Choosing Fortis Malar Hospital for Foregut Surgery gives patients access to experienced foregut surgeons, advanced gastrointestinal imaging and endoscopy, minimally invasive and robotic surgical systems, and structured postoperative care. Established in 1989, the NABH accredited hospital in Chennai, India has 180 beds and provides specialized treatment for complex upper gastrointestinal conditions.

Foregut Surgery is performed under appropriate anaesthesia, with the technique determined by the specific disorder being treated. Minimally invasive procedures may involve small abdominal or thoracic incisions through which specialized instruments and a camera are introduced. Depending on the operation, surgeons may repair weakened tissues, reposition the stomach, divide abnormal muscle, remove diseased portions of the esophagus or stomach, or reconstruct the gastrointestinal tract. Postoperative monitoring focuses on recovery of gastrointestinal function, nutrition, pain control, and potential surgical complications.
