What are the surgical options for colorectal cancer obstruction?

Surgical methods for treating colorectal cancer obstruction generally include stent implantation, proximal enterostomy and short-circuit surgery.

1. Stenting is a medical technique used to implant a stent in the body. This procedure is often used to treat narrowed blood vessels and arterial diseases to restore normal blood flow. During the operation, the doctor will use a special catheter to deliver the stent into the patient's blood vessels or arteries and unfold it to expand the diameter of the blood vessels. This operation can usually significantly improve blood circulation and reduce the symptoms and risks caused by blood vessel blockage. Stenting is a safe and effective treatment method that has been widely used in clinical practice.

Patients can relieve problems caused by colorectal obstruction by undergoing stent placement. Placing a stent at the obstruction site can prop up the colorectum and promote intestinal circulation, thereby relieving the condition.

2. Proximal enterostomy is a surgical technique used to treat intestinal problems.

Generally, a small incision with a diameter of about three centimeters is needed near the colon to remove local skin and tissue to promote local patency and relieve colorectal cancer obstruction.

Short circuit surgery:

This treatment method can usually be chosen for patients with more serious conditions and obstructions that are difficult to remove. It can effectively separate the damaged intestine and connect the damaged small intestine with the normal intestine to achieve the therapeutic effect.

In addition to the above-mentioned surgical methods, other common treatment methods include abdominoperineal combined rectal cancer resection. When undergoing surgery, you should try to choose a standardized hospital to ensure the success rate of the surgery and avoid risks. After the operation, you should mainly rest in bed and avoid strenuous exercise to avoid affecting the healing of the wound. At the same time, you also need to go to the hospital for regular checkups to help observe the recovery of your body.
