Cancer Management and Research Oct 01, 2019
Ouyang M, Luo Z, Wu J, et al. - Via this retrospective study, researchers assessed the efficacy of laparoscopic complete mesocolic excision (CME) guided by superior mesenteric artery vs laparoscopic conventional radical resection (CRR) performed for right-sided colon cancer. They analyzed patients with right-sided colon cancer who underwent CME (n = 107; January 2011 to December 2015) or CRR (n = 60; January 2008 to December 2010). Outcomes revealed the achievement of similar short-term outcomes, higher lymph node yield, and higher 3-year overall survival in correlation with CME for right-sided colon cancer guided by superior mesenteric artery when compared with CRR.
