Core Tip	In specialised units, complete mesocolic excision is shown to improve pathological parameters as well as improve overall survival, disease free survival and reduce local recurrence. Yet many western units have not taken up the technique. This article explores reasons for and against complete mesocolic excision (CME) as well as D3 lymphadenectomy and the feasibility of laparoscopic CME.
