A randomized controlled clinical trial to compare the outcomes of SMA- and SMV- orientated laparoscopic right hemicoloectomy for right colon cancer with a medial-to-lateral approach
In 2008, Germany scholar W. Hohenberger proposed the idea of complete mesocolic excision (CME) and central vascular ligation (CVL) for the standardization of colonic cancer surgery. This concept has been widely recognized and accepted. This radical operation attempts to remove the mesocolon intactly by careful dissection along the embryologic tissue planes and transection of the supplying vessels at their origin. For right-sided colon cancer, this approach involves division of the vessels at their origin from the superior mesenteric artery (SMA) and superior mesenteric vein (SMV). In our opinion, full exposure of the SMA and SMV is necessary to make sure that the origin of the colonic arteries being truly exposed and tied centrally at their origin and a maximal harvest of the regional lymphnodes. For locally advanced colon cancer, SMA- orientated surgery may be more meaningful to recerve a radical lymphadenectomy and bring benefit for their survival. However, in the traditional practise, the lymph node dissection is orientated by SMV and SMA is not exposed, tissue around SMA is left behind.
In this study, eligible patients with right colon cancer will be randomly allocated to receive either SMA- or SMV- orientated laparoscopic right hemicoloectomy. 100 patients will be enrolled in each group. In SMV- orientated surgery group, SMA is not exposed and the left boundary of resection is the left side of SMV. In SMA- orientated surgery group, the left boundary of resection is the left side of SMA and SMA is exposed.Artery sheath is not necessarily to be opened. Postoperative pathology will be analyzed with the number of lymph nodes retrieved. Postoperative recovery process and long term survival will be followed.

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.
You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

Studies differ in what they allow: check which steroid medicines, routes (tablets, injections, creams, inhalers, eye drops) and doses this study accepts.

Early complication is defined as a complication that occurred between the finish of the surgery and postoperative day. Complications includes anastomotic leakage, anastomotic bleeding, chyle leakage, wound infection, pulmonary embolism, myocardial infarction et al.The Clavien-Dindo Classification of Surgical Complications will be applied to access the degree of severity of postoperative complications.
