Resection of large intestine in West Hospital
About the clinic
Resection of the large intestine at West Hospital in Baku, Azerbaijan, is a surgical procedure to remove part or all of the bowel. This surgery helps treat serious conditions like malignant tumors, benign growths, and inflammatory bowel diseases. The surgical team uses both traditional open methods and minimally invasive laparoscopic techniques to improve patient recovery.
Advanced Surgical Approaches
Surgeons at West Hospital perform large intestine resection in the specialized General Surgery department. The choice between an open or laparoscopic approach depends on the patient's specific diagnosis. Laparoscopic surgery uses small incisions, which often results in less pain and a faster return to daily activities. This method is common for treating non-specific inflammatory bowel diseases and various tumors of the intestinal tract.

The surgical team includes highly qualified specialists with significant clinical backgrounds. Dr. Mirsaleh Abdullayev is a general surgeon with over 15 years of experience and holds a PhD in medicine. He is known for his research on laser applications in surgery and his work in plastic-reconstructive techniques. Dr. Anar Namazov also treats patients here, bringing a record of 1,000+ performed procedures. Dr. Namazov previously served as a department head at the Central Clinical Hospital and has published over 40 scientific works.
Coordinated Hospital Care
West Hospital functions as a multidisciplinary medical center with 24 different departments. This structure helps medical teams coordinate care before and after the operation. Patients have access to specialists across various fields to manage their overall health during the surgical process.
