Several randomized controlled trials have demonstrated the superiority of HALS colonic surgery over traditional open techniques. In 2004, Kang etal. compared perioperative outcomes in 60 patients randomized to HAL or open colectomy. The study demonstrated shorter hospital stay, incision length, faster gastrointestinal function recovery, less analgesic use, and lower pain scores, with no differences in operative time or complications [25]. A similar study in 2007 examined 81 patients undergoing non-emergent colectomy for nonmetastatic right-sided lesions, demon­strating less blood loss, less pain and analgesia use, faster recovery, and shorter hospital stay but longer operative times (12.5 min) for HALS colectomy. Furthermore, long-term follow-up 28months demonstrated no difference in disease recurrence or 5-year survival rates between HAL and open cohorts [26]. Finally, Sheng etal., in a report on 116 randomized patients, noted that HALS patients had a signicantly shorter incision length, less blood loss, less pain, earlier passage of atus, and shorter length of stay but longer operative time and higher costs com­pared to open cohorts. These three studies demonstrated improved perioperative outcomes for HALS over open colectomy, despite some reports of longer operative times and higher costs (Table19.1) [27].
These outcomes are supported by retrospective National Surgical Quality Improvement Program (NSQIP) data reporting lower hospital stay and morbidity as dened as supercial surgical site infection (SSI), deep SSI, organ space SSI, wound disruption, sepsis, bleeding, and ileus [28]. As with previous comparisons of lapa­roscopic to open colectomy, HALS minimally invasive techniques provide improved perioperative outcomes, lower morbidity, and shorter hospital stay in the context of similar oncologic outcomes. An extensive review of the literature published in 2010 looking at studies comparing HALS versus open resection concluded that HALS has advantages over open surgery while reducing some of the disadvantages of lapa­roscopic surgery, and, overall, HALS provides an excellent treatment option for the management of colorectal disease [29].
In addition to offering advantages over open operation, HALS has also been demonstrated to have specic benets over conventional laparoscopy. The HALS Study Group reported a series in which 40 patients were randomized to HALS ver­sus straight laparoscopic operation for either benign or incurable malignant disease, reporting similar operative time, incision length, conversion rates, return of bowel function, length of stay, postoperative pain, and rate of functional recovery. The study concluded that HALS is safe and retains the perioperative benets of mini­mally invasive laparoscopic colectomy and may allow a surgeon to perform com­plex operations more easily [30]. Marcello etal. reported a multicenter randomized trial examining HALS vs. laparoscopic sigmoid and total colectomy. Operative times were signicantly decreased in the HALS group, though incision length was longer. There were no differences noted in perioperative parameters or conversion rates [17]. Examining long-term oncologic outcomes following right colectomy, Ng etal. demonstrated no difference in 5-year survival rates between HALS and lapa­roscopic groups, with no signicant differences noted in operating time, length of stay, and morbidity [31]. Last, Targarona et al. examined clinical outcomes and inammatory response of HALS vs. laparoscopic surgery, noting lower conversion

rate (7 vs. 23%) but increased interleuken-6 (IL-6) and C-reactive protein (CRP) during the postoperative period for HALS (Table19.2) [32].
Clearly HALS is associated with equivalent perioperative outcome parameters and oncologic outcomes compared to purely laparoscopic approaches. A recent meta-analysis of the data concluded that compared to straight laparoscopic opera­tions, HALS exhibited reduced operative times, a reduction in the likelihood of conversion to open operation, and no difference in hospital length of stay. The authors concluded that HALS approaches can provide a more efcient segmental colectomy compared to laparoscopic colectomy and the advantages for the HALS approach were particularly evident when the indication for operation was diverticu­litis. They suggested that HALS must be considered a valuable addition to the lapa­roscopic armamentarium [14]. The reduced operative times and conversion rates demonstrating the effectiveness of HALS colectomy compared to laparoscopy are also supported by institutional reviews and nationwide database studies. The NSQIP targeted colectomy data set comparing HALS, and laparoscopy has demonstrated shorter operating times with similar hospital stay in HALS compared to laparo­scopic cohorts. However, higher odds of SSI in the HALS group compared to straight laparoscopy was also reported. Other similar single-institution reviews of

Conclusions

The surgical literature and practical considerations endorse HALS colon surgery as an appropriate, oncologically sound technique with many advantages over open sur­gery and several over laparoscopy. While HALS was initially considered an inter­mediate operation meant to encourage laparoscopic skill development, this is no longer the case. HALS colorectal surgery can be a destination operation that has advantages over open surgery and achieves the short-term benets of straight lapa­roscopic operation while saving time in the operating room and minimizing

conversion rates. Especially for complicated operations, extended resections, and operations conducted in overweight or obese patients, a HALS approach is a valu­able technique for the minimally invasive surgeon to have at his or her disposal. The available data supports these contentions. So, to the question “is there still a role for hand-assisted laparoscopic surgery?” for colorectal disease, the authors would answer with an emphatic “yes.”

Introduction

I began laparoscopic colectomy in late 1992, and I have now performed about 1300 colorectal procedures. At the beginning, all procedures were laparoscopic-assisted with extracorporeal anastomoses. While early procedures were performed with a lateral to medial dissection, almost all are now performed medial to lateral. At the beginning, all blood vessels were divided with clips and ties (or endoloop); now every blood vessel is divided with either an energy source or vascular-loaded sta­pling devices. I began to switch to an intracorporeal technique in 2007; the reason why is an interesting, short story. I was performing a demonstration right colectomy for cancer at a teaching conference in Europe. I was getting ready to extract the specimen in my usual way when Professor Jacques Perrisat asked me, “Why don’t you make the anastomosis intracorporeally?” He then said, “It’s sitting right in front of you, and you know how to use staplers and you can sew.” He was correct. So, my rst intracorporeal anastomosis was on closed circuit television to more than 100 surgeons. It went beautifully. As the patient had a body mass index (BMI) of 36, I was able to make a relatively short Pfannenstiel incision for extraction (my usual incision was transverse midline). The postoperative pain difference was dramatic, and I have not done an extracorporeal anastomosis for a right colon since then.
Advantages ofIC Anastomosis
It was difcult to change after having already performed more than 500 right colec­tomies in an extracorporeal fashion. I couldn’t believe that there was a better way. Therefore, I began a prospective study of my own cases, comparing consecutive cases [1]. Tables 20.1 and 20.2 list the patient demographics and intraoperative nd­ings in these two, consecutive groups of patients. There were no statistical differ­ences in any category except that it took longer in the intracorporeal group, but the blood loss was more in the extracorporeal group. The clinical differences in the post-op course are listed in Table20.3, and they were dramatic, all in favor of intra­corporeal anastomosis group.
The study clearly demonstrated less morbidity with the IC vs EC anastomosis, all statistically signicant. As a side benet, the time to atus was shorter, time to

bowel movement shorter, and length of stay shorter as well (all statistically signicant). There was three-quarter less morphine equivalent usage as well. All extraction sites were Pfannenstiel, which is a cosmetic bonus. When setting up the anastomosis, the base of the mesentery is clearly seen, so that twisting the anastomosis is really impossible (I have twisted three EC anastomoses).
Disadvantages ofIC Anastomosis
The only disadvantage I can think of is that the surgeon has to be comfortable with intracorporeal suturing and knot-tying techniques. I would argue that this should be a prerequisite for advanced laparoscopic cases anyway. It does require a change in
220
the thought process of the surgeon used to doing an extracorporeal anastomosis. It’s hard to believe that an IC anastomosis can lead to less morbidity and a nicer cos­metic result unless the surgeon actually sees it.

Technique forLaparoscopic Ileocolic or Right Hemicolectomy
The patient is prepared for surgery according to modern guidelines and positioned supine, unless a known ileosigmoid stula is present, and rst trocar access is obtained. (I was trained to mechanically bowel prep patients having colon resection. I have not seen any deleterious effects of bowel prepping a patient over the 40years of performing colon surgery, and I am familiar with the literature). In my own study quoted above, the only infectious complications were in the extracorporeal patients, and the bowel prep was the same in both groups. Four trocars are placed. The 5mm epigastric port is used for retraction, the midline 5mm for the 30-degree optic, and the surgeon uses the suprapubic 5mm and the left lower quadrant (LLQ) 12mm port to work. A 12mm port is necessary for placement of the stapling instruments. I prefer bipolar energy and a medial to lateral approach to the dissection, but other energy sources are okay, and a lateral to medial approach is ne too. Because I have a 12mm port for the stapling instruments, I use a 10mm bipolar energy instrument. It is possible to use a 5mm bipolar device, but there is too much “play” within the trocar for me with a 5mm instrument.
Identify theAnatomy
The rst step is identifying the anatomy, which includes the ileocolic vessels, the duodenum and the right transverse mesocolon (Fig. 20.1). The assistant uses the epigastric port to grasp the cecum and elevate it. This will put tension on the IC ves­sels. In the vast majority of cases (even obese patients), the second portion of the duodenum will be visible with this maneuver. Depending on the pathology, the anas­tomosis could be as low as the ascending colon or as high as the right mid- transverse colon. If the anastomosis is lower, then the 12mm port is in the LLQ.If the anasto­mosis is going to be into the transverse colon, then the 12mm port is placed in the left upper quadrant (LUQ). This will make it much easier to place the laparoscopic GIA into the ileum and colon.
Intracorporeal Resection
Once the proper anatomy has been identied, traction is placed on the cecum with the epigastric port grasper. (It is easier to use a self-locking grasper here). The peri­toneum over the ileocolic vessels. If this is an inammatory bowel disease (IBD)

patient, the division of the peritoneum is higher on the mesentery. If this is for can­cer, the division is lower in order to encompass a complete lymphadenectomy. I like to use an electrocautery scissor to score the mesentery. It is important to not get into the mesenteric fat (bleeding) doing this scoring of the mesentery. I use 20 watts of current on the electrocautery. The main reason for scoring the mesentery is to allow the energy source that is going to divide the vessels to be placed directly on the ves­sel, not the peritoneum over the vessel. This will decrease the risk of bleeding from use of the energy device. The proper surgical plane between the mesentery and the retroperitoneal fascia is developed here. The ureters and gonadal vessels are below this fascial plane. It is common to see vermiculation of the ureter through the fascia, but I don’t make an effort to actually see the ureter. I do insist on seeing an intact retroperitoneal fascia. If the fascia has been breached (or if this is a secondary ileo­colic resection), the ureter is identied. In my mind, this would be a reason for conversion to open if the ureter (or fascia) could not be identied with certainty. This is an avascular plane between the mesentery and the retroperitoneal fascia. If bleeding occurs here, it should alert the surgeon that the proper plane has not been entered. If in the correct plane, the medial to lateral dissection should be very quick and bloodless. Depending on the pathology, the actual number of blood vessels to be divided can be different, but the principles are the same. There is also an avascular plane just next to the bowel wall. I like to dissect all the tissues off so that I have only bowel wall to transect with the laparoscopic linear cutting stapler. It is important to transect at right angle to the bowel wall (Fig.20.2). This will reduce the incidence of ischemia of the bowel wall. I must say it is encouraging to see a little bleeding from the staple line to conrm good blood supply. Once the proximal and distal bowel segments have been divided, the specimen is placed in the pelvis for extrac­tion later on in the surgery. If this is cancer or there was a stula, the bowel is stored in a nonporous retrieval bag until extracted.
