Surgeries Clinical Outcome

Latest available data are presented below (2023 where available).
This page summarizes surgical volume, minimally invasive activity, and key procedural categories.

Data note: “Total Number of Surgeries” excludes peritoneal metastases procedures, consistent with the source dataset.

Overview

Key Highlights (Latest Available: 2023)

  • Total number of surgeries: 1066 (2023; excluding peritoneal metastases)
  • Laparoscopic surgeries: 616 (2023; excluding peritoneal metastases)
  • Robotic surgery: Rectum 22 / Colon 24 / Stomach 6 / Lungs 4 (2023)

Numbers shown here are summaries; see details below.

What this service provides

Our surgical services cover a broad range of gastrointestinal, hepatobiliary–pancreatic, thoracic,
breast, vascular and hernia procedures, supported by endoscopic, laparoscopic, and robotic approaches
depending on indication and patient condition.

  • Emergency and elective surgery across multiple organ systems
  • High-volume minimally invasive surgery (laparoscopic) program
  • Robotic surgery for selected cases (e.g., colorectal, stomach, lung)

Surgery Statistics (2021–2023)

Case volumes by organ system are shown across recent years (2021–2023) for trend visibility.
