      Celiotomy is a surgical procedure involving an incision through the abdominal wall to gain access into the abdominal cavity. A bowel resection is where they remove a section or all of the bowel. Being an exploratory surgery means they are doing the surgery not knowing exactly what they will find and how much bowel they will need to remove.
