Summary

Robotic right hemicolectomy with intra-corporeal anastomosis may have better short-term recovery outcomes and decreased incidence of incisional hernia when compared to the laparoscopic actual standard of care, for similar safety outcomes.

Detailed description

During laparoscopic right hemicolectomy (lapRHC) for cancer or polyp, intra-corporeal anastomosis (ICA) offers better short-term recovery and decreased incidence of incisional hernia (IH) when compared to extra-corporeal anastomosis (ECA). However, because of the technical limitations of laparoscopy, ICA has not gained in wide acceptance and ECA has remained the standard of care. On the contrary, robotics offers improved suturing capacities and facilitates the realization of ICA. Therefore, robotic right hemicolectomy (robRHC) with ICA may have better short-term recovery outcomes and decreased incidence of IH when compared to the laparoscopic actual standard of care. In a randomized controlled trial, we will compare robRHC with ICA with lapRHC with ECA, in terms of recovery of bowel function (time to first passage of faeces). Secondary outcomes will notably include length of stay, incidence of IH, patient-reported esthetical outcomes and safety outcomes (morbidity, mortality, proximal and distal margins, harvested lymph nodes).
