Comparison of the effects of laparoscope and open complete mesocolic excision in the treatment of right colon cancer

Objective To compare the effects of laparoscope and open complete mesocolic excision (CME) in the treatment of right colon cancer. Methods The retrospective case-control study was adopted.The clinical data of 139 patients with right colon cancer who underwent CME at the Second People's Hospital of Lianyungang from January 2014 to November 2017 were collected.The patients were divided into laparoscopy group(55 cases) and open group(84 cases). The postoperative recovery and oncology efficacy were compared. Results The operation time in the laparoscopy group[(172.8±25.9)min]was longer than that in the open group[(142.3±20.6)min](t=7.387, P 0.05). There were no statistically significant differences in the cumulative recurrence rate, cumulative survival rate and cumulative survival rate between the two groups after 3 years (all P>0.05). Conclusion Laparoscopic CME is minimally invasive and quick recovery, and laparoscopic CME has the same oncologic clearance effects, and is worthy of clinical application.
