Abstract:To compare the short-term outcomes and explore the potential economic benefits of laparoscopic-assisted colectomy with extracorporeal anastomosis (LAC/EA) vs. laparoscopic complete colectomy with intracorporeal anastomosis (LCC/IA) for patients with non-metastatic resectable colon cancer.

Propensity score matching (PSM) analyses was carried out to minimize the selection bias. Before PSM, a tot… Show more
