Common types of abdominal surgeries

Our surgeons perform abdominal surgery to treat conditions that affect a number of aspects of the body.

Appendectomy

An appendectomy is the surgical removal of the appendix, a small organ attached to the large intestine in the right lower quadrant of the abdomen.

Colon and Rectal Surgery

We understand that colon and rectal surgery aren't exactly something you want to talk about with a stranger. So one of our goals is to ensure our patients are completely comfortable discussing the best treatments for their particular situations.

Dialysis

Esophagus & Stomach Surgery

When it comes to surgical treatment for acid reflux and other esophageal and stomach diseases, Lincoln Surgical offers a number of options for minimally invasive foregut surgery.

Gallbladder Removal (Cholecystectomy)

A cholecystectomy is a laparoscopic surgical procedure to remove the gallbladder, which is a pear-shaped organ that sits in the upper right abdomen, directly below the liver.

Hernia Repair

If you are experiencing pain or discomfort in the navel or groin area, especially when you cough, pick up a heavy object, or stand for too long, it could be a hernia.

Liver Surgeries

A liver biopsy is performed to obtain a small sample of liver tissue that will be evaluated under a microscope for signs of damage, liver cancer, or other liver diseases.

Splenectomy

A splenectomy is the removal of the spleen, which is an organ in the upper left abdomen that sits directly underneath the rib cage.
