Performed to remove a diseased or damaged segment of the colon affected by colorectal cancer, diverticulitis with complications like abscess or perforation, inflammatory bowel disease, or a section of colon that has lost its blood supply. The goal is to remove the affected part while preserving as much healthy, functioning colon as possible.

Signs You May Need Colon Resection

Persistent abdominal pain, changes in bowel habits, rectal bleeding, unexplained weight loss, or symptoms of bowel obstruction like severe cramping and inability to pass stool are typical indications. Recurrent episodes of diverticulitis with fever and localized abdominal pain are a particularly common trigger for elective colon resection.

Types of Colon Resection

Laparoscopic colon resection uses small incisions and is preferred when feasible for a faster recovery, while open resection through a larger incision is used for more complex, extensive, or emergency cases. Depending on the disease and location, the bowel ends may be reconnected immediately or a temporary stoma created to allow healing before reconnection.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will I need a stoma bag after colon resection?

Not always; many resections allow immediate reconnection, but a temporary stoma may be needed in more complicated or emergency situations, which your surgeon will discuss based on your specific case.

How long is the hospital stay?

Typically 5-7 days, shorter with laparoscopic techniques and enhanced recovery protocols.

What is the recovery time at home?

Most patients need 4-8 weeks to fully recover and return to normal activities.

Will diverticulitis come back after resection?

Removing the affected segment significantly reduces the chance of recurrence in that area, though diverticula can still be present elsewhere in the remaining colon.

What are the main risks?

Risks include infection, anastomotic leak, and bowel obstruction from scar tissue, so close post-operative monitoring is important.
