    Journal: Surg Laparosc Endosc; 1995 Feb; 5(1):75-6. PubMed ID: 7735548.
    Abstract:
    This clinical report describes a patient with sigmoid cancer who underwent a laparoscopic-assisted sigmoidectomy while also having an unsuspected carcinoma of cecum. We discuss the necessity of a complete preoperative evaluation (total colonoscopy and barium enema) in patients with colon cancers amenable to treatment by laparoscopic approach.
