Paediatric gastrointestinal (GI) conditions include a variety of congenital and acquired surgical disorders of the esophagus, stomach, intestines, liver, and biliary tree, such as appendicitis, bowel obstruction, and abdominal cysts.
These conditions arise from diverse developmental and inflammatory processes:
GI symptoms in children require prompt evaluation:
Paediatric gastrointestinal anomalies often present as emergencies in newborns or as chronic issues affecting growth in older children. Prompt surgical correction of congenital defects is essential to establish a functioning digestive tract and prevent life-threatening complications. Timely intervention ensures that the child receives adequate nutrition and avoids long-term developmental delays.
Our paediatric GI surgery team collaborates closely with neonatologists, gastroenterologists, and dietitians. We emphasize minimally invasive surgery to ensure faster recovery, less pain, and minimal scarring. Post-operative care is tailored to support the child's nutritional needs and monitor their growth trajectory, providing a complete continuum of care from diagnosis to full recovery.
Minimally invasive approaches for conditions like appendicitis, gallbladder issues, and reflux.
Complex surgical repair of congenital anomalies such as esophageal atresia and imperforate anus.
Post-surgical dietary management to ensure optimal healing, growth, and digestive function.
We use advanced imaging (Contrast enemas, X-rays) to precisely locate the GI obstruction or defect before proceeding to the operating room.
Our surgeries focus on preserving the delicate nerve supply and muscle structure of the bowel to ensure the best possible long-term function.
Recovery involves a structured approach to resuming feeds and, in some cases, a specialized bowel management program to ensure normal toileting.
"We traveled from another city just to consult Dr. Chowdhary for our child's complex GI issue. His diagnostic clarity and surgical precision are truly unmatched."
"Our baby was born with Hirschsprung's. Dr. Sujit performed the pull-through surgery beautifully. Today, our son is growing perfectly normal. Highly recommended!"
"Dr. Chowdhary is a lifesaver. My daughter's emergency surgery for intestinal obstruction was handled with such calm and expertise. We are forever grateful."
"Finding a doctor who truly understands the complexity of paediatric GI conditions was a relief. Our daughter's health has improved drastically under his care."
"We traveled from another city just for Dr. Chowdhary. His reputation is well-deserved; his approach is very scientific and methodical yet very caring."
"The nursing staff and Dr. Sujit are a fantastic team. They handled our infant's surgery with so much care and warmth. Highly recommended for any parent."
GI surgeries in newborns require extreme delicacy and a deep understanding of developmental anatomy.
Pediatric GI surgery manages congenital anomalies and acquired diseases of the esophagus, stomach, intestines, liver, and biliary system.
Surgery (Nissen Fundoplication) is performed to wrap the top of the stomach around the lower esophagus, preventing reflux when medical therapy fails.
They are diagnosed via X-rays, contrast studies, and clinical symptoms like green (bilious) vomiting and abdominal distension.
It is a minimally invasive approach using keyhole incisions to perform procedures like fundoplication, splenectomy, and bowel resections.
Recovery includes specialized IV nutrition (TPN) if needed, pain management, and a gradual return to oral feeding as the bowel heals.
It is a narrowing of the stomach outlet in infants, causing projectile vomiting, cured by a simple surgical procedure (pyloromyotomy).
Most children recover completely and grow normally as the intestine adapts remarkably well after reconstruction.
