The ascending colon (or right colon) is the beginning part of the colon. It is usually located on the right side of the body, extending from the cecum upward. Although the colon is a continuous structure, the piece that is considered the ascending colon ends where the colon bends, just below the liver and gallbladder.
Removal of the ascending colon (right hemicolectomy) is common in midgut Neuroendocrine Cancer patients
