Gastroenterology & Hepatobiliary Interventional Procedures

• Angioembolization and coiling in gastrointestinal emergency bleeding: This procedure helps control severe bleeding in the gastrointestinal tract by blocking the affected blood vessels.

• Percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage (PTBD) and stenting: Used to relieve obstructions in the bile ducts, often caused by tumors or stones.

• Percutaneous cholecystostomy/Pancreatic collection drainages: Minimally invasive methods to drain infected or fluid-filled areas in the gallbladder or pancreas.

• CT/Ultrasound guided percutaneous catheter drainage (PCD) for intra-abdominal collections: Used to remove abscesses or infected fluids from the abdomen.

• Shunt occlusion procedures (PARTO, BRTO, CARTO) in gastric variceal related bleeding or refractory hepatic encephalopathy: These procedures help manage complications of liver disease by redirecting blood flow.

• TIPS in variceal bleed or recurrent ascites: Transjugular Intrahepatic Portosystemic Shunt (TIPS) creates new connections between blood vessels in the liver to treat portal hypertension.

• Portal vein embolization for hepatic resection: This procedure prepares the liver for surgery by blocking blood flow to certain areas, encouraging growth in others.

• Pre-operative embolization of hypervascular tumors: Reduces blood supply to tumors before surgery.

• Partial splenic artery embolization/embolization in ruptured liver tumors: Manages bleeding from the spleen or liver tumors.

• Hepatic Venous Pressure Gradient (HVPG) for cirrhotic patients: Measures pressure in the liver veins to assess the severity of cirrhosis.

• Trans Jugular Liver Biopsy (TJLB): A method to obtain liver tissue samples for diagnosis through the veins.

Interventional Oncology Procedures

• Liver cancer treatment – Radiofrequency/Microwave ablation, TACE, PEI: Minimally invasive treatments that destroy cancer cells using heat, chemicals, or particles.

• Ablation of other tumors: Uses heat or chemicals to destroy tumors in various organs.

• Palliative interventions – biliary stenting in advanced malignant obstructive jaundice, nerve blocks, ablation of metastases: Procedures to relieve symptoms and improve quality of life in advanced cancer cases.

• CT/Ultrasound guided FNAC and Biopsy: Needle procedures to obtain tissue samples for diagnosis.

Nephrological - Urological Interventional Procedures

• Percutaneous nephrostomy/antegrade ureteric stenting: Procedures to relieve urinary obstructions by placing tubes or stents.

• Embolization of post-PCNL/post-renal biopsy hematuria: Stops bleeding in the kidneys after certain procedures.

• Embolization of bleeding renal tumors like angiomyolipoma: Controls bleeding from kidney tumors.

• Pre-operative embolization of renal cell carcinoma: Reduces blood flow to kidney tumors before surgery.

• Embolization of varicocele causing infertility: Treats enlarged veins in the scrotum that can cause infertility.

• AV fistuloplasty/thrombolysis: Treats blood clots and other issues in dialysis access points.

• Renal biopsy – percutaneous/transjugular: Obtains kidney tissue samples for diagnosis.

Gynecological Interventional Procedures

• Uterine fibroid embolization: Shrinks fibroids by cutting off their blood supply.

• Embolization in cases of postpartum hemorrhage: Controls severe bleeding after childbirth.

• Fallopian tube recanalization in tubal blocks causing infertility: Opens blocked fallopian tubes.

• Embolization in cases of pelvic congestion syndrome: Treats chronic pelvic pain caused by varicose veins in the pelvis.
