Abstract

This chapter describes subtotal and total colectomy for inflammatory bowel disease. Partial colectomy (pull-through) for Hirschsprung’s disease is described in Chap. 30. Laparoscopy for colectomy has equivalent results to open colectomy [1]; however, it takes significantly longer to perform. It provides good access and results in better cosmesis and a lower incidence of small bowel obstruction due to adhesions [2]
