Gastrointestinal Surgical Conditions Treated
Surgical gastroenterology covers a broad range of conditions involving the digestive system. Depending on the diagnosis, treatment may involve medication, monitoring, minimally invasive procedures or surgery.
- Gallbladder Stones: Gallstones can cause abdominal pain, indigestion, nausea and other digestive symptoms. When surgery is required, gallbladder removal may be considered based on the patient's condition.
- Hernia: A hernia develops when internal tissue pushes through a weakened area of the abdominal wall. Surgical repair may be recommended to restore the affected area and reduce the risk of complications.
- Pancreatic Conditions: Certain pancreatic disorders may require specialised surgical evaluation. Treatment depends on the underlying condition and its location, severity and effect on surrounding structures.
- Liver Conditions: Selected liver conditions may require surgical intervention. Dr. Ketul Shah has specialised training and experience in liver and HPB surgery.
- Gastrointestinal Cancers: Cancers involving the stomach, intestine, liver, pancreas and other parts of the digestive system may require multidisciplinary evaluation and surgical treatment.
- Bile Duct Conditions: Blockages, strictures and other disorders affecting the bile ducts may require specialist assessment and, in selected cases, surgical treatment.
- Spleen Conditions: Certain disorders involving the spleen can require surgical management after detailed evaluation.
- Complex GI & HPB Conditions: Advanced diseases involving interconnected organs of the digestive and hepatobiliary system may require specialised surgical planning.
Advanced Laparoscopic Gastrointestinal Surgery
Laparoscopic surgery uses small incisions and specialised instruments to perform selected surgical procedures. Compared with conventional open surgery, minimally invasive approaches may result in smaller incisions and may support a smoother postoperative recovery in appropriately selected patients.

His professional experience also includes involvement with a liver transplant surgical team, including exposure to living-donor, cadaver-donor and pediatric liver transplant procedures.
CRS + HIPEC
For selected patients with advanced cancers involving the abdominal cavity, a specialised treatment approach known as Cytoreductive Surgery (CRS) with Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy (HIPEC) may be considered.
CRS involves removing visible cancer deposits during surgery, followed by the administration of heated chemotherapy directly within the abdominal cavity. Whether this treatment is appropriate depends on the type, extent and characteristics of the cancer and requires evaluation by an experienced oncology and surgical team.
Dr. Ketul Shah has received training in CRS + HIPEC as part of his GI and HPB oncology experience.
