Values of Laparoscopic Surgery for Benign Gynecological Diseases in Senile Women / 中国微创外科杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To study safety and values of laparoscopic surgery in the management of gynecological diseases in senile women.Methods Clinical data between 27 cases of laparoscope surgery(Laparoscopic Group) and 25 cases of open surgery(Open Group) from January 2001 to December 2006 were retrospectively compared.Results The operation time in the Laparoscopic Group(20.0?7.9) min was significantly shorter than that in the Open Group(44.0?7.2) min(t=-11.419,P=0.000);the blood loss in the Laparoscopic Group(21.9?20.0)ml was distinctively less than that in the Open Group(62.6?29.4)ml(t=-5.875,P=0.000);the postoperative pyrexia in the Laparoscopic Group(3 cases) was significantly less than that in the Open Group(12 cases)(?2=8.606,P=0.001);the time to first flatus in the Laparoscope Group(13.9?2.9)h was significantly shorter than that in the Open Group(23.4?4.3)h(t=-9.404,P=0.000);hospital stay in the Laparoscope Group(7.6?0.9) d was significantly shorter than that in the Open Group(10.2?1.2) d(t=-8.882,P=0.000).Conclusions On the basis of intensive treatment of preoperative complications and perioperative monitoring,laparoscopic surgery is an ideal procedure for benign gynecological diseases in senile women.
