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.
