​Bowel Cancer (Colorectal cancer) and Screening

  • Bowel cancer is the second leading cause of cancer death in the United Kingdom, killing approximately 16,000 people each year.

  • Around 41,000 people are diagnosed with this disease each year in the United Kingdom, making it the fourth most common cancer.

  • Most cases of bowel cancer (95%) occur in people over the age of 50, however, it can occur at any age.

  • For men, the lifetime risk of developing bowel cancer is 1 in 14 and for women, it is 1 in 19.
     

If you have risk factors for colon cancer or are concerned about symptoms suggestive of bowel cancer, we are more than happy to provide you with all the options available to you for screening or diagnostic testing. These include FIT (Faecal Immunochemical Test) stool test, colonoscopy or CT 'virtual' colonoscopy.

Symptoms suggestive of colorectal cancer.

 

  • A change in bowel habits, such as diarrhoea, constipation or more-frequent bowel movements

  • Dark maroon or bright red blood in stool

Simple to Complex Abdominal Wall Hernia Repair

Whether you have a simple abdominal wall hernia or a complex abdominal wall hernia, usually greater than 10 cm in size, we have the expertise to repair these. If appropriate, we can repair small hernias with minimally invasive surgery, allowing a quicker repair to occur. However, complex abdominal wall defects, especially those following GI surgery and incisional hernias, may require anterior or posterior component separations (ACS/PCS) for repair. 

Every patient is unique, so Mr Nunoo-Mensah will offer you care and treatment tailored to meet your needs. If a wider multidisciplinary team is required to provide the best outcome, he works with dedicated plastic surgeons at Cleveland Clinic London, including Edmund Fitzgerald O'Connor, who specializes in plastic surgery and reconstructive surgery and may also recommend an abdomnoplasty to ensure an excellent outcome tailored to individual patient needs.

Endometriosis

Endometriosis

There is currently no cure for endometriosis. Endometriosis can be treated in several ways in order to reduce symptoms, improve quality of life, and improve fertility. The most common treatments for endometriosis that do not require surgery are hormone therapy and pain management. However, in the event surgery is required, it may involve excision (removal of the endometrial tissue using cutting) or ablation (destroying of the endometriosis cells using radiofrequency energy).

Cleveland Clinic London is proud to host some of the leading gynaecological surgeons in the country, including Ms Elizabeth Ball, with whom Mr Nunoo-Mensah collaborates closely to treat pelvic endometriosis that may involve the bowels. Contact us if you think you may have endometriosis or if you have a working diagnosis of simple or complicated endometriosis and would like to discuss your options.
