The aim is to assess how minimally invasive colectomy impacts postoperative morbidity in patients with high Naples prognostic scores.
Comparison of postoperative morbidity after standard and minimally invasive colectomy procedures.
Analysis of outcomes based on Naples prognostic scores.
Evaluation of short-term recovery metrics.
Patients undergoing minimally invasive colectomy experienced lower postoperative morbidity compared to those with a high Naples prognostic score after open colectomy.
Short-term outcomes were significantly improved in the minimally invasive group compared to the traditional method.
Abstract
A high NPS led to postoperative morbidity after OC, but not after MIC. MIC may improve short-term outcomes, even in patients with a low NPS.
