Research
Mayo Clinic researchers look at methods to improve surgical techniques and patient outcomes, including colectomy procedures. Our studies also explore ways to enhance quality of life for those with a colostomy related to underlying health issues, such as colon and rectal cancers, inflammatory bowel disease, diverticulitis, and congenital conditions.
