Area of Science:

Gastroenterology
Surgical Oncology
Minimally Invasive Surgery

Background:

Laparoscopic surgery is increasingly utilized for small bowel resections.
Indications include obstruction from intussusception, diverticula, and tumors.

Observation:

A case of jejunal carcinoma was diagnosed pre-operatively.
The patient underwent a laparoscopy-assisted resection.

Findings:

The laparoscopy-assisted technique was successfully applied for the jejunal carcinoma resection.
This demonstrates the feasibility of minimally invasive approaches for malignant small bowel tumors.

Implications:

Laparoscopic surgery offers a viable option for treating small bowel cancers.
