Between August 1995 and May 2001 laparoscopic colostomy was successfully carried out in 23 patients with advanced ovarian cancer, inoperable carcinoma of the anorectum or rectovaginal fistulas. There were no intraoperative or postoperative complications and postoperative recovery was rapid with all patients having function of the colostomy within 24 hrs and regaining their preoperative state of mobility on the second postoperative day. The laparoscopic approach allows the careful selection of the colostomy site, easy mobilisation of the colon, causing only little disruption to the intestinal function hence improving postoperative recovery. From Authors' experience, laparoscopic colostomy is a simple and safe operation in most cases and can be used as the preferred technique of intestinal diversion.

Objective: To investigate the efficacy of laparoscopic sigmoid extraperitoneal colostomy combined with pelvic peritoneal closure in abdominoperineal resection for low rectal cancer.
Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 162 patients with low rectal cancer, who underwent laparoscopic abdominoperineal resection from January 2015 to January 2019 at the Affiliated Peace Hospital of Changzhi Medical College. Extraperitoneal stoma construction was performed in 98 patients (study group), while 64 patients (control group) underwent the procedure without suturing the pelvic peritoneum.

Article Synopsis
- The text discusses a study comparing two surgical approaches, conventional multi-port laparoscopy (CL) and single-incision laparoscopic surgery (SILS), for patients undergoing Hartmann's reversal (HR), primarily after colostomy.
- A thorough online search led to the inclusion of two observational studies with 160 patients, revealing that SILS had a significantly shorter operative duration, while other outcomes like mortality and complications showed no significant differences.
- The conclusion indicates that, despite some limitations in the research, SILS is a quicker method with comparable safety and effectiveness to CL techniques.

In the surgical treatment of colorectal cancers, disease-free survival and life expectancy are inversely proportional to the increase in complications. We evaluated the superiority of colonoscopy and air and water tests in detecting anastomotic leaks in sigmoid and rectosigmoid junction colon cancers. Data of patients who underwent robotic/laparoscopic surgical procedures for sigmoid and rectosigmoid junctional colon cancers at a single center between January 2018 and February 24 were retrospectively evaluated.
