Abstract
Aim: To evaluate the usefulness of laparoscopic colorectal surgeries as safe, oncologic, operative approach versus open colorectal surgeries. Our study intends to analyze & review the current role of laparoscopy in colorectal malignancy in comparison to open surgery
Materials and Method: A total of 40 patients were operated for colorectal malignancies, 25 by open technique and l5 by laparoscopic technique.. Based on the site of tumour, standard surgical procedures were performed either by laparoscopic or by open technique. Patients were followed up periodically and details with regard to hospital stay, post-operative complications, oncological clearance & recurrence were recorded. Patients were followed up for a mean period of 3-24 months.
Conclusion: Laparoscopy has undoubtedly surpassed open surgery with its benefits of smaller incision, reduced postoperative pain, decreased post op narcotic requirement, shorter hospital stay & quicker recovery.
Keywords: laparoscopic colorectal surgery, open colorectal surgery, and colorectal malignancy.
