Gastro Intestinal Cancer Surgeries

A Gastrointestinal (GI) tract is a 25 feet long tube that starts from the mouth upto the anus. The journey of the food we eat begins from our mouth, it then goes down through the esophagus into our stomach and the small intestine where the nutrients are extracted. Whatever is the leftover, i.e. the waste is excreted from our body through colon and rectum.

A tumor in any of these organs leads to Gastrointestinal Cancer. GI Cancers have become very common worldwide and can be treated effectively if they are screened at an early stage.

Amongst all the parts, cancer in the colon, i.e. Colorectal Cancer is the most common and treatable cancers by a Gastrointestinal Cancer Surgeon.
