Key Words	Previous abdominal surgery; Laparoscopic surgery; Colorectal surgery; Previous abdominal surgery; Laparoscopy
Core Tip	So far, there is no substantial evidence in the literature to recommend laparoscopic surgery instead of laparotomy for patients previously submitted to abdominal surgery, concerning short-term benefits, such as conversion rates and morbidity. This review, although without a meta-analysis, brings new light into this matter.
