Laparoscopic Colectomy and the General Surgeon
Journal of Gastrointestinal Surgery, 2016Laparoscopic colectomy has a shorter length of stay and less analgesic requirements than its open counterpart. Studies have suggested a learning curve of 30 cases. It is uncertain whether surgeons in rural settings have the case volume to acquire and maintain the necessary skill set.

Laparoscopically Assisted Subtotal Colectomy
Journal of Laparoendoscopic Surgery, 1993A technique for laparoscopic total resection of the colon performed in six patients is reported. The diseased colon was separated from the mesocolon and the greater omentum by electrocoagulation and sharp dissection. The mesenteric vessels were divided using an Endo GIA stapling device (AutoSuture, France). The whole colon was removed after transection

Is complete laparoscopic colectomy superior to laparoscopic assisted colectomy?
The American surgeon, 1996Much debate has centered around what constitutes a true laparoscopic colon resection. Purists argue that intracorporeal division of the mesentery and anastomosis confer a benefit over a "laparoscopic assisted" procedure. The aim of this study was to further examine this issue.

Intraoperative endoscopy in laparoscopic colectomy
Surgical Endoscopy, 2002The localization of focal colonic pathologies is problematical in laparoscopic surgery because it is difficult to palpate the colon. The aim of this study was to evaluate the use of intraoperative lower endoscopy in laparoscopic segmental colectomy.We did a retrospective review of the charts of patients who had undergone laparoscopic segmental ...

Colonoscopic-assisted laparoscopic colectomy
Surgical Endoscopy, 1994One of the technical difficulties during laparoscopic and laparoscopic-assisted resection of the right, transverse, and left colon is the mobilization of the splenic and hepatic flexures. We present a simple technique of colonoscopic traction of the splenic or hepatic flexure.

Single-port laparoscopic colectomy
Techniques in Coloproctology, 2012Single-port laparoscopy (SPL) for colorectal surgery was first described for a right hemicolectomy in 2008. Since then, technology and experience have advanced, and SPL is now reported for a variety of colorectal procedures. Multiple case series and reports have demonstrated the adequate safety of SPL, but there are few reports of a measurable benefit ...

Converted laparoscopic colectomy
Surgical Endoscopy, 2006The safety and benefits of laparoscopic colon resection are well documented. However, few reports have addressed the safety and comparative outcome of laparoscopic colon operations that necessitated conversion.All consecutive laparoscopic colon resections performed by a single surgeon from July 1996 to October 2003 were assessed.

Open Colectomies vs. Laparoscopic Colectomies
Diseases of the Colon & Rectum, 2009To the Editor-I read with interest the article by Moloo et al.1 and appreciate the attempt by the authors to demonstrate that the results of randomized clinical trials comparing open colectomies (OC) with laparoscopic colectomies (LC) can be generalized to real-world practice settings.
