About Dr. Pinak Dasgupta

Dr. Pinak Dasgupta is a consultant surgical gastroenterologist at Dr. Humayun Speciality Hospital, T. Nagar. He holds an MS in General Surgery, a DNB in Surgical Gastroenterology and a Fellowship of the Indian Association of Gastrointestinal Endo-Surgeons.

His work covers surgery of the digestive organs, most of it done laparoscopically through incisions of a centimetre or less. The difference that makes to recovery is substantial. What has not changed is that the decision to operate deserves as much care as the operation itself, and a scan showing gallstones is not on its own a reason for surgery.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do gallstones always need surgery?

No. Stones found by chance and causing no symptoms are often left alone. Surgery is advised once they cause pain, inflammation or block the bile duct, because those tend to recur.

How long is recovery after keyhole gallbladder surgery?

Most people go home within a day and return to desk work in about a week. Heavy lifting waits three to four weeks.

Will my surgery definitely be keyhole?

That is the intention. Occasionally an operation is converted to open for safety, usually because of inflammation or scarring. That is a judgement made during surgery, and it is discussed with you beforehand.
