1714Laparoscopic Colorectal Surgery
Laparoscopic Colorectal Surgery
Laparoscopic ("key-hole") colorectal procedures are minimally invasive, and have the proven benefits of less pain, faster return to normal eating and drinking, faster return of bowel function and a shorter hospital stay.
1723Rectal Prolapse Surgery
Rectal Prolapse Surgery
Rectal prolapse is a protrusion of the bowel into the anal canal, or external. Procedures can be performed abdominally, where the approach is through the abdominal cavity, or perineal, that is through the rectum.
1719Robotic Colorectal Surgery

1725Transanal Endoscopic Microscopic Surgery

Transanal endoscopic microscopic surgery (TEMS or TEO). This minimally invasive technique allows removal of rectal adenomas and early cancers without a major colorectal resection.
1727Anal Incontinence Treatment
Anal Incontinence Treatment
Anal or faecal incontinence can be a very debilitating disease.
1744Colonoscopy
Colonoscopy

1742Surgery For Endometriosis
