3D virtual modelling enhances safety in laparoscopic colon surgery

Validation of 3D virtual modelling (3DVM) demonstrated a 96% accuracy for identifying arteriovenous variations in laparoscopic complete mesocolic excision with central vascular ligation (CMECVL) among 26 patients. Compared to 49 standard mesocolic excision controls, CMECVL showed no intraoperative complications and similar 30-day morbidity rates, although intraoperative times were longer initially. Aimed at improving surgical safety, 90% of surveyed stakeholders endorsed the utility of 3DVM, signifying its value in the surgical workflow.
