Hemicolectomy
Know Your Surgery
A hemicolectomy is a surgical procedure in which a portion of the colon (large intestine) is removed. The procedure is typically performed to treat conditions that affect the colon, such as colorectal cancer, Crohn’s disease, diverticulitis, or inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). The specific part of the colon removed depends on the location of the disease or problem.
