Quicker bowel recovery after minimally invasive right colon surgery
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This study looks at whether a specific internal stitch connection (an anastomosis) helps your bowel start working sooner and may help you leave the hospital earlier after right colon surgery. It’s mainly for adults having planned, minimally invasive right hemicolectomy.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older
- You are scheduled for planned right colon removal (right hemicolectomy) using minimally invasive surgery (robot or laparoscopy)
- During surgery, surgeons plan to connect the bowel ends (an anastomosis)
- You are not pregnant
- No extra colon or rectum surgery is planned (for example, left colectomy or proctectomy)

This trial compares two surgical ways of connecting the bowel during laparoscopic surgery to remove right-sided colon cancer. It may help find which approach lowers complications and improves recovery after the operation.
This trial compares two types of minimally invasive surgery for right colon cancer (robotic vs. laparoscopic). It aims to see which approach may be better for recovery and outcomes.
This study looks at what happens right after minimally invasive colon/rectal surgery when people leave the operating room. It may help improve recovery plans and safety for patients like you.
This trial is testing how well hand-sewn or partially stitched connections (anastomoses) hold up after right colon removal for cancer. It may help improve surgical techniques for people undergoing this operation.
This trial compares a more complete surgery (removing the right colon and surrounding tissue more thoroughly) versus the usual right-colon surgery. It aims to see if the more thorough approach improves outcomes for people with non-metastatic right colon cancer.
This trial compares two surgical approaches—keyhole surgery versus open surgery—for right colon cancer. It aims to see which approach works better and is safer for patients needing planned (elective) tumor removal.
