Proctectomy involves removing diseased rectal tissue while aiming to achieve appropriate disease control and preserve bowel function whenever clinically possible. For selected rectal cancer cases, the procedure may include removal of surrounding fatty tissue and nearby lymph nodes. Depending on the location of the disease, surgery may be performed using open, laparoscopic, or robotic-assisted techniques, with reconstruction planned according to the remaining bowel and anal sphincter function.
At Clinique Internationale Marrakech, Proctectomy is performed using specialized colorectal surgical techniques and comprehensive diagnostic and cancer-staging assessment. Established in 2016, this accredited hospital in Marrakesh, Morocco has 160 beds and offers advanced colorectal surgery, minimally invasive procedures, gastroenterology, and surgical oncology services.
Proctectomy may be considered for selected patients with rectal cancer and other serious conditions requiring removal of diseased rectal tissue. Before surgery, investigations such as colonoscopy, pelvic MRI, CT imaging, and laboratory testing may be performed to determine the location and extent of disease. During the procedure, the affected rectal tissue is removed, with the surgical approach and extent of resection determined by the underlying condition and the patient's anatomy.
