Surgical Approach

Dr. Nahm is experienced in robotic, laparoscopic, and open surgery. Your approach is tailored to your specific condition and needs.

01

Minimally Invasive

Robotic Surgery

Dr. Nahm is trained in the latest robotic surgical platforms, offering enhanced precision, tremor filtration, 3D high-definition visualisation, and a greater range of motion than traditional laparoscopic instruments. Robotic surgery is particularly advantageous for complex HPB procedures where precision is paramount.

Procedures

  • Cholecystectomy (gallbladder removal)
  • Hernia repair (inguinal, incisional, umbilical)
  • Liver and pancreatic surgery
  • Adrenalectomy
  • Splenectomy

Key Benefits

  • Superior 3D visualisation
  • Enhanced surgical precision
  • Reduced blood loss
  • Faster recovery times
  • Shorter hospital stay

02

Minimally Invasive

Laparoscopic Surgery

Laparoscopic (keyhole) surgery uses small incisions and a camera to perform complex operations with minimal disruption to surrounding tissues. This minimally invasive approach results in less pain, reduced scarring, and faster return to normal activities for most patients.

Procedures

  • Gallbladder surgery (cholecystectomy)
  • Hernia repair
  • Bowel surgery
  • Splenectomy
  • Anti-reflux surgery

Key Benefits

  • Small incisions, less scarring
  • Reduced postoperative pain
  • Lower infection risk
  • Day surgery possible for many procedures
  • Rapid return to activities

03

Complex Cases

Open Surgery

For complex hepatobiliary and pancreatic conditions requiring direct access, open surgery delivers the highest level of control and versatility. Dr. Nahm has extensive experience performing complex open procedures including major liver resections and Whipple's operations at high-volume tertiary centres.

Procedures

  • Whipple's procedure (pancreaticoduodenectomy)
  • Complex liver resection / hepatectomy
  • Bile duct reconstruction
  • Extended pancreatic surgery
  • Re-operative HPB surgery

Key Benefits

  • Direct surgical access
  • Optimal for complex anatomy
  • Suitable for all case complexity
  • Maximum intraoperative flexibility
  • Gold standard for major HPB surgery

The most appropriate surgical approach will be discussed with you at your consultation.
