Principles of surgical technique in the treatment of carcinoma of the large bowel

M L Corman. World J Surg. 1991 Sep-Oct.

Abstract

The principles of surgical technique for the operative management of colon cancer are described. With the background of the evolution of anastomotic alternatives, the methods for reestablishing intestinal continuity and the approach to the treatment of complicated presentations of colonic cancer are reviewed. While one may construe this paper to have a certain author bias, I have tried to present diverse options where pertinent, but there should be little question as to where my opinion lies.
