PG - 2291-2293 AB - BACKGROUND: Laparoscopic transverse colectomy is technically difficult. In mini-laparotomy surgery, colectomy for midtransverse colon cancer can easily be performed, but exact D2 lymph node dissection is very difficult for a variety of vessels in the transverse colon. Using 3D-CT imaging, we present a case of D2 lymph node dissection where mini-laparotomy transverse colectomy was performedby a small incision similar to that usedin laparoscopic surgery. METHOD: The patient was a 60-yearoldwoman with early transverse colon cancer, which was locatedin the mid-transverse colon. Surgical treatment was plannedfor pT1b(1.5mm)andpVM1 in pathological findings after EMR. Using CT colonography(CTC), the location of the primary tumor was identified. Using simulation CTC(sCTC), composedof CTC and 3D imaging of the arteries andveins, the dominant artery was identified and D2 lymph node dissection was simulated. In addition, body surface 3D imaging and permeable surface 3D imaging of the abdominal trunk were performed. Using body surface 3D-sCTC, composedof sCTC and body surface 3D imaging, the minimum incision to enable D2 lymph node dissection was simulated. RESULT: Using sCTC, it was identified that the dominant artery was the right branch of the middle colic artery(MCA Rt)andthe accompanying vein was branchedfrom the gastrocolic trunk(GCT). D2 lymph node dissection to separate the branching root of MCA Rt and the accompanying vein was simulated. Next, surgical incision was simulated using body surface 3D-sCTC. Because the branching roots of MCA Rt andGCT were locatedabout 5 cm cranial from the upper rim of the navel, a 7 cm upper abdominal midline incision was designed in addition to a 2 cm umbilical incision. Mini-laparotomy transverse colectomy with a 7 cm incision was performedin accordance with the simulation. The operation time was 2 hours and5 1 minutes, andbloodloss was due to occult bleeding. The patient was discharged 7 days after surgery without complications, and the final diagnosis was pT1bN0M0, StageⅠwith no recurrence for 4 years and2 months after surgery. The cranial incision from the upper rim of the navel has shrank about 3 cm, and the umbilical incision is not noticeable. CONCLUSION: D2 lymph node dissection of minilaparotomy transverse colectomy can be a treatment option for early transverse colon cancer through using body surface 3DsCTC.
