Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2017 at "JAMA Surgery"
DOI: 10.1001/jamasurg.2017.1578
Abstract: Importance Numerous study findings suggest that the use of laparoscopy is associated with lower health care costs for many operations, including colectomy. The extent to which these differences are due to the laparoscopic approach itself… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ueg2.12388
Abstract: BACKGROUND Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis (PSC) is a hepatobiliary disease closely related to ulcerative colitis (UC). In PSC patients, colectomy has been linked to improved prognosis, especially following liver transplantation. This suggests an involvement of the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00384-019-03334-x
Abstract: Robotic surgery might have an advantage over conventional laparoscopy for colonic diverticulitis. We intend to compare both approaches in the elective management of left side diverticulitis. The National Surgical Quality Improvement Program (NSQIP) database (2012–2014)… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00423-021-02267-w
Abstract: Complete mesocolic excision (CME) and central vascular ligation (CVL) are becoming the standard procedure in laparoscopic right-sided colectomy. However, the approach to CME and CVL has not been established, although several useful approaches have been… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00464-020-07451-5
Abstract: Background Removal of pre-cancerous polyps on screening colonoscopy is a mainstay of colorectal cancer (CRC) prevention. Complex polyps may require surgical removal with colectomy, an operation with a 17% morbidity and 1.5% mortality rate. Recently,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10151-018-1793-2
Abstract: BackgroundHypothermia has been associated with an increase in the rate of infectious complications following colectomy. We hypothesized that a substantial fraction of temperature loss in patients undergoing elective colectomy occurs prior to operation.MethodsTemperature data were… read more here.
