Polypectomy Treatment in Indore by Dr. Sarang Mahanaik

Polypectomy is a specialized medical procedure for the removal of polyps—abnormal tissue growths, in the digestive tract, most commonly in the colon or stomach. Dr. Sarang Mahanaik, a skilled gastroenterologist in Indore, offers expert polypectomy services to prevent potential complications such as cancer and promote long-term digestive health.

Overview of Polypectomy

Polyps are growths that develop on the lining of the gastrointestinal tract and may be benign or have the potential to become cancerous over time. Polypectomy involves the safe removal of these polyps using endoscopic techniques during procedures like colonoscopy or upper GI endoscopy.

Removing polyps early helps reduce the risk of colorectal and other gastrointestinal cancers, making polypectomy an essential preventive treatment.

Indications and Types of Polyps

Common reasons for polypectomy include:

• Detection of polyps during routine screening colonoscopy or endoscopy

• Polyps causing symptoms such as bleeding or changes in bowel habits

• Polyps with suspicious features that require removal and biopsy

Types of polyps commonly removed:

• Adenomatous polyps (precancerous)

• Hyperplastic polyps (usually benign)

• Inflammatory polyps associated with IBD
