Inside vs outside bowel connection after right colon surgery
Part of Cancer, Digestive system clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are age 18 to 80, and you can be male or female
- You have right-sided colon cancer (cecum, ascending colon, or the first part of the transverse colon) confirmed by tissue or cell testing
- Your cancer stage is I to III based on scans of your chest and abdomen, including any “downstaging” after imaging
- You are planning a right hemicolectomy (right-sided colon removal, sometimes extended) with a primary bowel connection
- Your case does not need emergency surgery (like bowel blockage or perforation) and you are not planning other abdominal organ surgeries at the same time
- You are not pregnant or breastfeeding, and you don’t have FAP or active Crohn’s disease or active ulcerative colitis

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.
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 tests whether adding a special dye (indocyanine green) during surgery to remove right-sided colon cancer helps the surgeon see and remove more lymph nodes. The goal is to improve cancer removal without adding extra risks.
This trial compares two types of surgery for right-sided colon (bowel) cancer: CME versus the usual right hemicolectomy. It may help doctors learn which approach works better and may guide future treatment choices.
This study compares two surgical approaches for removing the right side of the colon in certain women with colon cancer or a high-risk pre-cancer. It aims to see whether the less invasive transvaginal approach can be done safely and work as well as standard laparoscopic surgery.
