[Laparoscopic colon surgery].
Such a wealth of experience with the laparoscopic surgery has since been gained in specialized centers that laparoscopic colon surgery can now be recommended for the treatment of both benign and malignant diseases of the large bowel and rectum. Faster postoperative recovery, a shorter hospital stay and the presumably superior oncological results are not only patient-friendly, but also pass muster in terms of economics. In the future, there will be a greater concentration of such interventions in specialized centers, since only in such facilities can the required quality and further advances be expected.
