In a laparoscopic colectomy procedure, all or part of the colon is removed (excised) in an effort to eliminate a cancerous or pre-cancerous condition or lessen the symptoms of gastrointestinal disease. This operation is performed through keyhole-sized incisions rather than a single, larger incision that would require more time to heal and potentially cause greater scarring. Conditions for which a laparoscopic colectomy may be necessary include uncontrolled gastrointestinal bleeding, Crohn’s disease, colon cancer, diverticulitis, a bowel obstruction, ulcerative colitis, and/or the occurrence of precancerous polyps in a patient who is at high risk of developing colon cancer.
