Colectomy Surgery Overview:
Colectomy is a surgical procedure to remove part or all of the colon due to conditions like colorectal cancer, diverticulitis, or inflammatory bowel disease. The surgeon removes the affected section and may reconnect the remaining parts or create a stoma, depending on the patient’s condition.

Duration: Typically lasts 2 to 4 hours depending on complexity.
Recovery: Patients may experience pain, swelling, and bruising during colectomy surgery recovery. Most go home after a few days and should avoid strenuous activities for weeks.
Post-Procedure Care: Keep the incision clean, take prescribed medication, follow dietary restrictions, and attend follow-up appointments for monitoring.
