Laparoscopic colon resection: a case report

A M Cooperman et al. J Laparoendosc Surg. 1991 Aug.

Abstract

The first case of a villous lesion of the colon removed by laparoscopic-guided surgery is reported. Injection of methylene blue into the lesion facilitated its access and exposure via the laparoscope. A very small skin incision allowed delivery onto the abdominal wall for resection and anastomoses.
