The use of laparoscopic techniques in benign colorectal surgery has expanded over the past several years, but controversy continues to surround the use of laparoscopic resection in cases of colorectal carcinoma. Diagnostic laparoscopy, the creation of stomas, and limited resections are becoming reasonable indications for benign diseases. In cases of malignancy, resection through a conventional incision or a laparoscope must adhere to the same defined surgical oncologic principles. Current randomized trials comparing open resection to laparoscopic resection should address these concerns. Port-site recurrence remains a leading concern regarding the widespread acceptance of laparoscopic resection for colorectal carcinoma. This article focuses on the applications of laparoscopic colorectal surgery for malignant diseases. Further research in this area combined with advances in laparoscopic technology will be critical to the future successful application of laparoscopic surgery to colorectal carcinoma.
Treatment options for long gap esophageal atresia without tracheoesophageal fistula generally require several stages over many months. An early neonatal vascularized conduit would allow a tension-free anastomosis, but the precarious blood supply of the neonatal bowel makes mobilization and immediate interposition hazardous. This report describes the successful application of a strategy for primary reconstruction in the neonate using a short piece of colon mobilized into the mediastinum for subsequent delayed anastomosis.
