Standardizing Right Hemicolectomy for Colon Cancer

Right
Start date: July 1, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

A surgical intervention might be highly variable amongst surgeons and centers. This variability has a potential relevance concerning clinical outcomes. For right-sided colon cancer, the laparoscopic right hemicolectomy (LRHC) knows substantial variation. Especially since the surgical technique has been evolving during the latest decade with the introduction of intracorporeal anastomosis, a dissection technique within the correct embryological planes (complete mesocolic excision) and central vascular ligation of the segmental branches at its origin, resulting in an optimal lymph node dissection. Given the insights from recent studies showing the association between quality of surgery and relevant clinical outcomes, there is a great need for a formative quality assessment of LRHC. Detailed objective assessment of the LRHC is currently not performed in clinical practice nor in surgical training. Quality assessment of LRHC has great potential to improve surgical training and furthermore, implementation of a standardized technique will ultimately lead to better quality of care for patients suffering from right-sided colon cancer. The main objective of this study is to improve surgical outcomes for patient with right-sided colon cancer by a prospective sequential interventional cohort study that aims to standardize the surgical technique with subsequent controlled implementation after standardized review of the current practice in a nationwide multicenter setting. The primary endpoint is the 30-day morbidity according to the Clavien-Dindo classification system.
