At Vinmec Ha Long Hospital, Subtotal Proctocolectomy is performed using specialized colorectal surgical techniques and comprehensive diagnostic assessment. Established in 2018, this JCI accredited hospital in Ha noi, Vietnam has 500 beds and offers advanced colorectal surgery, gastrointestinal care, surgical oncology, and minimally invasive procedures.

Subtotal Proctocolectomy may be considered when extensive disease affects the colon and removal of most of the colon is required while the rectum can be preserved temporarily or for future reconstruction. Before surgery, the colorectal specialist may review colonoscopy findings, imaging, laboratory results, nutritional status, and the underlying disease. During the procedure, the affected colon is removed while the rectum is retained, and intestinal continuity may be maintained through an ileorectal anastomosis or managed with an ileostomy depending on the clinical circumstances.
