What are the risks of intestinal polyps surgery?


Committed to your health journey.
Intestinal polyps surgery risks include bleeding, wound infection and intestinal perforation. Details are as follows:
1.
If the polyp is large, it can lead to a large wound. If the intestinal polyp grows in a place with rich blood supply, bleeding may occur during and after surgery. Secondly, if the patient has diabetes, hypertension and other underlying diseases, it will also increase the risk of bleeding.
2. Wound infection
Due to the large number of bacteria in the intestinal tract, once the intestinal wound is invaded by bacteria after intestinal polyp surgery, infection may occur.
3. Intestinal perforation
Due to the relatively weak intestinal wall, intestinal mucosa will be injured during intestinal polyp surgery. If the intestinal wall tissue is cut too much or the polyp is too large, intestinal perforation may occur. Secondly, if the later healing is not good, perforation may also occur.
In addition to the above risks, the risks of intestinal polyp surgery include incomplete treatment, postoperative recurrence, cancer and other risks.
