Surgery plays a crucial role in the treatment of colon cancer, serving as a primary intervention in the pursuit of effectively removing the tumor. It is important to explore the various surgical approaches available for colon cancer treatment, highlighting their advantages and challenges. By addressing different surgical techniques, the aim is to provide a comprehensive overview of the options available to surgeons, considering aspects such as invasiveness, postoperative recovery, and long-term efficacy. The choice of surgical approach in colon cancer is a complex decision, involving the consideration of various factors such as tumor location, disease stage, and the overall condition of the patient. In this context, laparoscopic and traditional approaches will be evaluated, along with their specific indications, comparing the outcomes of clinical endpoints. Understanding the nuances of each technique is essential to optimize surgical therapy and improve the prognosis of patients affected by this neoplasia. Furthermore, the assessment of outcomes associated with colon cancer surgery, examining aspects such as survival rates, recurrence, and postoperative quality of life, is of utmost importance for decision-making. The critical analysis of these outcomes will allow for a deeper evaluation of the implications of each surgical approach, contributing to informed decision-making by healthcare professionals. In this way, the goal is to provide a solid knowledge base that can guide clinical practice and enhance therapeutic outcomes for patients with colon cancer undergoing surgical intervention. Ultimately, this article aims to consolidate updated information on surgical approaches in the context of colon cancer, presenting a critical review of the available scientific literature. By doing so, we hope to contribute to the continuous development of oncological surgical practice, promoting the effectiveness of procedures and improving the quality of life for patients facing this challenging condition.
