The Influence of Type of Anesthesia on Postoperative Pain

Summary

The investigators designed a multi-center prospective randomized controlled trial to study the influence of the type of anesthesia on postoperative pain after laparoscopic colorectal cancer surgery. Half of the participants will be anesthetized with propofol and remifentanil, while the other half will be anesthetized with sevoflurane and remifentanil during the surgery. The investigators will measure opioid consumption and pain score in the acute postoperative phase.
