Table 1 Table of studies involving emergent laparoscopic colorectal surgery and inflammatory bowel disease

Ref.	Type of study	Number of LCS patients	Institution	Main outcome
Nash et al[27]	Comparative	36	Single	No difference in morbidity;
				Longer operating time in LCS;
				Shorter hospital stay

Marceau et al[26]	Comparative	40	Single-centre	Similar operating time;
				Hospital stay similar;
				Morbidity similar
Fowkes et al[21]	Comparative	22	Single centre	Shorter hospital stay;
				Similar morbidity
Seshadri et al[28]	Comparative	37	Single-centre	Longer operating time in LCS;
				No differences in complications;
				Less post-op morbidity;
				Shorter hospital stay
Watanabe et al[29]	Comparative	30	Single-centre	Longer operating time in LCS;
				Fewer post-op complications in LCS;
				Faster gut recovery in LCS
