During Colon Surgery your Surgeon will make a cut into your abdomen and take away the part of the colon that has the cancer. He will also take away a small section of the normal part of the colon on either side of the cancer. Then the rest of the pieces of you colon are then reattached. Nearby lymph nodes are taken out and then your Surgeon will close the cut he made earlier.
