Abstract
The only advantage of a laparoscopic-assisted procedure over a minilaparotomy technique was the size of the wound. The minilaparotomy restorative proctocolectomy achieves the same postoperative recovery parameters and has a shorter operative time. This technique is recommended for surgeons less experienced in laparoscopy.
