ABOUT THE PROCEDURE

What is Colorectal Cancer Surgery?

Colorectal Cancer Surgery is a specialized procedure performed to remove cancerous tumors from the colon or rectum along with surrounding lymph nodes while preserving healthy bowel whenever possible. Surgery is the primary treatment for most localized colorectal cancers and aims to completely remove the disease while restoring normal bowel continuity. Depending on the location and stage of the cancer, minimally invasive laparoscopic or robotic-assisted techniques may be used to reduce surgical trauma, shorten hospital stay, and improve recovery. Dr. Prashanth Koyyoda provides advanced colorectal cancer surgery with a personalized, multidisciplinary approach to achieve the best oncological outcomes.

HOW IS THE PROCEDURE PERFORMED?

How is Colorectal Cancer Surgery Performed?

Esophageal cancer surgery removes the affected esophagus, nearby lymph nodes, and reconstructs digestion by connecting the stomach to remaining esophagus.

Preoperative Assessment

Before surgery, Dr. Prashanth Koyyoda performs a detailed evaluation including colonoscopy with biopsy, CT scan, MRI for rectal cancer when required, blood investigations, tumor marker evaluation (CEA), cardiac assessment, pulmonary evaluation, and anesthetic fitness. This comprehensive assessment helps determine the stage of the cancer and the most appropriate surgical approach.

General Anesthesia

The surgery is performed under general anesthesia to ensure complete comfort throughout the procedure. The anesthesia team continuously monitors the patient's vital signs and overall condition during the operation.

Surgical Procedure

Depending on the location of the tumor, the affected portion of the colon or rectum is carefully removed along with nearby lymph nodes following standard oncological principles. Whenever suitable, minimally invasive laparoscopic techniques are used to minimize pain, reduce blood loss, and support faster recovery while ensuring complete cancer removal.

Reconstruction

After removing the diseased bowel segment, the healthy ends of the intestine are reconnected (anastomosis) whenever possible to restore normal bowel function. In selected complex cases, a temporary or permanent stoma (colostomy or ileostomy) may be required to allow safe healing or when reconstruction is not feasible.

Postoperative Care

Following surgery, patients receive comprehensive postoperative care, including pain management, early mobilization, nutritional support, bowel function monitoring, infection prevention, and careful observation for any complications to ensure a smooth recovery.

RECOVERY

Recovery After Colorectal Cancer Surgery

Recovery after esophageal cancer surgery includes gradual healing, nutritional support, pain management, follow-up care, and a steady return to daily activities.

01.

Hospital Stay

Most patients remain in the hospital for 5 to 8 days, depending on the type of surgery performed and their postoperative recovery.

02.

Diet

Patients usually begin with clear liquids before gradually progressing to soft foods and a balanced diet as bowel function returns. Personalized nutritional guidance supports healing and long-term digestive health.

Activity

Early walking is encouraged soon after surgery to reduce the risk of complications. Most patients can gradually return to light daily activities within a few weeks, while strenuous exercise and heavy lifting should be avoided for 4 to 6 weeks.

04.

Follow-up

Regular follow-up appointments include wound evaluation, pathology review, tumor marker monitoring, imaging studies when required, and long-term surveillance to detect recurrence early and maintain overall health.
