Outrageously Funny Word Dictionary :: Gyrectomy

👉 In surgery, a "gyrectomy" is a surgical procedure that involves removing or cutting out the large intestine (colon) and replacing it with an artificial colon. This can be done to treat conditions such as Crohn's disease or other inflammatory bowel diseases. The removal of the large intestine is usually done through a small incision in the abdomen, while the replacement of the colon is typically made using a tube inserted into the new colon called a "stent".
