The department performs surgeries such as appendectomy, cholecystectomy, gastrectomy, and colectomy/rectectomy. The department handles various liver, gallbladder, and pancreatic surgeries such as benign liver tumors, malignant liver tumors, bile duct tumors, bile duct stones, pancreatic duct stones, and pancreatic tumors. It also treats anorectal diseases such as rectal prolapse, hemorrhoids, and anal fistulas. Abdominal diseases include inguinal hernias and abdominal wall hernias, as well as thyroid surgery.
