RESUMO
Objective To evaluate the safety and efficacy of retroperitoneal laparoscopic resec-tion and reconstructive surgeries in urology. Methods Retroperitoneal laparoseopic resection and re-constructive surgeries were performed on 245 patients including 17 cases of adrenalectomies, 32 cases of radical nephrectomies, 12 cases of partial nephrectomies, 53 cases of nephrectomies, 5 cases of nephroureterectomies, 6 cases of unroofing of peripelvie renal cysts, 46 cases of unroofing of renal cysts, 4 cases of unroofing of polyeystic kidneys, 12 cases of pyeloplasties, 58 cases of ureterolithoto-roles. Results All 245 surgeries were successfully completed. The mean operation time was 59 (20-250) min and the estimated blood loss was 5-300 ml with no transfusion. There was no serious complication during perioperative period. Conclusion Retroperitoneal laparoscopic resection and re-conatruetive surgery in urology is safe and effective with the advantages of minimal invasion, quick re-covery and few complications.
