	~~[[File:~~Digestive system ~~diagram en.svg\|thumb\|right\|300px\|Diagram~~ of the ~~human~~ digestive system]]		'''Digestive system surgery''' refers to a range of surgical procedures performed on the [[digestive system]], which includes the [[esophagus]], [[stomach]], [[small intestine]], [[large intestine]], [[rectum]], [[liver]], [[gallbladder]], and [[pancreas]]. These surgeries are often necessary to treat conditions such as [[gastroesophageal reflux disease]] (GERD), [[gallstones]], [[appendicitis]], [[hernia]], and various forms of [[cancer]].

			[[Esophageal surgery]] is performed to treat conditions such as [[achalasia]], [[esophageal cancer]], and severe [[GERD]]. Procedures include [[esophagectomy]], [[fundoplication]], and [[esophageal dilation]].

	=== ~~Types of Digestive System~~ Surgery ===		===Stomach Surgery===
			[[Stomach surgery]] may be necessary for conditions like [[stomach cancer]], [[peptic ulcers]], and [[obesity]]. Common procedures include [[gastrectomy]], [[gastric bypass surgery]], and [[gastric banding]].

			[[Pancreatic surgery]] is often required for [[pancreatic cancer]], [[pancreatitis]], and [[cysts]]. Common procedures include [[pancreatectomy]] and [[Whipple procedure]].

	==~~= Risks and Complications =~~==		==Indications for Surgery==
			Surgical intervention in the digestive system is indicated when non-surgical treatments have failed or when immediate intervention is necessary to prevent complications. Indications include:
			* [[Obstruction]]
			* [[Perforation]]
			* [[Bleeding]]
			* [[Cancer]]
			* [[Infection]]
