Laparoscopic Colon Resection

Using advanced laparoscopic technique, surgeons treat benign diseases of the colon and other disorders by removing the diseased segment of the bowel and stitching the two ends together. A tiny camera and various instruments allow surgeons to look inside the abdominal cavity and perform fine dissection, cutting, suturing, and stapling. Patients typically experience less post-operative pain and more rapid recovery compared to traditional open surgery.
