[Comparative evaluation of the surgical approaches in cancer of the right and left halves of the large intestine].

The most common approaches to the right and left halves of the colon were compared in the experiment on 193 human cadavers and in the clinic (114 cases). The evaluation of the approaches was based on the studies of spatial interrelations in the surgical wound following the A. Yu. Sozon-Yaroschevich method. On the grounds of comparative experimental and clinical findings the G. D. Vilyavin's methods of right- and left-side incisions (inferior-medial laparotomy with the prolongation of the incision to the cartilage of the tenth rib) are accepted as the best in hemicolectomy.
