Purpose
Laparoscopic technique and epidural anesthesia have been proposed to improve postoperative outcome following colorectal cancer surgery. The investigators hypothesize that the inflammatory response is attenuated by laparoscopic surgery and epidural anesthesia compared to traditional open surgery under general anesthesia.

- Plasma levels of several cytokines after colorectal cancer surgery [ Time Frame: within the first two days after surgery ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]We have measured and compared perioperative plasma levels of interleukin-1, interleukin-2, interleukin-6,monocyte chemotactic protein-1, interleukin-8, nitric oxide, C-reactive protein and procalcitonin in our three-group sample.
- Incidence of adverse clinical outcomes between groups [ Time Frame: within 30 days after surgery ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]We have analyzed if there is any significant difference on respiratory, cardiac, renal or infectious postoperative complications between groups

Active Comparator: Control group

Procedure: Laparoscopic technique and thoracic epidural anesthesia
We have compared colorectal cancer surgery under two types of surgical(laparoscopic versus open) and anesthesia (thoracic epidural versus general) techniques

Detailed Description:
Patients scheduled for open colorectal cancer surgery were randomly allocated to receive general anesthesia (CON group, n=22) or general anesthesia with thoracic epidural anesthesia (EPI group, n=21). Patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery (LAP group, n=20) composed the third arm of the study. Measurement of perioperative changes in several hormones and cytokines were blinded to group assignment.
Primary outcome: Compare simultaneously two types of surgical and anesthesia techniques for colorectal cancer surgery and measure to what extent the stress response is lessened.
