Condition

Colorectal Disease

Colorectal disease refers to conditions affecting the colon (large intestine) and rectum. These conditions may be benign, inflammatory, functional or malignant, and often require specialised investigation and management.

Understanding the Condition

Examples include:

Colorectal cancer
Bowel polyps
Inflammatory bowel disease (Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis)
Rectal bleeding
Change in bowel habit
Chronic constipation or obstructive symptoms
Familial bowel cancer syndromes

Management may involve colonoscopy, biopsy, surveillance programs, minimally invasive surgery, or complex colorectal resection. Care is tailored to each patient, with a strong focus on early detection, cancer prevention and evidence-based surgical techniques.
