Dr Yusuf Moollan
BSC (MED) MBBS; FRACS (General Surgery) - Hernia and General Surgeon & Endoscopist
Dr Yusuf Moollan is a specialist Hernia and General surgeon. He specialises
in minimally invasive, laparoscopic surgery, complex hernia surgery,
endoscopies (gastroscopies and colonoscopies), and varicose vein
treatments.
Dr Moollan is a Fellow of the Royal Australasian College of Surgeons with
extensive sub specialty training in the field of complex groin and
abdominal wall hernia repairs and minimally invasive varicose vein
treatments.
Dr Moollan specializes in multiple techniques in the repair of complex
abdominal wall hernia including chemical relaxation with pre-operative
botulinum A toxin (Botox) injections and the Progressive Preoperative
Pneumoperitoenum (PPP) method. He excels in all types of hernia repairs;
from the most common inguinal hernias to the most complex ventral and
incisional hernias with loss of domain.
Dr Moollan's delivery of pre-operative injections of Botox into the lateral
abdominal wall muscles under ultrasound guidance and the use of PPP, is
designed to expand the intra-abdominal cavity, further enabling tension
free fascial closure thus reducing recurrences. Dr Moollan also specialises
in minimally invasive external oblique release techniques, thus significantly
decreasing the risk of seroma formation.
