Common Liver and Biliary Conditions Treated at Artemis Hospitals
Liver and biliary diseases can affect digestion, metabolism, and overall health. At Artemis Hospitals, we specialise in diagnosing and treating a wide range of liver and bile duct disorders. Here are some of the most common conditions we manage:
Hepatitis (A, B, C, D, E)
Hepatitis is an infection that causes liver inflammation, often due to viruses, alcohol use, or autoimmune conditions. Symptoms may include:
Fatigue, nausea, and loss of appetite
Jaundice (yellowing of the skin and eyes)
Dark urine and pale stool
Cirrhosis
Cirrhosis is the scarring of the liver due to long-term liver disease. As scar tissue replaces healthy liver cells, liver function declines, leading to:
Swelling in the abdomen and legs
Easy bruising and bleeding
Confusion or memory problems
Gallstones
Gallstones are solid deposits that form in the gallbladder, sometimes blocking bile flow. This can result in:
Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD and AFLD)
Fatty liver occurs when excess fat builds up in liver cells, commonly due to obesity, diabetes, or excessive alcohol consumption. It may cause:
Liver Cancer
Liver cancer, including hepatocellular carcinoma and bile duct cancer, can develop due to chronic liver disease or infections like hepatitis B and C. Symptoms include:
Our specialists at Artemis Hospitals provide early detection, advanced treatments, and personalised care for all liver and biliary conditions.
Advanced Liver and Biliary Treatments at Artemis Hospitals
At Artemis Hospitals, we offer a comprehensive range of advanced treatments for liver and biliary diseases, ensuring effective management with cutting-edge technology and minimally invasive techniques. Our approach focuses on precise diagnosis, personalised treatment plans, and faster recovery for our patients. From medical management and minimally invasive procedures to complex surgeries and liver transplants, our specialists provide expert care at every stage of treatment.
Medical Management for Liver and Biliary Diseases

Medications for liver disease to manage cirrhosis, fatty liver, and autoimmune disorders.
Nutritional counselling to support liver function and prevent disease progression.
Minimally Invasive Procedures
For conditions like gallstones, bile duct blockages, or liver cysts, we use minimally invasive procedures to ensure quicker recovery and reduced complications:
Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy – Keyhole surgery to remove the gallbladder when gallstones cause severe pain or infection.
Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) – A specialised procedure to remove bile duct stones or treat bile duct narrowing.
Liver Biopsy – A minimally invasive method to diagnose liver diseases and determine treatment strategies.
Advanced Liver and Biliary Surgeries
In cases where surgery is required, Artemis Hospitals offers highly specialised procedures, including:
Liver Resection (Hepatectomy) – Surgical removal of a portion of the liver to treat liver cancer or benign liver tumours.
Biliary Surgery – Procedures to correct bile duct strictures, remove tumours, or reconstruct bile ducts.
Robotic and Laparoscopic Liver Surgery – Minimally invasive options for complex liver conditions, ensuring less pain and faster recovery.
Liver Transplantation
For patients with end-stage liver disease or liver failure, we provide comprehensive liver transplant services, including:
Living Donor Liver Transplant (LDLT) – A portion of a healthy liver from a donor is transplanted to replace a damaged liver.
Deceased Donor Liver Transplant (DDLT) – A full liver transplant from a brain-dead donor.
Post-Transplant Care – Long-term management to ensure transplant success and patient well-being.
Our multidisciplinary team at Artemis Hospitals ensures that every patient receives the most effective treatment tailored to their condition, promoting a better quality of life and long-term liver health.
