Abstract

In July 2008, a 40-year-old man presented to his local physician with diffuse abdominal pain and severe abdominal distension. Impending bowel rupture due to colonic obstruction was strongly suspected. Complete obstruction of the distal sigmoid colon by a tumor was diagnosed, and emergency surgery was performed. A sigmoid colon loop colostomy was created within the range of subsequent resection to relieve the obstruction. After his general condition had improved and the risks were assessed, curative resection including removal of the stoma was performed by hybrid 2-port hand-assisted laparoscopic surgery. The tumor showed invasion of the serosa without lymph node metastasis, and its pathological diagnosis was stage II. Postoperatively, mild wound infection occurred at the hand access site (stoma), but it resolved with conservative treatment, and the patient was discharged on postoperative day 13. This case is reported here because of the good results.
