Gastroenterology

Bombay Hospital has a well-equipped endoscopy department where diagnostic, therapeutic as well as emergency procedures in gastroenterology are performed. The department also performs procedures like percutaneous and trans-jugular liver biopsy, Hepatic Venous Pressure Gradient (HVPG) monitoring, and Transjugular Intrahepatic Porto systemic Stent (TIPSS) placement.

The procedures most commonly performed include:

• UGI Endoscopy -
  Examination of the upper gastrointestinal tract using a flexible video-endoscope.
  Diagnostic – for disorders like acid-peptic disease, H. pylori infection, gastro-esophageal reflux disease, cancers of the esophagus and stomach.
  Therapeutic – for management of emergencies like variceal bleeding (procedures like sclerotherapy, variceal banding), endoscopic therapy for bleeding peptic ulcer by injection, application of hemoclips or thermal current, placement of percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) tube or jejunostomy as a feeding device for neurologically impaired individuals or those who are unable to swallow. We also perform endotherapy for early cancers and place stents for palliation of obstructive malignant lesions.
• Colonoscopy -
  Examination of the lower gastrointestinal tract using a flexible video-endoscope.
  Diagnostic – for disorders like polyps, cancers, strictures, bleeding sites, diverticuli.
  Therapeutic – for management of colonic obstruction with stenting, endotherapy for lower gastrointestinal bleeding, and polypectomy.

• ERCP (Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangio pancreatography)
  This procedure involves treating various Biliary-pancreatic disorders. These include obstructive jaundice caused by common bile duct stones (extraction of the stones) or relieving obstruction in biliary-pancreatic cancers by placement of plastic or metal stents. ERCP also aids in obtaining tumor tissue cytology/biopsy from the bile duct to confirm the diagnosis in suspected cases of malignancy. It is helpful in procuring tissue for examination and aids in difficult biliary and pancreatic therapeutic endoscopic procedures.
• EUS (Endoscopic Ultrasonography)
  With EUS, our Leading gastroenterologist in Mumbai can take a close and detailed look at the digestive tract, pancreas, and surrounding tissues. It’s minimally invasive and gives accurate results, help us diagnose and treat a variety of digestive issues with precision.
• Capsule Endoscopy
  For certain conditions, such as suspected Crohn’s disease or unexplained small intestine bleeding, we use capsule endoscopy. Patients simply swallow a tiny capsule with a camera inside, which takes thousands of pictures as it travels through the intestine, all without any discomfort.
