    Journal: Langenbecks Arch Chir Suppl Kongressbd; 1996; 113():580-3. PubMed ID: 9101938.
    Abstract:
    Since 1992 laparoscopic-assisted resections have been performed in 43 patients with tumors of the right or left colon. Excluding one patient with anastomotic leak there were no harvest complications. After a mean follow-up of 25 months 26/39 patients are living without tumor progress or recurrence, none of the 39 patients have abdominal wall metastases as yet; nine patients died due to tumor progress.
