Lapascopic abdominoperineal resection in the treatment of rectal carcinoma-long-term results of 9 cases / 中国微创外科杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To analyze perioperative process, oncologic state and prognosis of patients with rectal carcinoma treated by lapascopic abdominoperineal resection. Methods 9 cases of rectal carcinoma treated by lapascopic abdominoperineal resection were reviewed retrospectively from December 1993 to February 1996. Results The median age was 50y(30y～67y), median follow-up time 80 months(40m～90m) and median operative time 6h (4 5h～7 5h). 9 cases were operated on by standard radical operation, including abdominal procedures under laparoscope in 8 cases and under the help of mini-incision in 1 case.Complications occurred in 4 cases, including subcutaneous emphysema and urine detention, iliac vein injury, deep vein thrombosis and part mucous necrosis, and perineal wound infection in 1 case respectively. The median number of lymph nodes in the specimen was 13(4～25). 6 patients survived and 3 ones died with the survival rate at 5-year being 77.8%. Conclusions Lapascopic abdominoperineal resection in the treatment of rectal carcinoma is feasible, and it can meet the tumor resection requirements of open radical operation.
