ABOUT THE PROCEDURE
What is Colorectal Surgery?
Colorectal Surgery is a specialized branch of gastrointestinal surgery that focuses on the diagnosis and surgical treatment of diseases affecting the colon (large intestine), rectum, and anus. These conditions range from colorectal cancer, inflammatory bowel disease, diverticular disease, and rectal prolapse to hemorrhoids, fistulas, fissures, and other complex anorectal disorders. Depending on the condition, surgery may involve removal of diseased bowel segments, reconstruction of the intestine, or minimally invasive procedures to restore normal bowel function. Dr. Prashanth Koyyoda offers personalized colorectal surgical care using advanced laparoscopic techniques whenever appropriate.

HOW IS THE PROCEDURE PERFORMED?
How is Colorectal Surgery Performed?
Colorectal surgery is performed under anesthesia using open, laparoscopic, or robotic techniques to remove or repair affected bowel and restore intestinal continuity.
Preoperative Assessment
Before surgery, Dr. Prashanth Koyyoda performs a comprehensive evaluation that may include medical history, physical examination, colonoscopy, biopsy (when indicated), CT scan, MRI, blood investigations, and anesthetic assessment. Nutritional status and overall fitness for surgery are carefully evaluated to optimize outcomes.
General Anesthesia
Most colorectal procedures are performed under general anesthesia, ensuring complete patient comfort throughout the operation.
Surgical Procedure
The surgical approach depends on the underlying condition. Benign diseases may require removal of diseased bowel segments, repair of prolapse, or treatment of anorectal disorders. For colorectal cancer, the affected section of the colon or rectum, along with surrounding lymph nodes, is removed while preserving as much healthy bowel as possible. Whenever suitable, laparoscopic colorectal surgery is performed to minimize surgical trauma and enhance recovery.
Bowel Reconstruction
Following removal of the diseased bowel, the healthy ends of the intestine are usually reconnected (anastomosis) to restore normal bowel continuity. In selected complex cases, a temporary or permanent stoma may be required for safe healing.
Postoperative Care
Patients receive comprehensive postoperative care including pain management, early mobilization, nutritional support, bowel function monitoring, infection prevention, and individualized rehabilitation. Additional treatments such as chemotherapy may be recommended for cancer patients when indicated.
RECOVERY
Recovery After Colorectal Surgery
Recovery involves gradual diet progression, adequate hydration, wound care, gentle activity, prescribed medications, bowel management, and regular follow-up to support healing and recovery.
01.
Hospital Stay
Most patients remain in the hospital for 3 to 7 days, depending on the type of surgery performed and their recovery.
02.
Diet
Patients gradually progress from liquids to soft foods before returning to a balanced diet. Adequate hydration, fiber intake (when appropriate), and nutritional counseling support healthy bowel function and healing.
03.
Activity
Walking is encouraged soon after surgery. Most patients return to light daily activities within 2 to 4 weeks, while strenuous exercise and heavy lifting should be avoided for 4 to 6 weeks.
04.
Follow-up
Regular follow-up appointments help monitor recovery, wound healing, bowel function, pathology results, and long-term disease management. Cancer patients may require additional imaging, surveillance colonoscopy, or oncology consultation.
