• Liver Failure: Liver failure is when the liver shuts down and can no longer perform its essential functions. This can happen gradually or rapidly. Acute liver failures happen suddenly, usually due to factors that overwhelm the liver’s capacity. Chronic liver failure is the end stage of chronic liver disease. It happens when something has been damaging your liver for a long time, and finally, the damage becomes irreversible. We have specialized clinics dedicated to liver failure conditions. Paired with innovative treatment strategies and state-of-the-art diagnostics, we offer the finest hepatology care in Bangalore.
• Liver Cirrhosis: Liver cirrhosis happens when the tissues in your liver are replaced by scar tissue. It can happen due to different liver diseases and conditions like hepatitis or chronic alcoholism. Cirrhosis gets worse as more scar tissue is formed, and in advanced form, it can be life-threatening. We combat liver cirrhosis with the most advanced diagnostics and innovative treatment plans that help you retain your normal life.
• Gallbladder Stone: Commonly known as gallstones, these are hardened deposits of digestive fluid that form in the gallbladder. Usually, people with gallstones require surgery to remove their gallbladder. At Gleneagles Hospitals, we have experienced doctors who help manage gallstones.
• Alcoholic Liver Disease: It is an umbrella term for liver damage due to excessive alcohol consumption. Typically, it includes conditions like fatty liver, hepatitis, and cirrhosis. The main treatment for this is to stop drinking alcohol and make serious lifestyle changes. However, in cases of complete liver damage, a transplant might be recommended.
• Autoimmune Liver Disease: Autoimmune hepatitis is when the body's infection-fighting system attacks the liver cells. Usually, medications are effective in managing this disease. In severe cases, a transplant is recommended.
• Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease: It is a condition where there is a buildup of fat in the liver. It usually happens due to obesity and unhealthy eating habits. There are no specific treatments for this, but one can manage the risk factors with active lifestyle changes.
• Wilson Disease: Wilson disease is a rare genetic condition where copper builds up in the body. The condition adversely affects the liver. There are no cures for this but lifelong treatment helps with the copper level in the body.
• Primary Biliary Cholangitis: Primary biliary cholangitis is a chronic disease where the small bile ducts in the liver become injured and inflamed and are eventually destroyed. Medications and lifestyle changes help manage the symptoms of this condition.
• Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis: In this condition, the bile ducts inside and outside the liver get inflamed and scarred, leading to blockage. Due to this bile builds up in the liver, leading to liver damage. Medication and bile duct surgery are two of the most effective ways to deal with the condition. A liver transplant is an option in severe cases.
