Esophageal Surgery by Dr. Arun Prasad
Esophageal surgery is performed to treat diseases of the food pipe that affect swallowing, digestion and quality of life. It may be required for achalasia, reflux disease, hiatal hernia, tumors, strictures, perforation or other complex esophageal conditions.
Dr. Arun Prasad provides esophageal surgery after detailed evaluation of symptoms, endoscopy findings, barium swallow, CT scan, manometry, biopsy if required, medical history and overall patient condition.
Choosing an experienced esophageal surgeon is important because the right treatment depends on the disease type, location, severity and patient health. Laparoscopic or robotic surgery may be suitable for many selected patients.
