                    [Title] => Laparoscopic colorectal surgery
                    [Summary] => Few, if any, major surgical trials have caused as much of a stir as the Clinical Outcomes of Surgical Therapy (COST) study. The release of the long-awaited results in May marked the beginning of a new, minimally invasive age in colon cancer treatment. 


The study showed conclusively that, in experienced hands, laparoscopic colectomy offers the same oncologic outcomes as the open procedure – with shorter hospital stays and less postoperative pain. But the publication triggered as many questions as it answered about the future of colon cancer surgery.
