Excerpt

Complete mesocolic excision CME) is a surgical technique in colonic malignancies and was first introduced in 2009 by Hohenberger. The goal of CME was to remove the afflicted colon and its accessory lymphovascular supply by preserving the visceral peritoneum. After introduction of this technique, which was inspired by total mesorectal excision in rectal cancer surgery, oncologic results improved [1]. The extent of lymph node dissection in general has become a topic of interest for many colorectal surgeons, since the number of retrieved lymph nodes has significant influence on oncological outcome [2, 3]. …
