General surgery and laparoscopy
About General surgery and laparoscopy
At University Hospital Sharjah, our General and Laparoscopic Surgery Department provides safe and modern surgical care supported by skilled surgeons and advanced facilities. We offer accurate assessments and effective treatment options, from minimally invasive procedures to complex open surgeries, ensuring a comfortable recovery.
Laparoscopic surgery allows treatment through small incisions, helping patients recover faster with less discomfort. Our team is experienced in managing abdominal problems such as hernias, gallbladder issues, and digestive disorders, as well as conditions involving the skin, soft tissues, head and neck, blood vessels, and endocrine system. We also care for patients with traumatic injuries and those who require critical support.
Symptoms
Our General & Laparoscopic Surgery team at UHS provides expert assessment and treatment for a wide range of surgical conditions. If you experience any of the following symptoms, it may be time to consult a specialist:
Persistent Abdominal Pain or Swelling
Severe or continuous abdominal pain may indicate gallbladder disease, appendicitis, or gastrointestinal issues requiring surgical attention.
Lumps or Bulges in the Abdomen or Groin
A noticeable bulge could be a hernia that often requires timely repair to avoid complications.
Gallbladder-Related Symptoms
Sharp upper abdominal pain, nausea, or vomiting after meals may indicate gallstones or inflammation needing laparoscopic intervention.
Chronic or Unexplained Bleeding
Bleeding from the digestive tract or internal bleeding should be evaluated promptly as surgery may be required.
Infections or Abscesses That Do Not Heal
Persistent infections may need surgical drainage or removal of affected tissues.
Sudden Severe Pain After Injury or Trauma
Internal injuries from accidents may require emergency surgical care.
Difficulty Eating or Digestive Obstruction
Vomiting, severe pain, or inability to eat may signal a blockage in the digestive tract that needs urgent evaluation.
