Abstract
The operations discussed in this chapter have been described individually and in detail elsewhere. This chapter focuses on a common feature of these procedures, the technique of dissection within the mesentery (or mesocolon) and exposure of the mesenteric (or mesocolic) branches, and emphasizes its surgical importance as a unifying feature of various procedures.
