A member asked:
What causes colon to move up to liver? seen during appendectomy where 3 laparoscopic incisions were made. very sore, took no pain meds after!
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Normal Variation: Some people have colons that are not at closely attached to the walls of the abdomen and back. In this case the right colon has less connections, and easily moves up toward the liver.
