Digestive pathologies

The digestive system can be affected by many diseases.

Other, less severe but very common diseases are difficult to live with on a daily basis: gastro-oesophageal reflux, functional intestinal disorders (functional colopathies), or proctological affections.

Gastroenterology is the medical discipline in charge of disorders of the digestive tract. The pathologies of the digestive tract include all the affections of the digestive system or its appendices such as the esophagus, the stomach, the small intestine, the colon, the rectum and the anal canal, the liver and the pancreas. They are associated with several disorders including:

  • Digestive and liver cancers
  • Pathologies related to alcohol or hepatitis B and C viruses,
  • Chronic inflammatory bowel diseases, including Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis,
  • Digestive emergencies including heart attacks.
  • Irritable bowel syndrome
  • Celiac disease
  • Gastroenteritis
  • Gallstones
  • Intestinal polyps
  • Sigmoidal diverticulitis
  • Appendicitis
  • Salmonellosis

Risk factors influence these diseases such as

  • Age
  • Obesity
  • Infectious agents
  • Lifestyles conducive to precariousness including alcohol consumption, drug addiction, diet, overweight and stress
1
people worldwide suffer from digestive diseases, all sexes and all ages combined. This represents more than 26% of the total number of cancers in the world.

TREATMENTS

SurgyOne manages all digestive pathologies that require surgical treatment. In the first instance, the investigation often starts with an endoscopy performed as part of a screening or follow-up of the client. To minimize the risk of digestive tract pathologies, a healthy lifestyle is recommended, including an appropriate rhythm of life, a balanced diet and especially the cessation of smoking and alcohol.

In the case of cancerous pathologies, management is multidisciplinary (surgeons, oncologists, anatomopathologists, anesthesiologists). The proposed therapeutic choices are discussed in multidisciplinary meetings.
