Abstract
For optimal mesenteric-based colorectal surgery, the surgeon must have mechanisms that ensure unimpeded mesenteric access, reliable hemostatic mobilization, and mesenterectomy. Instruments that are currently available enable the surgeon achieve the these goals, but there is considerable room for improvement at multiple levels. Improved mesenteric access, more efficient peritonotomy, mesofascial access, and separation are clinical needs that should be addressed in future biodesign.
