First feasibility study and short-term outcomes of laparoscopic-assisted anterior resection in colorectal cancer in Malaysia.

Conclusions: From this study, there was an observed shorter length of stay in the minimally invasive group of two days with similar oncologic resection outcomes. This shows that laparoscopic-assisted anterior resection is feasible in Malaysia with its potential benefits. PMID: 32178501 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
