Brief Summary

Laparoscopic right colectomy with intracorporeal anastomosis seems to be associated with several short-term benefits. It could reduce the postoperative infection rate and shorten the hospital stay. This study aimed to evaluate the postoperative surgical site infection (SSI) rate after laparoscopic right hemicolectomy with intracorporeal anastomosis, compared to extracorporeal anastomoses.

Study Arms (2)

Intracorporeal Anatomosis (IA)

Laparoscopic Right colectomy with intracorporeal (IA) side-to-side isoperistaltic anastomosis

Procedure: Laparoscopic right colectomy with intracorporeal anastomosis (IA)

Extracorporeal Anastomosis (EA)

Patients submitted to a Laparoscopic Right Colectomy with extracorporeal anastomosis (EA)

Procedure: Laparoscopic right colectomy with extracorporeal anastomosis (EA)

Interventions

First, the right colon dissection was completed by laparoscopy. An isoperistaltic side-to-side ileocolonic mechanical anastomosis was then performed by using a linear cutting stapler. The enterotomy used to enter the stapler was closed with a running suture (3-0 absorbable monofilament or a 3-0 barbed suture). Finally, the specimen was extracted through a Pfannenstiel mini-laparotomy (4-5 cm).

Intracorporeal Anatomosis (IA)

First, the right colon was widely mobilized. A small laparotomy was performed in the mid/upper abdomen to exteriorize the colon and to perform a side-to-side mechanical anastomosis, using a linear cutting stapler (GIA). The bowel opening was closed either with a manual suture or by a second firing of the GIA.

Extracorporeal Anastomosis (EA)
