Colorectal Surgery
| The expert surgeons at Presbyterian are using minimally invasive techniques that are revolutionizing surgical treatments. Many are commonly used today, and our skilled surgeons are constantly developing new techniques that will give you the best possible outcome and help you return to daily activities more quickly. |
The procedures that are practiced regularly at Presbyterian include:
Anyone with a condition that requires removal of a large part of the intestine, including diverticulitis,Crohns disease, some colorectal cancers, and rectal prolapse may be a candidate for laparoscopic intestinal surgery.
A colostomy or ilestomy is performed when the large intestine, rectum, or anus is unable to function normally or needs rest from normal functions.
PPH (procedure for prolapse and hemorrhoids) has recently been developed as a surgical treatment for the removal of hemorrhoids.
Rectopexy is a surgery used to treat Rectal Prolapse.
