Objective To explore the feasibility and short-term efficacy of "Head-central mixed way" in laparoscopic radical operation of right colon cancer.
Methods We retrospectively analyzed and compared the clinical data of 30 patients who carried out the laparoscopic radical operation of right colon cancer using the "Head-Central mixed way"(HCMW group) and 50 patients using the "Central way" (CW group).
Results The mean number of removal lymph node was not significantly different between two groups((21.3±8.12) in the HCMW group vs. (18.9±11.57) in the CW group, P > 0.05). As compared to CW group, the blood loss, the operative time and transfused patient number were less in the HCMW group(P < 0.05). There was no significant difference in postoperative complication rate or mortality between HCMW group and CW group(P > 0.05).
Conclusion Laparoscopic radical resection of the right colon cancer using "Head-central mixed way" is safe and feasible. The surgical methods are easy to grasp and form a standard.
