Colon Resection Complications
Colon Resection Complications
As with any procedure, it's possible for complications to happen, although this is uncommon. Possible complications associated with laparoscopic colon resection procedures include:
- A leak between the joined sections of your colon
- Bleeding in your intestines
- Incision breaking open (dehiscence)
- Infection
- Injury to your bladder, ureters or blood vessels
- Intestines pushing through the incision into your belly (incisional hernia)
- Scar tissue that forms an intestinal blockage (stricture)
With expertise in every aspect of inflammatory bowel disease, we deliver comprehensive care before, during and after your procedure to help you avoid complications.
