Three-dimensional versus two-dimensional laparoscopic right colectomy. A systematic review and meta-analysis
BACKGROUND:
Three-dimensional (3D) vision technology has recently been validated for the improvement of surgical skills in a simulated setting. Clinical studies on specific operations have been published in the field of general, urologic, and gynecologic laparoscopic surgery. We hypothesized that 3D vision laparoscopic right colectomy has better intra and short-term postoperative outcomes than two-dimensional (2D) vision.
AIM:
The outcomes of this review and meta-analysis were to compare the 3D vision and the 2D vision laparoscopic right colectomy.
METHODS:
