Colorectal Surgeries

Colon Surgery

Colon surgery or also known as colorectal surgery encompasses a variety of procedures aimed at treating conditions affecting the colon and rectum. These may include colon cancer, inflammatory bowel disease, diverticulitis, and benign colorectal polyps.

Common types of colon surgery include colon resection, where a portion of the colon is removed, and polypectomy, which involves the removal of precancerous polyps. In more advanced cases, procedures like colectomy or proctectomy may be necessary to remove larger sections of the colon or rectum.

Colon surgery can be performed using different approaches, including traditional open surgery, laparoscopic surgery, and robotic-assisted surgery. The choice of technique depends on factors such as the patient's condition, the extent of surgery required, and the surgeon's expertise.

With advancements in surgical techniques and technology, colon surgery has become safer and more effective, with shorter hospital stays and faster recovery times. Patients undergoing colon surgery can expect comprehensive care and support from a multidisciplinary team of healthcare professionals, ensuring the best possible outcomes and improved quality of life.
