Concurrent laparoscopic right hemicolectomy and ultra-low anterior resection with colonic J-pouch anal anastomosis for synchronous carcinoma.
Techniques in coloproctology 2007;11(1):55-7.
An extensive large bowel resection with a single anastomosis is the accustomed management option for widely spaced synchronous colorectal neoplasms. We report a successful case of concurrent laparoscopic right hemicolectomy and ultra-low anterior resection with colonic J-pouch anal anastomosis in an 85-year-old man with synchronous cancers of the hepatic flexure and lowrectum. This surgical technique is advantageous for elderly patients as it provides the benefits of multiple segmental resection and laparoscopic surgery while potentially reducing mortality, time of procedure, postoperative pain, ileus, length of hospitalization and direct cost of care, and improving independence at discharge. The technique for efficient multiple extractions of specimens and effective reconstitution of pneumoperitoneum for a multistaged procedure is discussed.
