Laparoscopic IIeocecus-Sparing Right Hemicolectomy for Cancer of the Hepatic Flexure and Proximal Transverse Colon

The ileocecal artery(ICA) is skeletonized. The colic branch of ICA is divided and ligated. Preserve anterior cecal artery, posterior cecal artery and ileocecal branch of ICA. Divide and ligate the right colic artery(RCA) and middle colic artery(MCA) at their roots. Dissect the lymph nodes surrounding the ICA, RCA and MCA accordingly. Head-to-Head colocolic anastomois is done, with circular stapler via making an opening at the bottom of cecum.
