Abstract:
Objective To investigate the safety and feasibility of robot-assisted laparoscopic right hemicolectomy for colonic cancer. Methods These 5 patients with ascending colonic cancer received robot-assisted laparoscopic right hemicolectomy. Results All operations were performed successfully. There was no postoperative complications. Da Vinci surgical system was found to be associated with fewer hemorrhage, rapid postoperative intestinal recovery, and therefore a shorter hospital stay. Conclusions Robot-assisted laparoscopic right hemicolectomy can be applied safely and with feasibility for colonic cancer.
