A liver resection takes away part of the liver, most commonly to treat cancer that has spread from the bowel, and the liver that remains regrows over the following months.

Oxford University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust says the commonest reason is bowel cancer that has spread to the liver, and it is also used for primary liver and bile duct cancers and occasionally for benign conditions.

The trust says that up to two-thirds of the liver can be taken out and the rest regrows to near-normal size in about three months, and portal vein embolisation may be carried out first if too little liver would remain.

Oxford reports a mortality of 1 to 2% in specialist centres, and about 1 in 6 people need a blood transfusion.

The majority of people leave hospital three to seven days after surgery and resume normal activities after two to three months.

Flying home: UK Civil Aviation Authority medical guidance recommends no flights for 10 days following open abdominal surgery, which usually means about a fortnight in Gurgaon.

A Gurgaon quote for liver resection is normally made up of these items:

• Pre-operative tests: blood work, imaging and an anaesthetic assessment.
• Theatre and anaesthesia charges: mostly set by time in the operating room.
• Consultant fees: which differ from one hospital to the next.
• Type of operation: open, keyhole or robotic where there is a choice.
• Extent: how much liver is taken out.
• Approach: open, keyhole or robotic.
• Intensive care: after surgery.
• Stay: commonly three to seven days.

Cancer surgery costs vary with the stage, how much is taken out and any further therapy, so complex cases in Gurgaon can cost more than the range above.

Digestive and abdominal operations in Gurgaon are carried out by surgical teams in multi-speciality hospitals with critical care and endoscopy on site.

NABH, the hospital accreditation board of the Quality Council of India whose standards carry ISQua accreditation, sets the national benchmark for hospitals, and its online directory shows whether a Gurgaon hospital's accreditation is still current.

Gurgaon is part of Delhi NCR, where India's first hospital to gain Joint Commission International (JCI) accreditation did so in 2005, and JCI publishes a searchable list of the organisations it currently accredits.

Haryana adopted the national Clinical Establishments (Registration and Regulation) Act, 2010 in 2018, starting with larger private hospitals, so you can ask a Gurgaon hospital for its registration under the Act.
