What is General Surgery?
General surgery involves surgical treatment for conditions affecting various parts of the body, including the abdomen, digestive tract, endocrine system, breast, skin, and soft tissues. Our general surgeons are skilled in both elective (planned) and emergency surgeries, ensuring you receive timely and effective care.
Common Procedures in General Surgery

- Procedure: The appendix is removed through a small incision, often using minimally invasive techniques.
Cholecystectomy

Preoperative and Postoperative Care
Preoperative Care
- Consultation: Your journey begins with a consultation where our surgeons assess your condition, discuss treatment options, and explain the surgical procedure in detail.
- Preoperative Tests: We conduct necessary tests, such as blood work, imaging studies, and EKG, to ensure you are fit for surgery.
- Preparation: You’ll receive detailed instructions on how to prepare for your surgery, including fasting guidelines, medication adjustments, and what to expect on the day of surgery.
Postoperative Care
- Monitoring: After surgery, you’ll be closely monitored in our recovery area to ensure your comfort and safety.
- Pain Management: We provide effective pain management strategies to minimize discomfort.
- Wound Care: Our team will guide you on how to care for your surgical wounds and recognize signs of infection or complications.
- Follow-Up: Regular follow-up appointments are scheduled to monitor your recovery and address any concerns.
Minimally Invasive Surgery
At Cayra Hospital, we prioritize minimally invasive techniques whenever possible. These advanced surgical methods involve smaller incisions, less pain, and quicker recovery times compared to traditional open surgery. Laparoscopic surgery is a key component of our minimally invasive approach and is commonly used in procedures like gallbladder removal, hernia repair, and appendectomy.
Benefits of Minimally Invasive Surgery
Smaller incisions result in less postoperative pain and discomfort.
Patients often experience quicker recovery and can return home sooner
Smaller wounds minimize the risk of infection.
Patients typically resume normal activities faster than with traditional surgery.
