Short-term effect of minimally invasive treatment for gastric stromal tumors / 中国内镜杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To compare the short-term effect of laparoscopic surgery with open surgery for gastrointesti﹣nal stromal tumor. Methods 26 patients, whose tumor were localized and the pathologic diagnosis were gastrointesti﹣nal stromal tumor in stomach after surgery, were randomly divided into laparoscopic surgery group (n=12) and open surgery group (n= 14). The age and gender level, disease duration, clinical symptom, tumor location, and the lesion diameter were similar between the two groups (P> 0.05). Surgery achievement, intraoperative blood loss, operative time, postoperative hospital stay, postoperative flatus time, postoperative liquid time, and incidence rates of postoper﹣ative complications were compared between the two groups. Results All the patients get successful R0 resection. The volume of intraoperative blood loss, operative time, postoperative hospital stay, postoperative flatus time, and postop﹣erative liquid time in laparoscopic surgery group were lower than open surgery group (P 0.05). Conclusion Compared with open surgery, the short-term effect of laparoscopic surgery were better for patients whose gastrointestinal stromal tumor in stomach were localized, and it is worth of promoting clinical application.
