Large comparative studies and multiple prospective randomized controlled trials (RCTs) have reported short-term and long-term equivalence of open surgical and laparoscopic treatment for colon cancer, leading to wide acceptance of laparoscopic colon cancer resection [2]. Laparoscopic resection is safe and reliable for low colorectal cancer, increasing the chance of recovery of anal function [3]. However, serious postoperative complications can occur, such as mesenteric venous thrombosis (MVT). This refers to acute, subacute, or chronic thrombosis of the superior mesenteric vein or branch. It is considered a rare and insidious disease with a high mortality rate, and may present with acute abdominal pain or asymptomatic incidental findings on abdominal imaging.
