Core Tip	This study compares the efficacy of two-port with that of four-port laparoscopic radical resection of colorectal cancer. The two-port approach shows clinical superiority, with reduced total incision length, quicker postoperative recovery, fewer total complications, and better gastrointestinal/humoral immune functions. The results can provide better surgical treatment options for patients with colorectal cancer.
