Analysis of therapeutic effect of laparoscopic tumor resection combined with aspiration in the treatment of central renal angiomyolipoma / 中华泌尿外科杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the clinical efficacy of laparoscopic tumor resection combined with aspiration for central renal angiomyolipoma(RAML).Methods Retrospective analysis of clinical data of 11 patients with central RAML between November 2015 and August 2018,including 8 females and 3 males,aged 35-58 years,mean (45.3 ± 4.8) years;4 cases on the left side,7 cases on the right side,including 4 endophytic tumors,7 exophytic tumors;body mass index (BMI) 22-27 kg/m2,mean (24.9 ±1.8) kg/m2.The maximum diameter of these tumors were 4.2-8.9 cm,with an average of (6.7 ± 2.4)cm.The preoperative serum creatinine was 53-85 μmol/L,with an average of (64.6 ± 16.4) μmol/L,and the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) of the affected side was 42-55 ml/min,with an average of (45.5 ±3.6) ml/min.Lateral kidney function is normal.8 patients underwent retroperitoneal laparoscopic surgery and 3 cases underwent laparoscopic surgery.Based on the preoperative imaging,tumor tissue was aspirated as much as possible by suction device if the tumor got maximal fat component and had not abundant blood supply.Clamp the renal artery in case of bleeding affected the surgery vision.On the contrary,if the tumor had abundant blood supply,the renal artery was clamped first,then removed the section of tumor with scissor and the remaining basal tumor was aspirated totally by suction device.The operation time,warm ischemia time,intraoperative blood loss,postoperative hospital stay,postoperative complications and surgical results were analyzed.Results All the 11 cases were successfully completed without conversion to open surgery,only one case got injury of renal collection system.The operation time was 95-126 min,mean (110.5 ± 12.8) min,and the blood loss was 120-200 ml,mean (155.6 ± 38.4) ml.The warm ischemia time was 22-31 min,mean (27.6 ± 3.3) min,and the postoperative hospital stay was 5-7 days.RAMLs were diagnosed by the postoperative pathological examination.The renal function was normal and no recurrence occurred in these patients at a mean follow-up of 13.9 months.All the 11 cases were successfully completed.Postoperative pathological diagnosis was RAML.There was no complication in the 11 cases.Preoperative serum creatinine and serum creatinine in the first month after surgery [(64.6 ± 16.4)μmol/L vs.(66.7 ± 15.5)tμmol/L,P =0.38] and preoperative renal GFR and GFR in the first month after surgery [(45.5 ± 3.6)ml/min vs.(43.2 ± 3.3) ml/min,P =0.067],the difference was not statistically significant.No recurrence was observed in the 11 cases with an average follow-up of 13.9 months.Conclusions Our initial experience suggests that laparoscopic tumor resection combined with aspiration is a safe,effective and minimally invasive method for the treatment of central RAML.
