Episode 64: Internal Medicine: Interventional Endoscopy in Patients with Altered Anatomy with Dr. Ali Zakaria
Description
Interventional endoscopy is a minimally invasive procedure that uses a long, thin tube with a camera and light at the end to diagnose and treat diseases of the digestive tract. Interventional endoscopy can be used to treat a variety of conditions, including bleeding ulcers, cancer, and blockages.
In patients with altered anatomy, such as those who have had surgery or have certain medical conditions, interventional endoscopy can be more challenging. However, Dr. Ali Zakaria, a board-certified Gastroenterology and Hepatology physician trained in Advanced Interventional Endoscopy at Monument Health in Rapid City, is an expert in performing interventional endoscopies on these patients.
In this podcast, Dr. Zakaria discusses the challenges of performing interventional endoscopy in patients with altered anatomy, and how he overcomes these challenges to provide the best possible care for his patients. He also discusses the latest advances in interventional endoscopy, and how these advances are benefiting patients with altered anatomy.
