Abstract

Laparoscopic colorectal surgery (LCS) is considered as an efficient and safe technique for the management of benign and malignant colonic disorders, presenting all the benefits of minimally invasive surgery such as, reduced blood loss, less postoperative pain, earlier recovery of bowel transit, reduced hospitalization, improved cosmesis, and lower risk of incisional hernia.
