Chronic constipation is a heterogeneous disease with multiple symptoms, and its incidence is on the rise in many countries. It has become a common disease affecting the quality of life. When these patients fail to respond to standardized and systematic non-surgical treatment, and the relevant examination suggests that there are surgical indications, surgical treatment should be considered. TThe objective of this study was to explore the efficacy and safety of surgical treatment for constipation, as well as the changes in postoperative nutrition, intestinal motility, intestinal flora and quality of life.

Colonic subtotal resection, also known as subtotal colectomy, is a surgical procedure used to treat colonic diseases such asconstipation, colon cancer, ulcerative colitis, and others. The purpose of this surgery is to remove a portion of the colon in the patient's body. Unlike a total colectomy, which involves removing the entire colon, a subtotal colectomy only removes a portion of the colon. The procedure typically involves removing the diseased part of the colon and reconnecting the remaining colon. This allows for the preservation of some normal colonic function, enabling the patient to have regular bowel movements.

The nutritional status of the patients was assessed according to the scores of nutritional risk screening and assessment tool Nutritional Risk Screening2022(NRS2002)
The full length of NRS2002 is called Nutritional Risk Screening2022. The minimum score is 0 and the maximum score is 3, with higher scores indicating higher nutritional risk.
Time frame: Baseline and 1、6、12 and 24 months after surgery
The nutritional status of the patients was assessed according to the scores of nutritional risk screening and assessment tool Malnutrition Universal Screening Tool (MUST).
The full name of MUST is Malnutrition Universal Screening Tool, score 0: low risk; Score 1: moderate risk; A score of 2 or higher is considered high risk.
Time frame: Baseline and 1、6、12 and 24 months after surgery
The nutritional status of the patients was assessed according to the scores of nutritional risk screening and assessment tool Mini Nutritional Assessment (MNA).
Mini Nutritional Assessment (MNA) is defined as "good nutritional status" when MNA≥24. 17≤MNA \< 24, nutritional risk; MNA \< 17 indicated malnutrition.
Time frame: Baseline and 1、6、12 and 24 months after surgery
The peristalsis status of patients was evaluated according to the frequency of defecation and the character of feces.
Time frame: Baseline and 1、6、12 and 24 months after surgery
The changes of fecal microbiota were detected by 16SDNA sequencing.
Time frame: Baseline and 1、6、12 and 24 months after surgery
Quantitative changes in immune cells were determined by flow cytometry of blood samples.
Time frame: Baseline and 1、6、12 and 24 months after surgery
Changes of intestinal motility after surgical treatment for constipation.
The intestinal transit time of patients was detected
Time frame: Baseline and 1、6、12 and 24 months after surgery
Changes of defecation after surgical treatment for constipation.
The frequency of postoperative defecation, the characteristics of stool and the force of defecation were studied by asking patients to record their defecation diary.
Time frame: Baseline and 1、6、12 and 24 months after surgery
Changes of quality of life after surgical treatment for constipation.
Patients were evaluated using the quality of Life assessment scale.
Time frame: Baseline and 1、6、12 and 24 months after surgery
