEP (Totally Extraperitoneal) tension-free 3D mesh repair.
  • Ventral, Umbilical & Incisional Hernias: Laparoscopic IPOM (Intraperitoneal Onlay Mesh) and eTEP / Rives-Stoppa sublay anatomical abdominal wall reconstruction.
  • Anorectal Proctology (Piles / Hemorrhoids): Modern Laser Hemorrhoidoplasty (LHP) and Stapler Hemorrhoidopexy (MIPH) for painless, cut-free recovery.
  • Anal Fissures & Complex Fistula-in-Ano: Laser Sphincterotomy and FiLaC (Fistula-tract Laser Closure) preserving fecal continence.
  • Appendicitis: Emergency and planned Single-Incision / 3-Port Laparoscopic Appendectomy.

Diagnostic Workup & Safety Protocols

High-Resolution Ultrasound

Detailed abdominal sonography to assess stone size, gallbladder wall thickness, common bile duct (CBD) diameter, and hernia defect dimensions.

Anorectal Clinical Staging

High-resolution digital proctoscopy and Pelvic MRI Fistulogram for complex branching perianal fistula tracts.

Pre-Anesthetic Clearance

Comprehensive baseline ECG, cardiac evaluation, coagulation profile, and complete metabolic workup.

Frequently Asked Questions

No. Medicines cannot safely or permanently dissolve gallstones. Symptomatic gallstones can lead to acute cholecystitis, jaundice, or life-threatening acute pancreatitis. Laparoscopic keyhole cholecystectomy is the permanent, gold-standard cure.
Laser Hemorrhoidoplasty (LHP) shrinks the hemorrhoidal tissue from within using targeted laser energy without any cutting or open wounds. It causes minimal post-operative pain, zero blood loss, and allows patients to return to routine activities within 24 to 48 hours.
Light walking and routine desk work can be resumed within 2 to 3 days. Moderate exercise can be started in 2 to 3 weeks, while heavy weightlifting and intense contact sports should be deferred for 6 weeks until the mesh fully integrates.
