Do you mind me asking if anyone only had a small portion of their rectum and still had a successful reversal? I didn’t have cancer but did have a cyst removed that had attached to part of my rectum leaving me with a small section.

@brooke61290, I'm tagging a few members like @barbwith3cats @rhs @jvitanza1 @blinken and others to make sure they saw your question about the portion of rectum available to make a reversal possible.

Brooke, have you consulted with a surgeon about the possibility of a reversal in your case?
