Overview

Surgery demonstrates successful en bloc lymph node resection in colorectal cancer, indicating reduced recurrence and fewer complications.

Key Points

  • To evaluate a modified technique for para-aortic lymph node dissection in colorectal cancer patients.
  • Introduced a 'lawn-mowing' technique for en bloc lymph node removal.
  • Identified anatomical boundaries prior to dissection to improve outcomes.
  • Performed surgery on a case with positive lymph nodes and followed up for nine months.
  • Achieved successful en bloc lymph node resection with minimal blood loss.
  • Histopathological exam showed 2 positive out of 23 lymph nodes.
  • No recurrence was reported at nine-month follow-up.
