AI Article Synopsis
- The debate in laparoscopic surgery revolves around whether intracorporeal (ICA) or extracorporeal (ECA) anastomosis is the better technique for laparoscopic colectomy, with studies showing both methods have similar safety and efficacy.
- Research suggests that ICA may offer additional benefits, including quicker recovery of bowel function, reduced postoperative pain, smaller incisions, and lower chances of wound infections.
- The article also shares practical advice for performing various types of laparoscopic ICAs during laparoscopic colectomy procedures.
Article Abstract
Given the progression of laparoscopic surgery, questions continue to arise as to the ideal technique for a laparoscopic colectomy. The most debated of these questions is whether it is best to complete an intracorporeal (ICA) or extracorporeal (ECA) intestinal anastomosis. Here, we review the literature to date and report the equivalent safety and efficacy of ICA and ECA for laparoscopic right colectomy. However, these studies also indicate that when completed, ICA may prove beneficial with respect to earlier return of bowel function, less postoperative pain, shorter incision length, and reduced risk of wound infections. For this, we present the tips and tricks for completing all forms of laparoscopic ICAs during laparoscopic colectomy.

Risk factors and protective measures for desmoid tumours in familial adenomatous polyposis: retrospective cohort study.
BJS Open
December 2024
Unit of Hereditary Digestive Tract Tumours, Fondazione IRCCS Istituto Nazionale dei Tumouri, Milan, Italy.
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.
European multicentre analysis of the implementation of robotic complete mesocolic excision for right-sided colon tumours.

Colorectal Surgery Unit, General Surgery Department, Marqués de Valdecilla University Hospital, Santander, Spain.
Aim: Complete mesocolic excision (CME) is an oncologically driven technique for treating right colon cancer. While laparoscopic CME is technically demanding and has been associated with more complications, the robotic approach might reduce morbidity. The aim of this study was to assess the safety of stepwise implementation of robotic CME.

Royal Brisbane and Women's Hospital, Butterfield St., Herston, QLD, 4006, Australia.
Purpose: Given the evolving literature regarding the optimal surgical approach to mitigate post-operative recurrence of Crohn's disease (CD), this survey study aimed to elucidate the practices and preferences of colorectal surgeons in Australia and New Zealand (ANZ) in their surgical management of CD.
Methods: Colorectal surgical consultants and fellows (n = 337) registered with the Colorectal Surgical Society of Australia and New Zealand (CSSANZ) were invited by email in April 2022 to participate in a cross-sectional survey consisting of basic demographics and 12 questions relating to their usual surgical practice and preferred operative strategy.
Results: A total of 135 responses were received (39.
Anatomic association between the gastrocolic trunk of Henle and right colic artery by high-quality CT venography.
Sci Rep

Department of general surgery (intestinal surgery), The Sixth Affiliated Hospital, Sun Yat-Sen University, 26 Yuancun Erheng Rd, Guangzhou, 510655, Guangdong, People's Republic of China.
In hepatic flexure and transverse colon cancer surgeries, mobilizing the right mesocolon and precisely dissecting the gastrocolic trunk of Henle (GTH) are crucial. Previous classifications of GTH tributaries do not guide radical right hemicolectomy due to post-procedural anatomical acquisition. This study analyzed vessel associations, including the middle colic vein (MCV) converging site, right colic artery (RCA) presence, and other GTH tributaries, using ultra-thin CT for reconstruction.
