Recent several important new studies1-3 have demonstrated the benefits and safety of laparoscopic colorectal surgery, making it now the preferred approach in the surgical management of many colorectal diseases all over World. The technique of laparoscopic colectomy has a long learning curve because of the advanced laparoscopic skills it entails.
