It depends on the extent of surgery 4-10 hours.
Depends on what part of the colon is being removed, what method is being utilized, and why it is being done, but generally about 1-4 hours.
It depends on what colon surgery you are having and whether it is being done open, laparoscopic, or robotic assisted. That being said, I would say the average is about 4 hours.
Colon cancer surgery takes around an hour and a half to three hours.
