The pancreas plays a vital role in digestion and metabolic balance, and diseases affecting it can be painful, debilitating, and sometimes life-threatening. At our center, we provide advanced, multidisciplinary treatment for a wide spectrum of pancreatic conditions. Our team combines medical expertise, state-of-the-art imaging, minimally invasive techniques, and high-precision surgeries to deliver the best outcomes for every patient.
Acute & Chronic Pancreatitis
Acute Pancreatitis
Acute pancreatitis is a sudden inflammation of the pancreas, often caused by gallstones, alcohol use, or high triglycerides. Patients may present with severe abdominal pain, nausea, and vomiting.
Treatment includes:
- Hospitalization and supportive care
- IV fluids and nutrition
- Pain management
- Endoscopic or surgical intervention when needed (e.g., gallstone removal, drainage of collections)
Chronic Pancreatitis
This long-term condition leads to progressive damage, chronic pain, and digestive difficulties.
Management focuses on:
- Pain control
- Enzyme supplements to aid digestion
- Treatment of diabetes if it develops
- Surgical procedures for pain relief or drainage of blocked ducts
Pancreatic Tumors & Cysts
Pancreatic cysts and tumors range from benign to malignant. Early diagnosis and appropriate treatment are crucial.
We offer:
- High-resolution imaging (CT, MRI, EUS)
- Biopsy and cyst fluid evaluation
- Surveillance for low-risk lesions
- Surgical removal for cysts or tumors that pose cancer risk or cause symptoms
Pancreatic Cancer Surgery
Pancreatic cancer is one of the most challenging cancers, but successful treatment is possible with expert surgical care.
Our approach includes:
- Comprehensive preoperative evaluation
- Multidisciplinary tumor board discussions
- Personalized treatment plans combining surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation
- Use of minimally invasive and robotic techniques whenever possible
Surgical removal remains the cornerstone of cure for localized pancreatic cancer.
Whipple Procedure (Pancreaticoduodenectomy)
The Whipple procedure is the most common and complex surgery for cancers of the pancreatic head, bile duct, or duodenum. It involves removal of:
- The pancreatic head
- Part of the bile duct
- Gallbladder
- Duodenum
- Sometimes a portion of the stomach
The digestive tract is then carefully reconstructed.
Performed by experienced surgeons, the Whipple procedure offers excellent long-term survival in selected patients.
Minimally Invasive Pancreatic Surgery
Whenever feasible, we use robotic and laparoscopic surgery to treat pancreatic diseases. These advanced techniques provide:
- Smaller incisions
- Reduced pain
- Lower blood loss
- Shorter hospital stay
- Faster recovery
Procedures include distal pancreatectomy, cyst drainage, and tumor removal using minimally invasive technology.
A Comprehensive, Patient-Centered Approach
From acute pancreatitis to complex pancreatic cancer surgeries, we deliver complete, individualized care backed by expertise, modern technology, and a commitment to patient well-being. Our team ensures that every patient receives the most advanced and appropriate treatment, helping them return to a healthier and more comfortable life.
