Total laparoscopic en bloc right hemicolectomy and pancreaticoduodenectomy with transvaginal specimen extraction for locally advanced right colon cancer: a case report.

For locally advanced right colon cancer (LARCC) invading duodenum, multivisceral resection is a curative surgical treatment, which is technically challenging when performed in a total laparoscopic approach. Herein, we report the first case of LARCC treated by total laparoscopic en bloc right hemicolectomy and pancreaticoduodenectomy with transvaginal specimen extraction. The patient was a 37-year-old female suffering from upper abdominal pain who was diagnosed with LARCC invading the duodenum by preoperative examination.

Pure transanal total mesorectal excision for rectal cancer: experience with 55 cases.

Background: Although the anatomic difficulties of laparoscopic surgery for rectal cancer have been resolved by hybrid transanal total mesorectal excision (h-taTME), a completely incisionless surgical procedure has not yet been developed. This study was performed to explore the efficacy of pure taTME (p-taTME) without laparoscopic assistance as a completely non-invasive surgical procedure for rectal cancer.

Methods: We retrospectively evaluated all patients with rectal cancer who underwent p-taTME between December 2015 and April 2018.

Recombinant human endostatin endostar inhibits tumor growth and metastasis in a mouse xenograft model of colon cancer.

To investigate the effects of recombinant human endostatin Endostar on metastasis and angiogenesis and lymphangiogenesis of colorectal cancer cells in a mouse xenograft model. Colon cancer cells SW620 were injected subcutaneously into the left hind flank of nude mice to establish mouse xenograft models. The mice were treated with normal saline or Endostar subcutaneously every other day.
