    What is the partial removal of bowel?

    Dr. Rinta M Babu

    MBBS · 2 years of exp

    The bowel or intestine is the longest organ in the digestive system. Partial resection/removal can be a treatment of choice in situations where a part of the bowel is damaged, for eg, in intestinal obstruction which can lead to death and damage to the remaining part of the bowel. Obstruction or blockage could be due to several reasons which can even include cancer of the bowel. Cancer of the bowel can also cause outpouching growth which may also require removal. This procedure includes tying and cutting a part of the bowel followed by joining the cut ends and the bowel activity is resumed. Sometimes, a part of the bowel is placed out of the abdomen, till it completely heals.
