Plain Language Summary

Simplified for easier understanding

This study compares two surgical approaches for removing colon cancer in the right side of the colon: one where the removed tissue comes out through a small cut in the rectum (natural opening), versus the traditional method using an abdominal incision. The goal is to see if the newer approach is equally safe and leads to faster recovery. **You may be eligible if...** - You have a confirmed diagnosis of colon cancer - Imaging shows cancer is T1–T3 stage (not spread beyond the colon wall) - Your tumor is in the cecum, ascending colon, or hepatic flexure (right side) - Your tumor is 5 cm or smaller - Your BMI is 30 or below **You may NOT be eligible if...** - You have a complete bowel obstruction - You have active hepatitis or significant nerve damage - You have serious heart disease, recent heart attack, or serious psychiatric or neurological conditions - You are pregnant Talk to your doctor to see if this trial is right for you.
