Description
Summary:Introduction Advances in diagnostic technologies have resulted in an increase in patients with synchronous cancers. We report robotic hemicolectomy and robotic partial nephrectomy via a posterior approach. Case presentation A 72‐year‐old woman presented with synchronous ascending colon and right kidney cancers. We performed simultaneous robotic right hemicolectomy and robotic right partial nephrectomy. The renal tumor was located in a posterior and mid‐lower pole of the kidney, we positioned the ports similar to the retroperitoneal approach and to gain a confronting approach to the tumor. Conclusion Considering preoperative evaluations and intraoperative conditions comprehensively, it is essential to flexibly adapt to the appropriate surgical position and port arrangement to perform the surgery with consideration for oncological principles.
