Colorectal cancer diagnosis and surgery

 

Our unit provides an extensive cancer management service for all aspects of colorectal cancer, specialising in multi-visceral resections for advanced primary cancers. This includes:

  • diagnosis, multi-disciplinary assessment and treatment
  • all colorectal cancer surgery
  • posterior, anterior and total exenteration for complex cancer surgery
  • rectal cancer ultrasonographic staging
  • family history clinics for advice, screening and further genetic referral if required
  • laparascopic keyhole surgery
  • fast track diagnostic investigations for suspected cancers

Mr Mark George is the colorectal cancer network chair, and so our unit is fully involved in all cancer developments across the region.
