AbstractThere are disparate variables available to appraise the quality of the laparoscopic colorectal surgery. Currently available data suggest that laparoscopic colectomy can be completed safely in most cases. It is feasible and offers patient-related benefits similar to those described for other laparoscopic procedures. The framework, within which the quality of laparoscopic colon and rectum surgery is appraised and judged, is discussed with an emphasis on diverse outcomes used to measure quality.
