Colopexia

/ˌkoʊloʊˈpɛkʃə/ noun

Definition

A surgical procedure to fix or secure the colon in place, also known as colonopexy.

Etymology

From Greek kolon (colon) + pexia (fixation). An alternate form of colonopexy using a slightly different Greek construction.

Kelly Says

Medical terminology has so many synonyms because doctors in different countries and time periods created their own terms—colopexia and colonopexy do the exact same thing but sound completely different!
