MBP vs No MBP in Laparoscopic Right Hemicolectomy
Summary
A randomized controlled trial (NCT07546565) registered at University Medical Center Ho Chi Minh City will compare mechanical bowel preparation (MBP) versus no MBP in patients undergoing laparoscopic right hemicolectomy with intracorporeal anastomosis for colon cancer. The trial will enroll eligible patients randomly assigned to either group and measure surgical site infection rates within 30 days as the primary outcome, alongside secondary outcomes including anastomotic leakage, postoperative ileus, operative time, and length of hospital stay. Findings aim to clarify whether MBP reduces postoperative infections in this specific surgical context.

What changed
This entry registers a new randomized controlled trial (NCT07546565) on ClinicalTrials.gov, a trial registry operated by the NIH. The trial investigates mechanical bowel preparation (MBP) in laparoscopic right hemicolectomy with intracorporeal anastomosis for colon cancer, randomizing patients to MBP or no MBP groups. Primary outcome is 30-day surgical site infection rate; secondary outcomes include anastomotic leakage, postoperative ileus, and recovery parameters.
Healthcare institutions conducting colorectal surgery research may reference this trial when evaluating perioperative protocols. Clinical investigators should note the trial location (Vietnam) and study design when assessing generalizability to their own populations. The trial represents an evidence-generation activity rather than a regulatory or compliance action.

Mechanical Bowel Preparation in Laparoscopic Right Hemicolectomy With Intracorporeal Anastomosis
N/A NCT07546565 Kind: NA Apr 22, 2026
Abstract
This study is a randomized controlled trial conducted at University Medical Center Ho Chi Minh City to evaluate the role of mechanical bowel preparation (MBP) in patients undergoing laparoscopic right hemicolectomy with totally intracorporeal anastomosis for colon cancer.
Mechanical bowel preparation is commonly used before colorectal surgery to reduce bowel contents and potentially decrease the risk of postoperative infections. However, its benefit remains controversial, particularly in intracorporeal anastomosis, where intra-abdominal contamination may influence surgical outcomes.
In this study, eligible patients will be randomly assigned to one of two groups: with or without mechanical bowel preparation before surgery. The study aims to compare intraoperative events, postoperative complications, and recovery outcomes between the two groups.
The primary outcome is the rate of surgical site infection (SSI) within 30 days after surgery. Secondary outcomes include intraoperative fecal contamination, anastomotic leakage, postoperative ileus, operative time, and recovery parameters such as time to first bowel movement and length of hospital stay.
The findings of this study are expected to clarify the role of mechanical bowel preparation in reducing postoperative infections and improving surgical outcomes in patients undergoing laparoscopic right hemicolectomy.
Conditions: Colon Cancer
Interventions: Mechanical Bowel Preparation, No mechanical bowel preparation
