Summary

This study is a multi-institutional, prospective, observational study evaluation oncologic outcomes of laparoscopic modified complete mesocolic excision (mCME) on right-sided colon cancer.

The primary outcome of this study is 3 year disease-free survival. Secondary outcome measures include 3 year overall survival, incidence of surgical complications, completeness of mCME, and distribution of metastatic lymph nodes.

Conditions

  • Adenocarcinoma of the Colon

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Laparoscopic modified complete mesocolic excision

First, complete kocherization may be required to clear possible tumor spread if the tumor is infiltrating or adhering to the duodenum or perinephric fat tissue. Second, if the tumor is locally advanced, the entire prerenal soft tissue behind Gerota's fascia may need to be cleared, especially for tumors growing toward the posterior. The third difference of mCME with the conventional CME involves the tailored resection of the mesocolon and ileal mesentery according to tumor location. After identifying the root of the middle colic artery, the site of the vascular ligation depends on the location of the tumor. When the tumor is located in the cecum and ascending colon, only the right branch of the middle colic artery is ligated. If the tumor was present in these latter sites, the root of the middle colic artery is ligated.
