Right and Extended Hemi Colectomy to Treat Colon Cancer
Image Description:
Illustration showing extended right hemi colectomy of the colon. This procedure involves the removal of the right side of the colon (shown in grey in the image) up to the splenic flexure, usually because of colon cancer but sometimes because of other diseases such as Crohn’s disease. The procedure is usually down via keyhole (or laprascopic) surgery and involves anastomosis to join the two ends of the remaining colon.
