RESUMO
Objective To investigate the safety,feasibility and effectivity of laparoscopic left hemihepatectomy for left hepatolithiasis.Methods From Jan.2005 to Dec.2013,36 patients with left hepatolithiasis underwent laparoscopic left hemihepatectomy (group LH),in comparison with 39 other patients who underwent conventional open left hemihepatectomy (group OH).The blood supply to left liver was dissected and cut off first.The liver parenchyma was transected and the left hepatic vein was dissected and clamped.Intraoperative choledochoscopy was carried out through the stump of left bile duct,laparoscopic choledocholithotomy and T-tube drainage were carried out when stones were found in the common or right bile duct.Blood loss,rate of residual stone,complication rate between the two groups were compared.Results The success rate of operation was 100％.Compared with group OH,group LH had shorter postoperative hospitalization,less incision infection and fewer analgesia needed(t =3.75,x2 =4.11,x2 =22.12,P ＜0.05).There was no statistical difference for blood loss,rate of transfusion,and postoperative complications such as bile leakage,pleural effusion,ascites,residual stones (t =0.66,x2 =0.70,x2 =0.01,x2 =0.52,x2 =0.01,x2 =0.28,x2 =0.01,P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions Laparoscopic left hemihepatectomy is safe,feasible,and effective for hepatolithiasis of the left liver lobe.
RESUMO
Objective To evaluate the feasibility,safety,post-operative short and long-term outcomes of laparoscopic-assisted D2 radical distal gastrectomy in treating advanced gastric carcinoma without serosal invasion.Method From May 2007 to May 2013,54 cases of advanced gastric antral cancer without serosal invasion underwent laparoscopic-assisted D2 radical distal gastrectomy (laparoscopic group),54 demographically and pathologically-matched cases undergoing open surgery served as control.The surgical risk,post-operative recovery and follow-up results were compared.Result Surgery was successful in all patients.The mean operation time in laparoscopic group and open group was (168 ± 31) mins and (157 ±20) min respectively,the difference was significant (t =2.237,P =0.027) ; Intra-operative blood loss was (151 ± 56) ml and (213 ± 86) ml (t =4.45,P =0) ; Post-operative intestinal function recovery time was (2.7 ± 0.7) d and (3.4 ± 0.5) d (t =5.4,P =0) ; Lymph node dissection number was (26.4 ± 4.2) and (24.8 ±5.2) (t =1.769,P=0.08).Post-operative complication rate was 4％ and 11％ (P =0.142).There was no perioperative mortality in either group.Post-operative pathological stage of Ⅰ B,Ⅱ A,Ⅱ B,ⅢA was 8,17,24,5 cases in laparoscopic group and 9,14,23,8 cases in open surgery group.108 cases were followed up from 7 to 79 months.In laparoscopic group,8 cases had local recurrence or distal mestastasis,and 4 cases died from tumor; In open group,9 cases had local recurrence or distal mestastasis,and 6 cases died from tumor.Conclusions Laparoscopic-assisted D2 radical distal gastrectomy in treating advanced gastric cancer without serosal invasion is feasible,safe and advantageous in minimal invasion and rapid recovery,with good short and long-term outcomes.
