Abstract
Laparoscopic surgery currently represents the standard approach in colorectal cancer. However, it requires general anesthesia and pneumoperitoneum, which may be contraindicated in patients with impaired lung function. We hereby present a case of tailored minimally invasive surgery for an ascending colon cancer in a patient with Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia, situs inversus totalis, and end-stage lung disease. The surgery was conducted through a 13 cm left transverse incision under locoregional anesthesia, and the patient made an uneventful recovery despite her pre-existing comorbidities. This case proves the importance of tailored surgical and anesthesiologic management to provide good oncological outcomes to all cancer patients.
