Brief summary
The primary aim of this study is \- to determine the difference of survival outcome (3-year overall survival, 3y OS) between after minilaparotomy and after laparoscopy.. Other aims include to determine the data below when minilaparotomy and laparoscopy are compared with each other. * 3-year disease free survival, 3y DFS * 5-year overall survival, 5y OS * 5-year disease free survival, 5y DFS * Local recurrence rate, LRR * Postoperative complications Incidence and mortality at 30 days
Interventions
According to the cancer location, a 7 cm incision is made in specific area of the patient's abdomen. The whole procedure of operation will be finished within this incision. If the incision must be lengthen due to the surgical demand, the failure of the minilaparotomy is determined.
This is one of the routine procedures used for colorectal cancer resection.
