Colectomy Information

There are several different options when your physician recommends a colectomy, including:

• Right Colectomy – Surgery on the right colon
• Left Colectomy – Surgery on the left colon
• Sigmoid Colectomy – Surgery on the lower left part of your colon before your rectum
• Total Colectomy – The entire colon is removed

Though colorectal procedures are usually performed through a large incision, procedures can also be done using minimally invasive surgery. This means that the surgeon operates through small abdominal incisions.
