How is colon surgery performed?

Doctor's Answer

A colon surgery can be done either through an open incision or in trained hands, via the laparoscopic approach. Depending on the indication of the surgery, the 'radicality' of the procedure will vary. It is best to consult a specialist to discuss the details of the surgery.
