Gastrectomy - (gastreclomy) - is a surgical operation in which the entire stomach or part of it is removed (gastrectomy - complete removal of the stomach - rare). Total gastrectomy (total gastrectomy), in which the entire stomach is removed with the creation of an esophagojejunostomy, is usually performed for stomach cancer and, less frequently, for Zollinger-Ellison syndrome. In partial (partial) (or subtotal gastrectomy (subtotal gastrectomy)), part of the stomach is removed, and the upper third or half of the stomach is connected to the duodenum or small intestine (gastroenterostomy).
Recently, surgeons in Israel have been striving to use minimally invasive techniques for stomach surgeries and to perform procedures and operations with minimal penetration into the body.
The general surgery department at Top Ichilov offers unique treatments, employing innovative, minimally invasive techniques that allow patients, even after the most complex surgeries, to undergo a brief rehabilitation period and restore or improve their quality of life.
Today, you have a unique opportunity to consult with the best surgeons in Israel.
