Colorectal Surgery in Hyderabad — Laparoscopic, Robotic & TAMIS Expertise

Colorectal disease — ranging from haemorrhoids and diverticulitis to inflammatory bowel disease and colorectal cancer — demands a surgeon with both advanced technical skill and a compassionate understanding of what patients go through. Dr. Sujeeth Kumar Bashetty brings both to every consultation and procedure at Apollo Hospitals, Hyderabad.

As a FICRS fellow (Fellow of the International College of Robotic Surgeons), Dr. Kumar offers the full spectrum of modern colorectal surgery, from minimally invasive laparoscopic procedures to precision robotic-assisted surgery and transanal techniques.

Conditions Treated

✓Colorectal cancer — curative and palliative surgery
✓Ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease (IBD)
✓Diverticular disease and diverticulitis
✓Rectal prolapse
✓Polyps — laparoscopic or transanal removal
✓Haemorrhoids (advanced / recurrent cases)
✓Anal fistula and fissure
✓Faecal incontinence

Surgical Techniques Offered

Laparoscopic Colorectal Surgery

Colectomies, rectal resections, and sphincter-sparing procedures performed through small keyhole incisions with high-definition laparoscopic visualisation.

Robotic-Assisted Colorectal Surgery

Using robotic technology, Dr. Kumar achieves unparalleled precision in complex operations — particularly deep pelvic surgery, sphincter preservation, and tumour resection near critical structures.

Transanal Minimally Invasive Surgery (TAMIS)

For rectal lesions and selected rectal cancers, TAMIS allows removal through the anus — no abdominal incisions. Patients recover faster with minimal discomfort.

Advantages of Minimally Invasive Colorectal Surgery

✓Shorter hospital stay — typically 2–4 days versus 7–10 for open surgery
✓Less post-operative pain and faster mobilisation
✓Minimal external scarring
✓Reduced risk of wound infection and hernia
✓Enhanced surgical precision — critical in pelvic and sphincter-preserving surgery
✓Lower long-term complication rates

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is the success rate of colorectal surgery?

A: Success rates depend heavily on the specific condition and stage. For early-stage colorectal cancer (Stage I), curative resection rates exceed 90%. Dr. Kumar discusses realistic expectations and outcomes with each patient before surgery.

Q: How long is recovery after laparoscopic colorectal surgery?

A: Most patients are mobile within 24 hours and discharged within 3–5 days. Full return to normal activity typically takes 2–4 weeks, compared to 6–8 weeks after open surgery.

Q: Can colorectal cancer always be treated with laparoscopic surgery?

A: In the majority of colorectal cancer cases, laparoscopic surgery is feasible and oncologically equivalent to open surgery. Dr. Kumar assesses each case individually, and complex tumours may require robotic assistance for optimal precision.
