Totally robotic modified complete mesocolic excision and central vascular ligation for right-sided colon cancer: technical feasibility and mid-term oncologic outcomes

摘要

Background Recently, an operative strategy involving complete mesocolic excision (CME) and central vascular ligation (CVL) for colonic cancer has been introduced. We aimed to describe our initial experience and assess the long-term outcomes of robotic modified CME (mCME) and CVL (mCME+CVL) for right-sided colon cancer.
