Abstract
Cooperative laparoscopic or robotic-endoscopic surgery has emerged as a promising approach for the treatment of early-stage colorectal cancers that are difficult to treat with endoscopic techniques alone. Cooperative surgery allows organ and function preservation by complementing the advantages of each modality, providing minimally invasive, precise and personalized treatment options. Laparoscopic-endoscopic cooperative surgery includes laparoscopic-assisted endoscopic resection, combined laparoscopic-endoscopic full-thickness resection, endoscopic-assisted laparoscopic wedge resection, endoscopic-assisted laparoscopic segmental resection, and laparoscopic-endoscopic cooperative surgery with sentinel lymph node dissection. Nearly three decades of clinical research and practice have demonstrated the safety and efficacy of laparoscopic and endoscopic cooperative surgery in the treatment of colorectal tumors. With the progress of the minimally invasive concept, the development of minimally invasive technology and the innovation of minimally invasive equipment, laparoscopy and endoscopy cooperative surgery is expected to have a proper place in the treatment of colorectal tumors.
