Abstract
Thirty cases of obstructing large bowel cancer were treated by emergency procedures like proximal colostomy (55%), caecostomy (3%), appendicostomy (2%), ileotransverse colostomy (6%), right hemicolectomy (14%), anterior resection (14%), Hartmann's procedure (3%) and Lahey's procedure (3%). Primary resection for tumours of the right colon and staged procedures for tumours of the left colon and rectum and are safe procedures in the management of obstructing large bowel cancer.Entities:
