We Specialize In Minimally Invasive Surgery For The Colon & Rectum

In minimally invasive or “Laparoscopic” colon surgery the surgeon makes a series of small incisions in the abdomen. A small video camera, or “scope,” is placed in one of the incisions, providing the surgeon with a magnified view of the internal organs on a television monitor. Surgical instruments are placed in the other incisions, allowing the surgeon to work inside the abdomen and remove portions of the diseased colon. This surgical technique can be used to treat colon cancer and polyps and other diseases of the colon, such as Crohn’s disease, ulcerative colitis, and diverticulitis.

This is the least invasive form of surgery available and has proven benefits when compared to traditional surgery. Patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery experience less pain and their recovery is quicker. They return to work earlier and are very satisfied with their recovery. The average hospital stay for minimally invasive colon surgery is three four days, compared to a seven day hospital stay for traditional surgery. This method has also proven the ability to exceed the traditional standards of lymph node removal, leaving patients with virtually no trace of cancer or room for recurrence.

If you’re considering minimally invasive colon surgery for colon disease, you should consult a surgeon experienced in minimally invasive colon surgery techniques. Our surgeons perform all types of advanced and minimally invasive laparoscopic operations.
