Conventional laparoscopic-assisted right hemicolectomy requires a small abdominal incision to extract the specimen, which becomes an important source of postoperative complications and impairs perioperative experience. Transvaginal natural orifice specimen extraction surgery (NOSES VIIIA) avoids this small incision by extracting the specimen through the vagina. Here we describe the design of a multicenter, open-label, parallel, noninferior, phase III randomized controlled trial (NCT05495048). The aim of this study is to confirm that the NOSES VIIIA procedure is not inferior to small-incision assisted right hemicolectomy in long-term oncological efficacy...
