Effects of colon and rectal surgery on individuals.

Perspective

Although colorectal surgery has long been established as a mainstay of colon cancer treatment, certain issues regarding technical fine-tuning to improve postoperative recurrence-free survival have continued to be debated in recent years. These include complete middle colectomy, therapeutic strategies for metastatic disease, the importance of hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy and surgical techniques for treating recurrent colorectal cancer. The most important complications of colorectal surgery are not only for specialists, but also for general surgeons and gastroenterologists. We also attempted to demonstrate strategies for minimizing intraoperative and postoperative complications.
