Colon cancer surgery is needed when cancer is detected in the colon and hasn’t spread beyond a manageable stage. It removes the cancerous section of the colon to eliminate the disease and prevent progression. Your doctor will recommend it based on cancer stage, size, and location.
Imaging (e.g., CT scans) and colonoscopy map the cancer for surgical planning.
General anesthesia keeps you asleep and pain-free during surgery.
Surgeons remove the affected colon section via open or laparoscopic methods.
The colon is reconnected or a stoma created, followed by incision closure.
The procedure takes 2-4 hours, depending on complexity. Your surgeon will detail the method during consultation.
Colon cancer surgery is safe with skilled teams, but risks include:
Infection at the surgical site
Bleeding or blood clots
Leakage at the colon reconnection
Bowel obstruction or changes
Major complications occur in less than 5% of cases. SB Medical Travels works with top hospitals to minimize risks and optimize outcomes.
Preparation is key for a successful surgery and recovery:
Fast for 8-12 hours prior to general anesthesia
Follow a bowel prep regimen to clear the colon
Pack comfortable clothing and prepare for possible stoma care
Arrange a companion for support after discharge
SB Medical Travels provides a detailed pre-surgery checklist and personalized support throughout the process.
4-7 days, depending on the surgery type and healing.
Rest and limited activity; manage diet and possible stoma.
Gradual return to light activities as bowels normalize.
Most resume normal life, adjusting to bowel changes if any.
Our team coordinates your recovery, including dietary guidance and follow-ups for optimal healing.
Pain management is a priority during and after colon cancer surgery:
General anesthesia ensures no pain during the procedure.
Moderate abdominal pain; managed with pain relief.
Pain subsides within weeks; mild discomfort may linger.
Minimal pain after healing; focus shifts to bowel function.
Our partner hospitals ensure effective pain management, and we’ll support your recovery process.
