Rectal surgery is performed to address cancer and precancerous conditions within the colon and rectum as well as to address the symptoms of inflammatory bowel disease, diverticulitis and anorectal disorders such as hemorrhoids and fistulas. It may also be employed to correct problems with bowel functioning/motility such as constipation and fecal incontinence. Our surgeons who specialize in colon and rectal surgery have advanced training in the treatment of diseases affecting the lower digestive tract, including knowledge of minimally invasive procedures, transanal endoscopic microsurgery and robotic-assisted surgery. Common colorectal surgeries include hemorrhoidectomy, polypectomy, colectomy, proctocolectomy, colostomy, ileal pouch anal anastomosis (J-pouch surgery), bowel resection and internal sphincterotomy procedures.
