Total laparoscopic right hemicolectomy is a procedure that involves an intracorporeal anastomosis. This approach may reduce tissue injury resulting in a significant lower surgical stress response (SSR) compared with the same procedure performed with an extracorporeal anastomosis. The purpose of this study was to compare the SSR level between 2 groups of patients undergoing laparoscopic right hemicolectomy with intracorporeal or extracorporeal anastomosis. From June 2015 to December 2016, 60 patients were enrolled and randomized. Interleukin-6, C-reactive protein, procalcitonin, white blood cell count, cortisol, prolactin, prealbumin, albumin, triglycerides, and transferrin were analyzed preoperatively and at 1, 3, and 5 days postoperatively. Interleukin-6 and C-reactive protein levels were significantly lower in the intracorporeal group on days 1, 3, and 5 postoperatively compared with the extracorporeal group. Gastrointestinal recovery was significantly earlier in the intracorporeal group. The intracorporeal anastomosis in laparoscopic right hemicolectomy reduces SSR, which may play a role in bowel recovery.

Background: The benefits of the totally laparoscopic right hemicolectomy have been established, but its adoption has been limited by the challenges of intracorporeal suturing. While simulation is effective for training advanced surgical skills, no dedicated simulation-based course exists for intracorporeal ileo-transverse anastomosis (ICA). This study aimed to develop and validate a simulation module for training in ICA.

Mixed neuroendocrine-non-neuroendocrine neoplasm (MiNEN) of the colon is rare with a poor prognosis. Since the first description of a mixed neoplasm 100 years ago, the nomenclature has evolved, most recently with the 2022 World Health Organization (WHO) classification system. We describe our experience of a case of locoregionally advanced MiNEN of the descending colon treated with curative laparoscopic resection and adjuvant chemotherapy.

Introduction: The objective of this study is to compare the 5 year overall survival of patients with stage I-III colon cancer treated by laparoscopic colectomy versus open colectomy.
Methods: Using Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania Cancer Registry data from 2008 to 2018, we will emulate a phase III, multicenter, open-label, two-parallel-arm hypothetical target trial in adult patients with stage I-III colon cancer who received laparoscopic or open colectomy as an elective treatment. An inverse-probability weighted Royston‒Parmar parametric survival model (RPpsm) will be used to estimate the hazard ratio of laparoscopic versus open surgery after confounding factors are balanced between the two treatment arms.

Background: Familial adenomatous polyposis is a cancer-predisposing syndrome caused by germline pathogenic variants of the adenomatous polyposis coli gene, leading to numerous colorectal polyps and a high risk of colorectal cancer. Desmoid tumours have become significant in the management of familial adenomatous polyposis after a colectomy, yet the exact incidence remains undetermined due to a lack of dedicated surveillance.
Methods: This retrospective study accessed data from the prospectively maintained Hereditary Digestive Tumours Registry from 2000 to 2023.
