Completed mesocolic excision for right colon cancer: comparison between single-port laparoscopy and conventional laparoscopy

Complete mesocolic excision is believed to play an important role in the treatment for colon cancer. While evidence has shown that laparoscopic surgery is not a technique barrier for CME, the feasibility of single-port laparoscopy is still controversial. In this article we discussed the difference between the single-port and conventional laparoscopic CME surgery for right colon cancer and summarize the key techniques and tips for operation.
