PY - 2024 T2 - Handbook of Minimally Invasive Colorectal Surgery AB - Right hemicolectomy involves the removal of 10 cm of the terminal ileum, cecum, ascending colon, and the proximal transverse colon. Right hemicolectomy is indicated for malignant lesions involving the right colon, including the hepatic flexure and the proximal transverse colon. In addition, it is indicated in cases of unresectable polyps, cecal diverticulitis, volvulus, and Crohn’s disease. Right hemicolectomy implies division of the ileocolic, right colic, and right branch of the middle colic vessels. This can be achieved laparoscopically, laparoscopic assisted, through the open approach, or robotically.
