Coloproctology - what is it? This is a science that studies diseases of various etiologies that are localized in the large intestine (rectum and colon) and in the anus. There are about two hundred types of diseases that are treated by a coloproctologist. They also include the well-known: hemorrhoids, anal fissures, fistulas of the rectum, paraproctitis.
Symptoms in which you need to contact a coloproctologist
There is a certain list of symptomatic phenomena that are a sign for immediate medical attention:
- pain during bowel movements;
- itching and pain in the anus, sensation in this area of a foreign body;
- discomfort in the intestines;
- violation of the function of defecation (diarrhea, constipation);
- feeling of incomplete emptying;
- mucous discharge or blood protruding from the anus;
- prolapse of the hemorrhoid.
In order to neutralize the symptoms and produce the necessary treatment, coloproctology develops very quickly. What it is? The development of science consists in the creation and improvement of various treatment methods and the emergence of new drugs. An important point is the creation of the latest equipment, which allows you to quickly and easily carry out any necessary manipulations and examinations.
Science Center
The State Scientific Center of Coloproctology is located in Moscow. It is equipped with all necessary equipment for examinations, laboratory tests and surgical operations.
Each employee is highly professional in proctology, both reconstructive and general. This makes it possible to quickly and accurately determine the presence of a disease in a patient, conducting all necessary examinations, prescribing the most appropriate treatment and giving useful recommendations for maintaining health.
The most authoritative and narrowly targeted medical institution is precisely the State Scientific Center of Coloproctology. Its popularity is widespread not only in Moscow, but also throughout Russia. This is the first narrowly focused center that can solve any problem that has arisen in the large intestine, perineum and pelvic organs.
City Hospital
The coloproctology city hospital also performs the diagnosis and treatment of colon diseases. This direction is to some extent its hallmark. Several departments are distinguished depending on the type of disease and its stage. Each of them has a complete set of necessary equipment and qualified personnel.
That is why coloproctology is currently being widely studied in all medical institutions. What it is, it is sometimes difficult to understand for patients who apply, so for general development it will be enough to remember that this science provides treatment for diseases of the anus and large intestine.
What are the diagnoses in the hospital?
There are a large number of different methods for diagnosing diseases. The department of coloproctology conducts a comprehensive examination. Among the main methods can be identified:
- inspection;
- rectal examination with fingers;
- retroromanoscopy;
- anoscopy;
- Ultrasound of the abdomen;
- X-ray or endoscope examination.
Each of the examinations practically does not bring any discomfort or pain. In addition, thanks to modern technology, it has become possible to treat most diseases without surgical intervention.
Rectal studies, for which a microscope is used, allow you to analyze the condition of the mucous membrane of the rectum or colon, which will allow you to better prescribe treatment.
It is precisely due to the progression of diseases localized in the anus and colon that the rapidly developing science of coloproctology is required. What it is? The development may include the appearance of new equipment, new methods of treatment, improvement of examinations and rectal examinations by improving the skills of employees.
