We retrospectively evaluated the usefulness of minilaparotomy for the resection of transverse colon cancer, which has generally been considered difficult to resect laparoscopically. Patients for whom curative resection was attempted for transverse colon cancer (n \u200a=\u200a 21) or sigmoid colon cancer (n \u200a=\u200a 81) via minilaparotomy (skin incision, \u2264 7cm) were analyzed. The 2 groups did not significantly differ in terms of success rate of minilaparotomy (90.5% versus 97.5%), age, sex, pathologic stage, body mass index, operative time (mean, 133.5\u00a0minutes versus 122.5\u00a0minutes), blood loss (119.7\u00a0mL versus 92.4\u00a0mL), number of lymph nodes harvested, incidence of postoperative complications (9.5% versus 12.3%), postoperative length of stay, and 5-year disease-free survival rate (86.6% versus 79.6%). Minilaparotomy is feasible, safe, and favorable in terms of early oncologic outcome in patients with transverse colon cancer as well as those with sigmoid colon cancer.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.9738\/1372.1","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2012,12,13]],"date-time":"2012-12-13T18:34:45Z","timestamp":1355423685000},"page":"6-12","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Curative Resection of Transverse Colon Cancer via Minilaparotomy"],"prefix":"10.9738","volume":"96","author":[{"given":"Hideyuki","family":"Ishida","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Digestive Tract and General Surgery, Saitama Medical Center, Saitama Medical University, Saitama, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Tohru","family":"Ishiguro","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Digestive Tract and General Surgery, Saitama Medical Center, Saitama Medical University, Saitama, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Keiichiro","family":"Ishibashi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Digestive Tract and General Surgery, Saitama Medical Center, Saitama Medical University, Saitama, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Tomonori","family":"Ohsawa","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Digestive Tract and General Surgery, Saitama Medical Center, Saitama Medical University, Saitama, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Norimichi","family":"Okada","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Digestive Tract and General Surgery, Saitama Medical Center, Saitama Medical University, Saitama, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Kensuke","family":"Kumamoto","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Digestive Tract and General Surgery, Saitama Medical Center, Saitama Medical University, Saitama, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Norihiro","family":"Haga","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Digestive Tract and General Surgery, Saitama Medical Center, Saitama Medical University, Saitama, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"4721","reference":[{"issue":"9325","key":"i0020-8868-96-1-6-Lacy1","series-title":"Lancet","first-page":"2224","article-title":"Laparoscopy-assisted colectomy versus open colectomy for treatment of non-metastatic colon cancer: a randomized trial.","volume":"359","author":"Lacy, AM","year":"2002","unstructured":"Lacy, AM, Garc\u00eda-ValdecansasJC, DelgadoS, CastellsA, Taur\u00e1P, Piqu\u00e9JM, et al.
