Laparoscopic vs open surgery for right colon cancer
Part of Cancer, Digestive system clinical trials.
This trial compares two types of surgery for right colon cancer: laparoscopic (small incisions with a camera) and open (a larger cut). The goal is to see which approach works better for removing the cancer and nearby lymph nodes.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been diagnosed with cancer in the right side of your colon.
- The cancer has not spread to other parts of your body (no metastasis).

This study compares two types of surgery to remove the right side of the colon for early-stage colon cancer: one using a robot and one using standard laparoscopy (keyhole surgery). It aims to see which approach has fewer technical errors during the operation.
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.
