Summary: Patients with locally advanced colon cancer who undergo laparoscopic colectomy experience better overall outcomes, shorter lengths of stay, and reduced postoperative ileus compared to those undergoing open colectomy. Laparoscopic colectomy is equally effective in obese/non-obese patients, T4a/T4b patients, and regardless of the location of the tumor.

Summary: This study comparing laparoscopic and open approaches for emergent/urgent partial colectomy for colonic obstruction from colonic cancer found that laparoscopic surgery was associated with lower morbidity and shorter hospitalization length, but longer operation duration compared to open surgery.

Summary: This study aimed to compare the techniques and outcomes of laparoscopic transverse colectomy with traditional laparoscopic right hemicolectomy and laparoscopic left hemicolectomy. The results showed that laparoscopic transverse colectomy is superior in lymphadenectomy, has fewer postoperative complications, and shorter recovery time.

Summary: This study compared outcomes of robotic (RC) and laparoscopic (LC) colectomy for colon cancer using a large national database. The results showed no differences in mortality or overall complications between the two approaches, but left-sided robotic surgery had the highest anastomotic leak rate.

Summary: This study evaluated the long-term outcomes of multi-port laparoscopic colectomy (MPC) versus single-incision laparoscopic colectomy (SILC) in colon cancer surgery, finding no significant differences in 5-year RFS, OS, and recurrence patterns between the two approaches.

Summary: The study demonstrated that laparoscopic complete mesocolic excision (CME) for right-sided colon cancer (RCC) is technically feasible and safe, with similar postoperative complication rates as laparoscopic non-complete mesocolic excision (NCME). Additionally, CME resulted in a higher number of harvested lymph nodes compared to NCME.

Summary: This study compared the intraoperative and short-term postoperative outcomes of robot-assisted surgery with laparoscopic surgery for left-sided colon cancer in Denmark. The results showed that robot-assisted surgery had a lower conversion rate and a higher lymph node yield compared to laparoscopic surgery, with similar postoperative complications and mortality rates.

Summary: This study investigated the application value of totally laparoscopic right hemicolectomy with transcolonic natural orifice specimen extraction (NOSE) and found that the NOSE group had superior postoperative recovery outcomes compared to the mini-laparotomy group. The results suggest that transcolonic NOSE surgery may be a safe and effective minimally invasive option for selected patients with ascending colon cancer.

Summary: This meta-analysis suggests that laparoscopic colectomy (LC) is associated with decreased blood loss, perioperative transfusion, complications, wound infection, and length of hospital stay compared to open colectomy (OC) in patients with T4 colon cancer. The study also found no significant differences in 5-year overall survival, disease-free survival, R0 resection rate, positive resection margin, lymph nodes harvested >= 12, and recurrence between the two groups. Trial Sequential Analysis (TSA) results indicate that LC has reliable advantages in terms of perioperative transfusion and comparable oncological outcomes, and further studies are unnecessary.

Summary: This study compared the outcomes of robot-assisted colon cancer surgery to conventional laparoscopy and found similar clinical outcomes between the two approaches for selective cT1-3M0 right, left, and sigmoid colectomy. However, the conversion rate was consistently lower in the robot-assisted procedures.

Summary: This nationwide multicenter study investigated the anatomic patterns of the gastrocolic trunk of Henle acute accent (GTH) region and its implications in laparoscopic right colectomy with D3 lymphadenectomy (D3-RC). The study found that variations in GTH pattern can affect surgical outcomes and better recognition of GTH anatomy may lead to a safer operation with better oncologic quality.

Summary: This study aimed to investigate the effect of daikenchuto on abdominal symptoms following laparoscopic colectomy in patients with left-sided colon cancer. The results showed that daikenchuto did not improve the abdominal symptoms, and there were differences in metabolites and gut microbiome between the two groups. Further investigation is needed to explore the effects of daikenchuto on metabolites and gut microbiome.
