How do I know if I should get a total colectomy?

 

Colectomy is a surgical procedure to remove all or part of your colon. Your colon, also called your large intestine, is a long tubelike organ at the end of your digestive tract. A total colectomy may be necessary to treat or prevent diseases and conditions that affect your colon.
There are various types of colectomy operations:
Total colectomy involves removing the entire colon.
Partial colectomy involves removing part of the colon and may also be called subtotal colectomy.
Hemicolectomy involves removing the right or left portion of the colon.
Proctocolectomy involves removing both the colon and rectum.
Colon resection or a colectomy can be performed in two ways: conventional open surgery or laparoscopic surgery. The type of operation you undergo depends on your situation and your surgeon’s expertise.

How successful is haemorrhoid surgery?

Haemorrhoids are swollen veins in the anal canal. The treatment depends on the stage in which the disease is. If it is still in its early stages you can simply treat it with a high fibre diet and plenty of oral fluids. If it moves into later stages, surgery can be made via laser procedures, open surgery or even a stapler procedure. These surgeries, in general, are very successful. However, haemorrhoids have a tendency of reappearing. It is much better to focus on fixing haemorrhoids through natural methods. If you still wish to go for surgery then you should consult with specialists such as Dr Mehli Nazir to give yourself the best   haemorrhoids treatment   possible. DR.

  What Is An Anal Fistula? This a channel extending from the anal canal (usually) to the skin in the area surrounding the anal verge.  It is frequently a result of the formation of an anal gland infection which may manifest as an abscess. What Is The  Treatment For Anal Fistula ? Surgery is almost always needed as only very few fistulas heal by themselves.  The procedure of choice depends on: Type of Fistula Presence/ absence of infection/large abscess. In majority of cases a fistulotomy procedure alone suffice.  In this the tract is layed open along its entire length, and the wound so created is allowed to heal by scar tissue formation.  Occasionally in the case of a complex fistula a two stage procedure is warranted to achieve full healing without complications. Recovery From Surgery Can be done as a day procedure operation. Occasionally depending on the type of fistula and therefore selection of surgery, a few days...
