Abstract
To analyze immediate outcomes of 286 laparoscopic and robot-assisted interventions on the colon and rectum. There were 256 (89.51%) laparoscopic and 30 (10.49%) robot-assisted procedures. 233 (81.46%) operations were performed for rectum and colon cancer. Postoperative complications after colon cancer surgery were revealed in 11.11%, including anastomosis failure in 2.08% of cases. Postoperative complications after rectal cancer surgery occurred in 32.58% of cases including anastomosis failure after anterior rectectomy in 11.67%. Robot-assisted surgery is not advisable for colon diseases according to price-effectiveness ratio due to available laparoscopic approach. Preventive intestinal stoma in endoscopic low and ultra-low anterior rectal resection allows you to avoid clinically significant inconsistency of colorectal anastomosis. Laparoscopic procedure should be performed with Contour stitching-cutting device in low and ultra-low anterior rectal resection if there is technical complexity of one-stage rectum intersection below the tumor. Robot-assisted operations for rectal cancer have advantages due to three-dimensional imaging and better orientation, greater freedom of manipulation in confined spaces, and simplicity of lymphadenectomy.
