9Surgery for Advanced Stages
When the tumor has grown through or into the colon, your doctor would suggest partial colectomy. This process involves the removal of the affected parts, along with several tissues around. It can be performed by a laparoscopy, which requires minimal invasion. Another option is the ostomy, which can establish a way for wastes to leave the body. In some cases, this is only temporary until the rectum or colon recovers from the surgery. [9]
