Minimally Invasive Colorectal Surgery
Definition
Minimally invasive colorectal surgery is a surgical technique that uses small or no incisions and specialized instruments to treat benign and malignant conditions in the colon and rectum. This approach results in faster recovery, less pain, and fewer complications than traditional open surgery. Types of minimally invasive colorectal surgery include laparoscopy, robot-assisted surgery, and transanal endoscopic microsurgery.
