Our clinic offers comprehensive colorectal surgery services, covering the entire care process from colorectal cancer screening and diagnosis to personalized treatment plans. In Hong Kong, colorectal surgery services are wide-ranging, covering everything from common conditions like hemorrhoids, polyps, and anal fissures to more complex conditions such as colorectal cancer, rectal cancer, and bowel obstruction. We specialize in diagnosing and treating various colorectal, rectal, and anal diseases, combining advanced technology with a professional team to ensure patients receive safe and effective medical care.<\/p>\n

Colorectal surgeons, with their expertise and extensive clinical experience, provide comprehensive treatment for patients, primarily covering the following diseases and examinations:<\/p>\n

1. Common colorectal diseases<\/h3>\n

Hemorrhoids (Piles): Includes internal, external, and mixed hemorrhoids. Common symptoms include bleeding, swelling, and pain. Anal fissures and anal fistulas: Anal fissures cause severe pain during bowel movements, while anal fistulas are abnormal passages formed due to infection. Colorectal polyps and colorectal cancer: Colorectal polyps may be an early sign of colorectal cancer; regular colonoscopies are recommended. Rectal prolapse: Common in patients with chronic constipation or postpartum, requiring surgical treatment. Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD): Such as Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, requiring continuous management by a specialist.<\/p>\n\n

2. Examination and Diagnosis<\/h3>\n

Advanced colonoscopy:
\nUsed to examine the internal condition of the intestines, detect polyps and signs of cancer, and remove polyps. Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD): For precise, non-surgical removal of larger polyps or early-stage cancer. Virtual colonoscopy: A non-invasive procedure suitable for specific patients. Gastroscopy: Suitable for patients who also require examination of the upper digestive tract.<\/p>\n\n

3. Surgical treatment services<\/h3>\n

Laparoscopic minimally invasive surgery: Suitable for colorectal cancer, rectal cancer, and intestinal obstruction, etc., with minimal trauma and rapid recovery.\n\nTransanal minimally invasive surgery (TAMIS):
\nUsed for the removal of early rectal lesions, it allows for lesion removal through the anus, reducing trauma and accelerating recovery.\n\nColorectal resection surgery:
\nThis includes traditional open surgery and da Vinci robotic-assisted surgery, the latter of which can improve surgical precision and reduce complications.<\/p>\n\n

The Importance of Colorectal Cancer Screening<\/h3>\n

Colorectal cancer screening is crucial for the prevention and early detection of intestinal diseases. According to Hong Kong cancer data, colorectal cancer is the second most common cancer in Hong Kong, and its incidence rate is increasing year by year. It is recommended that individuals meeting the following criteria undergo regular screening:
\nPeople over 50
\nFamily history of colorectal cancer
\nChronic constipation or changes in bowel habits
\nHistory of colorectal polyps or inflammatory bowel disease<\/p>\n\n

Use voluntary health insurance to reduce medical expenses<\/h3>\n

Voluntary Health Insurance (VHIS) plans cover many colorectal-related examinations and surgeries, with some insurance companies offering full reimbursement, covering the following costs:
\nColonoscopy and polyp removal
\nMinimally invasive surgery
\nHospitalization fees and anesthesia fees<\/p>\n\n
