Gastrointestinal surgeon

A gastrointestinal surgeon operates on a range of surgical conditions which affect the digestive tract. This includes both the upper and lower parts of the digestive tract.

The gastrointestinal tract or ‘GI’ is divided into the upper GI tract, lower GI tract and accessory organs. It starts from the mouth and runs down the body to the exit or anus.

It consists of the stomach, small intestine, large intestine, oesophagus, pharynx, rectum and anus. The accessory organs are the liver, pancreas, gall bladder and salivary glands.

Examples of gastrointestinal surgery include:

  • Haemorrhoidectomy
  • Roux en Y gastric bypass
  • Liver resection
  • Colostomy
  • Hernia repair
  • Cholecystostomy

Some surgeons specialise in upper GI conditions whereas others choose lower GI disorders only.
