Haar Orthopedics & Sports Medicine is a trusted healthcare provider for Subtotal Proctocolectomy, offering complex colorectal surgery supported by experienced colorectal surgeons, gastroenterologists, surgical oncologists, stoma therapists, anesthesiologists, and multidisciplinary gastrointestinal teams. Established in 1863, the accredited hospital is situated in New York, United States and has 205 beds.
Subtotal Proctocolectomy involves removing the majority or entirety of the colon while leaving the rectum in place. In selected patients, the remaining small intestine may be connected to the rectum to allow stool to pass through the natural route. When direct reconnection is not appropriate, an ileostomy may be created to divert intestinal contents. The exact surgical plan depends on the underlying disease, condition of the rectum, sphincter function, and overall health.
