AIM: The ideal level of ligation of the inferior mesenteric artery (IMA) during resection for colorectal cancer is still controversial. The aim of this study was to demonstrate the real advantages and, above all, the adequacy of oncological staging after a low ligation of the IMA with additional LN retrieval in patients undergoing surgery for colorectal cancer.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: Between January 2013 and December 2020, 157 patients who underwent curative resection of a primary colorectal tumor were retrospectively included: 64 patients underwent high ligation of the IMA and 93 patients underwent low ligation of the IMA with additional LN retrieval. Results - Mean number of lymphnodes harvested (the median number of harvested nodes was 16.2 in "high ligation" group vs 15.4 in "low ligation" group), operation time (272 minutes vs 293 minutes), intraoperative blood loss (40 cc vs 53 cc) and recovery time (median postoperative hospitalization was 6.4 days in both groups) were not significantly different between the groups.
DISCUSSION: High ligation of the IMA preserves an adequate length of the colon to perform a successful anastomosis and facilitates apical LN dissection. However, it may be associated with an increased risk of anastomotic leakage. Low ligation of the IMA is less invasive and it is associated with a better preservation of genitourinary function and, futhermore, with an accurate oncological clearance.
CONCLUSION: Low ligation of the IMA with additional LN retrieval might be an oncologically safe and less invasive procedure in the surgical management of patients with colorectal cancer.
