Abdominal surgery /Gastrointestinal diseases

• the gastrointestinal system, including gastric ulcers, chronic inflammation of the small and large intestines, haemorrhoids, unresolved abdominal pain and suspected intestinal cancer, amongst others
• gall bladder stones
• the abdominal wall, including hernia in the groin area, umbilical hernia and ventral hernia
  In the investigation and treatment, the newest, gentle endoscopic minimal invasive surgical techniques are used which cause fewer post-surgery issues and, thus, shorter admission and absence due to illness.

Abdominal surgeries carried out by endoscopic surgical techniques

• Gall bladder surgery
• Hernia surgery
• Diagnostic laparoscopy
• Haemorroidal disease, ano rectal diseases
• Advanced Endoscopy (Colonoscopy with polyp removal, sigmoidoscopy, gastroscopy).

Center of abdominal Surgery is owned and managed by Thorbjørn Sommer, MD, PhD, Specialist in general, colorectal and bariatric surgery, who attends to the functions of the Centre in collaboration with Christian Allerslev Frandsen MD General Surgeon, Henrik MD,PhD Colorectal Surgeon and Jens Fromholt Larsen, MD, PhD Upper GI and Bariatric Surgeon.

The centre admits patients both with and without referral from their general medical practitioner. On primary contact, an interview and objective examination is carried out. If surgery is required, this is planned in collaboration with the patient which means that all paperwork has been completed by the end of the preliminary examination. If needed there is quick acces to CT, MRI and Ultrasound scan.Examination, treatment and follow-up are carried out by the same specialist medical practitioner.
