Solid Organ Surgeries

Solid organ surgery involves the spleen, adrenal glands and liver — for tumours, cysts, trauma and haematological conditions. Most of these operations are now carried out laparoscopically, with quicker recovery and less blood loss.

Types of solid organ surgery

• Splenectomy
• Adrenalectomy
• Liver surgeries
• Liver resection or lobectomy (removal of part of the liver)
• Liver transplant
