The colectomy (colon resection) at Teknon is performed in the General and Abdominal Surgery Department. Doctors carry out laparoscopic removal of various parts of the colon (through several incisions in the abdomen up to 2 cm in size) and open operations through 1 incision 15-20 cm in size.
The duration of the surgery depends on the access type and removed tissue volume. The surgical intervention takes up to 5 hours. A patient stays under general anesthesia.
When the colon resection procedure is over, a patient is placed in the Intensive Care Unit. If there are no complications, a patient is moved to the regular ward. The hospitalization after surgery is 7-10 days.
The cost of colon resection surgery varies depending on the disease stage. The colon cancer surgery cost may be higher due to the complexity of surgical intervention.
