Colorectal surgery is performed for many diseases such
as colorectal cancer, ulcerative colitis, Crohn’s disease,
mechanical bowel obstruction and recurrent diverticulitis,
often resulting in major reconstruction of the gastrointestinal
tract. Injury, ischemia, rectal prolapse and
proctological disorders may also require large or small
bowel resection. Potential risks of colorectal surgery are
mainly those of any major abdominal surgery, and
usually occur while the patient is still in the hospital.
Because of the many indications for and the various
extents of colorectal or small bowel resections the rate
and spectrum of complications differ
