Efficacy of Laparoscopic Miles Surgery at different periods / 中国微创外科杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of laparoscopic Miles surgery at differented periods.Methods Radical excision(Miles) was performed under a laparoscope on 33 patients from January 2002 to August 2002(group 1),and then on 34 cases from July 2006 to May 2007(group 2) in our hospital.Clinicopathological and follow-up data of the two groups were collected and analyzed.Results No significant difference was found in blood loss(50-200 ml vs 40-210 ml,Z=1.477,P=0.787),number of resected lymph nodes(both 3-5,Z=-0.089,P=0.233),gas expel(in 1-3 days after the surgery vs 1-4 days,Z=-1.622,P=0.574),and postoperative hospital stay(4-9 days vs 5-9 days,Z=-1.834,P=0.346) between the two groups.However,the patients in group 1 had significantly longer operation time and higher medical cost than group 2(175-210 min vs 120-150 min,Z=4.238,P=0.026;23400-27500 yuan vs 19863-22744 yuan,Z=5.283,P=0.003).Conclusion After 4-year development,the operation time and cost of laparoscopic Miles surgery has been decreased.
