[Usefulness of Laparoscopic Stoma Creation for Unresectable Colorectal Cancer].

Laparoscopic stoma creation enables good visualization of viscera within the abdominal cavity to ensure adequate mobilization of the large intestine. Laparoscopic stoma creation/construction was indicated and performed at our hospital in 7 patients who were diagnosed with unresectable colorectal cancer between July 2015 and May 2017. Duringthe ileostomy procedure, we made a skin incision at the stoma site and performed a single-incision(3-port)laparoscopic surgery.
