Résumé
The role of laparoscopy for right colectomy remains controversial - largely because of a lack of standardization of the operative procedure, including a diversity of techniques including laparoscopy-assisted cases with extra-corporeal anastomosis and totally laparoscopic procedures with intra-corporeal anastomosis. METHODS: The charts of all patients who underwent right colectomy by a totally laparoscopic approach in our service since 2004 were reviewed and pre-, intra-, and postoperative data were collected. RESULTS: Eighty-two patients underwent totally laparoscopic right colectomy; of these, 32 had a BMI greater than 20 kg/m2 (39%). The mean operative duration was 113 minutes. In most cases, the operative specimen was extracted through a supra-pubic Pfannenstiel incision measuring 4-6 cm in length. Three cases were converted to a laparoscopy-assisted technique (in order to control the ileo-cecal vascular pedicle because of extensive nodal invasion in two cases, and to evaluate a hepatic flexure polyp in the third case). Overall morbidity was 29.3% and parietal morbidity was only 9.8%; there was no difference in morbidity between obese patients (BMI>30 kg/m2) and non-obese patients (BMI
