Professor S. Sushkov has pioneered laparoscopy in the region since 1995. The full range of abdominal surgery, minimally invasive techniques, cosmetic results.
MARIA Medical Center is equipped with a professional Karl Storz laparoscopic tower (Germany) — the benchmark of endoscopic surgery worldwide.
The highest image resolution — the surgeon sees the finest details of tissues, vessels and lymph nodes.
Inspection of the abdominal organs and biopsy from any site during a single procedure.
The biopsy specimen is sent for histological and immunohistochemical examination — 100% morphological verification.
Precise removal of lymph nodes for cancer staging.
The gold standard for diagnosing unexplained abdominal conditions — when ultrasound, CT and MRI give no answer.
Diagnostic laparoscopy on Karl Storz equipment is a complete inspection of the abdominal organs, with the option to proceed immediately to treatment.
Inspection of all abdominal and pelvic organs in Full HD
Biopsy of any mass, lymph node or peritoneum — under direct vision
Lymph node dissection for cancer staging
Material for histology + immunohistochemistry → accurate morphological verification
If indicated — immediate transition to surgical treatment
In laparoscopic biopsy the surgeon sees the lesion directly, chooses the best site for sampling and controls bleeding. Diagnostic accuracy is higher than with “blind” CT-guided needle biopsies.
All procedures are performed on the Karl Storz tower. Minimal incisions, professorial precision, fast recovery.
Gallbladder removal for gallstone disease and chronic or acute cholecystitis. The gold standard of gallstone treatment.
⏱ Discharge in 1–2 daysLaparoscopic repair of hiatal hernias. Fundoplication for GERD. Mesh implant when indicated.
⏱ Recovery 2–3 weeksRemoval of stomach tumors — GIST, polyps, early cancer. Organ-preserving procedures whenever possible.
🔬 Intraoperative histologyLaparoscopic removal of tumors of the small and large bowel, polyps and localized malignant lesions.
🔬 Frozen-section histologyRegional lymph node dissection in cancer surgery. Material for immunohistochemistry — accurate TNM staging.
🧬 Immunohistochemical verificationLaparoscopic excision or marsupialization of kidney cysts. Intraoperative biopsy if atypia is suspected.
⏱ Discharge in 1–2 daysTumors and cysts of the liver, pancreas, adrenal glands, mesentery and retroperitoneum — laparoscopically when technically feasible.
🔬 Biopsy + histologyLaparoscopic removal of the appendix for appendicitis — elective and emergency. Minimal scarring.
⏱ Discharge in 1–2 daysModern techniques with synthetic mesh implants and a minimal risk of recurrence.
Repair of hernias in postoperative scars — open or laparoscopic. Mesh implants. The technique (IPOM, sublay, onlay) is chosen individually depending on the size and location of the defect.
🔩 Mesh implant · low recurrence riskLaparoscopic (TEP/TAPP) and open hernia repair. Tension-free Lichtenstein repair. Quick return to physical activity.
⏱ Recovery 1–2 weeksLaparoscopic or open repair depending on the size of the defect. Cosmetic result. Simultaneous abdominoplasty if needed.
🎯 Cosmetic suture| Hernia repair method | Recurrence risk | Recovery | Pain |
|---|---|---|---|
| Laparoscopy + mesh | 1–3% | 7–14 days | Minimal |
| Open + mesh (Lichtenstein) | 1–5% | 2–3 weeks | Moderate |
| Open without mesh (tension repair) | 10–30% | 3–4 weeks | Significant |
High-precision procedures with cosmetic absorbable sutures — the scar is barely visible.
Removal of varicose veins through tiny punctures. Cosmetic result, fast recovery. Local or general anesthesia.
Surgical treatment of hemorrhoids of all stages. Classic hemorrhoidectomy and minimally invasive techniques. Precise suturing.
Excision of papillomas, warts, condylomas, pigmented nevi and keratomas. Histological examination of all removed tissue.
Removal of atheromas, lipomas, fibromas, ganglion cysts and dermoid cysts. Any size and location.
Correction of coarse, hypertrophic and keloid scars. Excision with layered cosmetic closure.
All removed tissue is sent for histological examination. Ruling out malignancy is mandatory.
Examination, review of imaging (CT/MRI/ultrasound) and test results. The professor determines the best method and extent of surgery, explains the details and answers all questions.
Blood tests (CBC, biochemistry, coagulation), ECG, ultrasound, CT if needed. Anesthesiologist consultation. 1–3 days.
Performed personally by Professor Sushkov. Duration depends on the extent of the procedure. Intraoperative biopsy and frozen-section histology if needed.
Laparoscopic operations — discharge on day 1–2. Open operations — 3–5 days. Pain relief, dressings, follow-up checks.
Laparoscopy — back to work in 7–14 days. Minor surgery — in 2–5 days. The professor is available for questions by phone and Telegram.
Expert surgery on Karl Storz equipment. 40 years of experience. Consultation by appointment.
