- The main treatment for bowel cancer is surgery which involves removal the affected part of the bowel. Treatment also depends on the location and stage of the cancer.
Some patients need pre-operative treatment (with chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy) before surgery is performed. The common bowel cancer operations usually involve three main steps: mobilisation, resection and anastomosis (rejoining the bowel)/ or stoma formation.

My dad found out last week that he had a growth, bowel cancer. And they got him in for surgery a week later. He is in a lot of pain and his stomach has swollen so they’ve taken him off food. He went for an x ray and now waiting for results. He is 79 years old, I hope they removed all the cancer and that he doesn’t need chemotherapy and will recover well. I’m really worried but I hope it will all work out.
