Purpose
The purpose of this study is to determine whether a epidural analgesia versus patient controlled analgesia reduces the medical recovery in patients undergoing elective laparoscopic colon surgery.

- medical recovery (defined as pain sufficient controlled by oral analgesia, fully mobile patients or at least as mobile as at admission and tolerance of the patient of oral food intake (more than 2/3 of daily meal)) [ Time Frame: 30 days ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
- complication rate, peridural analgesia failure rate, patient comfort [ Time Frame: 30 days ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]

| Arms | Assigned Interventions |
|---|---|
|
A
Epidural Analgesia (Th 8-9)
|
Procedure: Epidural analgesia
Thoracic epidural analgesia until day 2

B
Patient controlled analgesia (morphine-based)
|
Procedure: Patient controlled analgesia
Patient controlled analgesia (morphine-based)

Detailed Description:
Allocation by individual random number generated by a computer program to either EDA or PCA for 48h after laparoscopic colonic surgery.
Short, both groups are treated according to a recent Fast track protocol. Group A will preoperatively receive a mid thoracic EDA (th 8-9; naropine 0,1%) while group B will receive a PCA (morphine) postoperatively. Both EDA and PCA are removed the afternoon at day 2. Patients with a non-functioning EDA within the first 24h will be crossed over to the PCA group.
