Single-incision laparoscopic right hemicolectomy 66.7%, left hemicolectomy 8.3%, sigmoidectomy 25.0%. TNM classification: the second stage 25.0%, the third stage 75.0% without the first and forth stage. Elevation of CEA serum level: Preoperative 66.7%, postoperative of three months 28.6%. Average operative duration 165.3 ± 45.7 minutes, average single-incision 5.2 ± 2.2 cm and without other complications.
