Description

Colonoscopy is a diagnostic procedure used to examine the inner lining of the large intestine using a flexible tube equipped with a camera and light. It allows for direct visualization of the colon and is essential in identifying a variety of conditions affecting the large bowel. Dr. Amilthan K, a skilled general and laparoscopic surgeon based in Chennai, offers colonoscopy as part of his advanced gastrointestinal diagnostic services. This procedure is often advised for individuals experiencing rectal bleeding, unexplained weight loss, persistent constipation, changes in bowel habits, or those with a family history of colorectal cancer. It is also a valuable tool in screening for colon polyps, inflammatory bowel disease, and early signs of colon cancer. When abnormalities are detected during the procedure, Dr. Amilthan provides personalized treatment recommendations tailored to the patient's condition. This may include medical management for inflammation or timely surgical intervention when necessary, especially in the presence of polyps, growths, or signs of malignancy. With a focus on precision, safety, and patient comfort, Dr. Amilthan ensures that each colonoscopy is performed with utmost care to aid early diagnosis and effective treatment.
