Right colectomy is the removal of the ascending colon and one third of the transverse colon to treat benign as well as malignant diseases of the colon. Compared with traditional open surgery, laparoscopic colectomy has many more outstanding advantages and is increasingly being applied in medicine.

A diverticulum is a bulge of a round mass in the colon. It occurs when the inner lining of the colon weakens and forms one or more pouches. When these pouches become inflamed or infected, it is called diverticulitis.

In Tay Tay, half of people over 60% develop diverticulitis, but only 10%-25% of people continue to develop diverticulitis. Diverticulitis usually develops when the waste outlet in the sacs is blocked, the stagnation allows bacteria to accumulate and cause infection. Inflammation spreads to surrounding fatty tissue, sometimes perforation of the diverticulum leads to abscess formation or peritonitis. Rarely, a colonic fistula may form with the bladder, fallopian tubes, uterus, and vagina.

For very low rectal tumors, where the sphincter cannot be preserved, surgical resection of the colon, rectum, and anus is required. Thus, after surgery, the patient will wear an artificial anus for life.

Short bowel syndrome (SBS) is a malabsorption condition. This syndrome is usually not clinically apparent if approximately three-quarters of the small bowel (SB) is not resected. Because of the broad short bowel length and the compensatory capacity for bowel resection, the definition of short bowel syndrome is not based on the length of the remaining bowel.

Colonic diverticulitis if not diagnosed and treated early can leave many serious complications, in which diverticulitis is the most common complication. Treatment of a complicated colonic diverticulum may require a combination of medical therapy and surgical removal of the colonic diverticulum.

In recent years, non-polyposis colorectal tumors (sessile polyps) and especially lateral spread tumors (LSTs) are becoming a huge concern. These lesions have a higher frequency of high-grade dysplasia (HGD) and are more locally invasive than nodules of the same size.

Many patients often wonder "Can ulcerative colitis be cured". However, there is currently no definitive treatment for ulcerative colitis. Current medical treatments aim to increase the time between flare-ups and make symptoms less severe.
