Abstract

Hartmann’s resection is a frequently performed procedure in an emergency setting including a colectomy with creation of an end colostomy and a blind rectal stump. Not all colostomies are subsequently reversed in an elective setting due to concerns of complications in a higher-risk patient population. A robotic reversal is presented in the chapter which facilitates a minimal invasive approach decreasing morbidity.
