Right Hemicolectomy: Surgical Management of Right Colon Cancer
University Health Network (UHN) and TVASurg have developed this video to educate patients about right hemicolectomy operations. If you would like to learn more, please visit the UHN Colorectal Cancer Program’s website at www.torontocolorectal.ca
The right hemicolectomy procedure is an operation used to treat cancer of the right side of the colon. During surgery, the right side of the colon is removed, along with the blood vessels and lymph nodes surrounding the tumour to both treat the tumour and understand the true extent of disease. This will also help guide future treatment recommendations. The remaining colon is then reconnected with the small intestine to facilitate normal digestion.

I had this surgery to remove two feet of twisted bowel. It was diseased. Ouch. Could have died from strangulation. It was done as emergency surgery.

I have had that surgery for crohn's in the UK in 1992.

Going to a right side laparoscopic surgery in May and the Dr said they reconnect the intestines outside the body then place them back inside. Anyone else had it done this way
