How is colectomy performed?
There are several types of colectomy but only a doctor decides which one a patient requires. Specialists perform laparoscopic (minimally invasive) and open colectomies.
The laparoscopic colectomy cost is less traumatic than open one because a doctor makes only three small incisions (up to 1 cm) on the abdomen during the operation. A doctor delivers a video tube through one of the incisions and a tool in another one. Then a doctor removes the colon out of the patient’s body controlling the process on a screen. When a colon is repaired, it is inserted back through a small incision on the patient’s abdomen.
Laparoscopic colectomy is performed for early-stage colon cancer.
Open colectomy requires longer incision, longer hospitalization, and more medicines for postoperative period than after laparoscopy.
Both procedures are carried out under general anesthesia. Colectomy takes from 4 to 6 hours.
What are the advantages of laparoscopic colectomy?
- minimal blood loss and less traumas
- shorter hospital stay
- less pain during postoperative period
- low risk of infections
- less scarring than after open surgery.
