What is Small Intestine?
The small intestine, also known as the small bowel, aids in the breakdown of food and the absorption of nutrients from it. Small intestine surgery helps patients lower the risk of various life-threatening problems such as inflammation, Meckel’s diverticulum, injuries or blockage in the small intestine, precancerous polyps, ulcers, non-cancerous or cancerous tumors, and many such disorders.
Small Intestine Surgery
Gastrointestinal small intestine surgery, also known as small bowel resection, is a small intestine surgery that aids in the reduction of any gastrointestinal or digestive tract disorder or complications. It is used to treat any inflammation, infection, or tumour in the small intestine. The surgery also helps in resecting any damaged parts of the small intestine, which may include the duodenum, jejunum, and ileum. Depending on the patient's complications, the problem can range from mild to severe.
Causes & Symptoms of Small Intestine Diseases
Any disorder or dysfunction of the small intestine can badly affect your daily routine. This dysfunction can occur due to an unhealthy diet, irregular bowel movements, certain medicines, inflammation due to Crohn's disease, regional enteritis or regional ileitis, etc.
Symptoms
- Frequent constipation or diarrhea
- Incisional hernia
- Abdominal pus collection
- Nausea and vomiting
Treatments of Small Bowel
Laparoscopic
This procedure makes 3-5 small incisions on the abdomen and inserts the laparoscope device through one incision while performing the surgery with the others. The device helps monitor the infected area and displays it on a computer.
Endoscopic
The treatment uses an endoscope, an instrument with a laser and camera attachment, to diagnose and treat certain GI conditions. It is inserted through the mouth, nose, or other natural openings in the body.
Robotic
The surgeon performs small intestine surgery by using a computerised system to manipulate mechanical arms that are holding a camera and surgical tools. Compared to human hands and wrists, robotic arms have a wider range of motion, offering greater flexibility for difficult, delicate treatments.
Open surgery
It involves making one large cut and treating the infected area manually.

Challenges

Cost of Small Intestine Surgery
In India, the average cost of small intestine surgery is around 1,50,000 INR. It is costly, as it requires extensive use of technologies and concentration. The cost of the surgery will depend on a number of factors, including the extent of the infection, the size and location of the tumor, and whether a person has any serious health problems.
