Colorectal Surgery

Colorectal Surgery

Colorectal surgery is a branch of medicine that specialises in treating conditions involving the colon, anus, and rectum. The discipline is sometimes known as proctology; however, this term is no longer frequently used in medicine and is now more frequently used to describe operations that explicitly target the anus and rectum.

The risk of morbidity and mortality is higher in colorectal surgery compared to other general surgery subspecialties.
