Pediatric Gastrointestinal Surgery in Bangalore

Advanced Surgical Care for Digestive Tract Conditions in Children

Pediatric gastrointestinal (GI) surgery involves the diagnosis and surgical treatment of conditions affecting a child’s digestive system, including the esophagus, stomach, intestines, liver, and rectum. These conditions can be present from birth or develop during childhood and often require specialized surgical expertise tailored to a child’s growing body.

Comprehensive GI surgical care is led by Dr. Antony Robert Charles, a senior pediatric surgeon with extensive experience in managing both routine and complex gastrointestinal conditions in children.

Common Gastrointestinal Conditions Treated

Our pediatric GI surgery services address a wide range of conditions, including:

• Intestinal obstruction

• Hirschsprung’s disease

• Intestinal atresia

• Malrotation of the intestine

• Meckel’s diverticulum

• Anorectal malformations

• Appendicitis and abdominal infections

• Gastrointestinal perforations and emergencies

Each child is carefully evaluated to determine the most appropriate and safest surgical approach.

Child-Centered Surgical Approach

Gastrointestinal surgery in children requires precision, gentle handling, and careful planning. Our approach focuses on minimizing pain, reducing hospital stay, and supporting faster recovery. Whenever appropriate, minimally invasive techniques are used to achieve better outcomes with smaller incisions and less scarring.

Parents are kept fully informed at every stage, from diagnosis and treatment planning to post-operative care and follow-up.

Neonatal and Emergency GI Surgery

Many gastrointestinal conditions are diagnosed in newborns or present as emergencies requiring immediate intervention. Dr. Antony Robert Charles has extensive experience in neonatal GI surgery and emergency abdominal procedures, ensuring timely and life-saving care for infants and children.

Recovery and Long-Term Care

Children generally recover faster than adults after GI surgery. Post-operative care includes pain management, nutritional support, and regular follow-up to monitor healing and growth. Families receive clear guidance on diet, activity, and signs to watch for during recovery.

When Should You Consult a Pediatric GI Surgeon?

Seek medical advice if your child has:

• Persistent vomiting or abdominal pain

• Abdominal distension

• Difficulty passing stools

• Poor feeding or failure to thrive

• Blood in stools

• Congenital digestive abnormalities

Early consultation helps prevent complications and supports healthy development.
