Abstract
Colon cancer is the fourth leading cause of cancer-specific mortality worldwide, with 610,000 related deaths each year, the fourth most common form of cancer in the United States) and the third leading cause of cancer-related death in the Western world.
The central point of the treatment is the adequate resection of the primary tumor. Since its introduction, Laparoscopic approach has been rapidly becoming the preferred treatment of surgical digestive diseases due to a number of reasons like reduced postoperative pain, hospital stay, daily activities return time, decreased morbidity rates and aesthetics.
Several studies emphasized the benefits of laparoscopic approach stating the significant advantages of reduced blood loss, early return of intestinal motility, lower overall morbidity, and shorter duration of hospital stay, leading to a general agreement on laparoscopic surgery as an alternative to conventional open surgery for colon cancer.
Laparoscopic colon resection for malignancy is now regarded as a valid alternative to traditional laparotomy. As compared to the open technique, the new surgical approach allows the same oncological radicality in terms of length of specimen, extent of regional lymphoadenectomy, and recurrence rate. However, the validity of laparoscopic resection for malignancy has yet to be confirmed in larger series with longer follow-up periods.
Study Aim:
The aim of our study was to evaluate the outcome of laparoscopic Right Hemicolectomy to overcome the burden of open approach.
Study methodology:
