title: [Laparoscopic colonic surgery].
abstract: Eight patients were treated with laparoscopically assisted surgery for colorectal cancer. The technique, results and complications are presented. Conversion to laparotomy was necessary in two patients. There was one postoperative death, which could not be attributed to the operative procedure. It is concluded that laparoscopically assisted surgery will probably be a suitable treatment for some patients with colorectal diseases.
