Author | Year | Method | Advantage | Disadvantage | Into practice | Kinds of laparoscopic colorectal surgery mentioned in article |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Cabot et al. [5] | 2010 | Using wound protector closure in an open fashion | Easy; time saving | May not produce safe and complete closure so may increase the risk of symptomatic internal herniation | Not in the article | Laparoscopic Right Colectomy |
Sica et al. [14] | 2021 | Use of polymer ligating clips every 1–2 cm along the edges of the mesentery | Extremely resistant and easy to apply and remove | May result in adhesions due to foreign body reaction or migration | Yes | Laparoscopic Right Colectomy |
Clapp et al. [13] | 2020 | Barbed suture | Time saving | Hard to remove; may cause intestinal tears or vascular injury | Yes | Laparoscopic Surgery |
Anvari et al. [8] | 2009 | Non-absorbable suture or Ligasure™ device or staples | May lower incidence of internal hernias | In some particular situations using Ligasure™ device or staples may not be effective | Only non-absorbable sutures recommended | Laparoscopic Left Colectomy |
