Abstract
In laparoscopic surgery (LS) for colorectal cancer (CRC), the relationship between intraoperative end-tidal carbon dioxide concentration (EtCO2) and surgery-related complications remains unexplored. This study assessed the impact of intraoperative EtCO2 on postoperative complications in LS for CRC.In total, 909 patients who underwent LS for CRC were enrolled.
