Bile duct stone removal uses ERCP techniques — sphincterotomy, balloon or basket extraction and sometimes lithotripsy — to clear stones from the common bile duct. After cannulation, a sphincterotomy is often performed. Stones are extracted with a balloon or basket; mechanical lithotripsy is added when needed. A temporary stent may be left if clearance is incomplete.

Chennai has a broader gastroenterology ecosystem, but this page does not infer that every listed centre performs upper GI endoscopy. Doctor and hospital cards in Chennai resolve only from exact live CMS relationships for Upper GI Endoscopy (Gastroscopy). If that relationship is absent, cards must remain empty; a generic gastroenterology or endoscopy label cannot verify current case acceptance. This is a catalog gap, not a ranking or availability claim. 2 listed gastroenterology specialists currently appear for Chennai, across 1 hospital in the catalog.
A doctor appears only when the GAF catalog records the matching Gastroenterology specialty, location and, where selected, exact procedure relationship. Results are not ranked by outcomes or medical superiority.
This directory uses professional catalog information and exact specialty and procedure relationships. It does not constitute a medical ranking, guarantee availability or replace a case review by a qualified gastroenterologist.
2 gastroenterologists currently carry this procedure mapping in Chennai. That count is directory evidence, not a claim that every listed clinician currently accepts every case.

Heat can worsen dehydration after prep, POEM or metabolic endoscopy. Fluid and diet targets must come from the treating team.

Initially I was very hesitant what to do, where to go for the treatment of my father who was suffering with prostate cancer. Thanks to google, I came into touch with Gaf Healthcare. They have arranged everything, starting from treatment plan, video consultation, airport pickup, to surgery and following up. My father was operated in Sahyadri Pune, robotic prostatectomy was done. Now he is fine.
