Colorectal Surgery (Bowel Resection)

What is Bowel Resection?

Bowel resection is a surgical procedure performed to remove a diseased or damaged portion of the intestine (small or large bowel). The remaining healthy ends are carefully reconnected to restore normal bowel function. This surgery helps relieve symptoms, prevent complications, and improve quality of life.

Conditions Treated with Bowel Resection

Bowel resection may be necessary for a variety of digestive and gastrointestinal conditions, including:

  • Colorectal Cancer – to remove cancerous growths from the colon or rectum.
  • Crohn’s Disease – for severe inflammation or strictures that don’t respond to medication.
  • Ulcerative Colitis – in cases where symptoms are not manageable with medical therapy.
  • Diverticulitis – when repeated inflammation or infection leads to complications like abscess or perforation.
  • Bowel Obstruction – caused by scar tissue, tumors, or twisting of the intestine.
  • Ischemic Bowel Disease – when blood flow to part of the intestine is blocked.
  • Trauma or Injury – requiring surgical repair or removal of damaged bowel segments.
  • Non-cancerous Polyps – large or recurrent polyps that are not removable via endoscopy.
