University Hospital provides specialised Small Bowel Resection with a focus on precise bowel resection, preservation of healthy intestinal tissue, appropriate minimally invasive techniques, and individualized postoperative management. Established in 1842, the SAC accredited hospital is located in Basel, Switzerland and operates 773 beds, with modern gastrointestinal surgery, diagnostic imaging, laparoscopic, robotic, intensive-care, and rehabilitation infrastructure.

Small Bowel Resection can provide an effective surgical treatment option for appropriately selected patients with localized or extensive small intestinal disease. Treatment planning considers the underlying diagnosis, location and length of affected bowel, severity of obstruction or inflammation, nutritional status, previous abdominal procedures, and overall health. A detailed surgical assessment helps determine the extent of resection and whether direct bowel reconnection or temporary diversion is most appropriate.
