Abstract Background: This retrospective study aimed to compare long-term oncological outcomes between laparoscopic-assisted colectomy (LAC) with extracorporeal anastomosis (EA) and totally laparoscopic colectomy (TLC) with intracorporeal anastomosis (IA) for colon cancers, including right- and left-sided colon cancers.Methods: Patients with stage I–III colon cancers who underwent elective laparoscopic colectomy between January 2013 and December 2017 were analyzed retrospectively. Patients converted from laparoscopic to open surgery and R1/R2 resection were excluded. Propensity score matching (PSM) analysis (1:1) was performed to overcome patient selection bias.Results: A total of 388 patients were reviewed. After PSM, 83 patients in the EA group and 83 patients in the IA group were compared. Median follow-up was 56.5 months in the EA group and 55.5 months in the IA group. Estimated 3-year overall survival (OS) did not differ significantly between the EA group (86.6%; 95% confidence interval (CI), 77.4–92.4%) and IA group (84.8%; 95%CI, 75.0–91.1%; P = 0.68). Estimated 3-year disease-free survival (DFS) likewise did not differ significantly between the EA group (76.4%; 95%CI, 65.9–84.4%) and IA group (81.0%; 95%CI, 70.1–88.2%; P = 0.12).Conclusion: TLC with IA was comparable to LAC with EA in terms of 3-year OS and DFS. TLC with IA thus appears to offer an oncologically feasible procedure.

There are some reports of totally laparoscopic surgery performed by intracorporeal anastomosis without abdominal incision. However, intracorporeal anastomosis with prolapsing technique is difficult and complicated via laparoscopic surgery alone. We found it easier to achieve totally laparoscopic low anterior resection (LAR) by anastomosis anally. Our procedure was performed in 32 patients. After the prolapsed rectum with the tumor was transected, reconstruction was performed by using a double-stapling technique (DST) or a hand-sewn technique (HST). In the DST, the proximal colon was pulled outside transanally, and the anvil head was inserted into the colon and returned to the abdominal cavity. The anal-side rectum was closed using a linear stapling device, and DST was performed. The HST was modified from intersphincteric resection anastomosis. No patient experienced complications associated with this procedure. Cosmetic satisfaction was achieved. All patients obtained disease-free margins pathologically, and none experienced local recurrence. Intracorporeal anastomosis of totally laparoscopic low anterior resection is difficult via laparoscopic ports only. It can be simplified by operating with anastomosis via the anus.
