Fig. 5From: A novel hand-assisted laparoscopic versus conventional laparoscopic right hemicolectomy for right colon cancer: study protocol for a randomized controlled trialTrocar positions and surgical procedure for the control intervention group. a Trocar positions for LAP-CME and cLAP groups. Trocar A = 10 mm, Trocars B–D = 12 mm, Trocar E = 5 mm. b The transverse is divided under laparoscopy in the LAP-CME group. c The distal ileum is divided under laparoscopy in the cLAP group. d The terminal of the SMV is identified under laparoscopy and D3 lymphadenectomy is performed along the SMV in the cLAP groupBack to article page
