Bowel Cancer Surgery Re-Evolves *** Scar-Free Surgery Possible

Don't miss out on colorectal cancer treatment for fear of scarring!

In recent years, bowel cancer surgery has evolved from the traditional way of opening a large knife to laparoscopic surgery, and in the future, even through the new da Vinci incision robotic surgery, so that the operation to achieve the goal of almost no scar.

Wang Huiming, deputy director of the Department of Surgery and attending surgeon of colorectal surgery at China Medical University Hospital, recently successfully treated a 46-year-old Mr. Wu, who was diagnosed with sigmoid colon cancer six months ago with liver metastasis, and couldn't be resected at the same time. He then spent 3 months on chemotherapy and targeted therapy, and only after the liver cancer cells had almost disappeared and conditions permitted, did he undergo a single-incision laparoscopic surgery 2 months ago to remove a 4-centimeter large intestinal tumor, which resulted in a small wound and a quick recovery, and he was able to get out of bed the day after the surgery and recovered.

The pursuit of a wound that leaves no trace! Bowel cancer surgery continues to evolve

In the past, the removal of intestinal tumors need to open the bowel, large wounds, pain and long repair period, often become the excuse for colorectal cancer patients to refuse treatment, but in recent years bowel cancer surgery continues to evolve, from multi-hole laparoscopic surgery to single-incision laparoscopic surgery, and in the future, after the introduction of the Xi type of da Vinci incision robotic surgery. With the introduction of the Xi type da Vinci Incision Robotic Surgery in the future, there is no need to create an incision in the abdominal skin, and the tumor can be removed through the body's natural holes of *** access, eliminating the need for surgical marks. This is a great way to avoid leaving a surgical mark. Patients with benign tumors or early-stage cancers will be the biggest beneficiaries of the surgical evolution, and once people are diagnosed with bowel cancer, they should have the courage to treat it, and don't delay the removal of bowel tumors because of their love for beauty.

Dr. Wang Hui-ming said that single-incision laparoscopic resection surgery requires special skills and is much more difficult than porous laparoscopy, but the medical community is willing to bet on a breakthrough therapy, although the current single-incision laparoscopic surgery is still incised, but because of the area is too small, it has been to the point of almost no trace.

In the future, a new generation of da Vinci robotic arm to join the camp, by *** direct access to deal with the tumor, no longer create incisions, the physiological impact on the patient will be reduced to a lower level, even if wearing a bikini, can not be seen ever opened the knife. However, Dr. Wang Hui-ming pointed out that a new generation of da Vinci incision robotic bowel cancer surgery is still experimental in the United States, the fastest need to wait 2 years before the introduction of Taiwan.
