Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the feasibility,safety and efficacy of laparoscopic appendectomy for acute appendicitis with previous abdominal surgery.Methods The clinical data of 253 patients with acute appendicitis undergoing laparoscopic surgery was retrospectively studied from Feb.2009 to Jun.2012,including 177 patients without previous abdominal surgery (no previous abdominal surgery group,NPAS group),76 patients with previous abdominal surgery (previous abdominal surgery group,PAS group).Parameters studied were conversion rates,operation time,blood loss,complications rate,length of hospital stay and the intestine function recovery time between two groups.Results The conversion rates were no significant difference between NPAS group and PAS group.The operation time of NPAS group and PAS group was (40.5 ± 12.3) minutes and (62.6 ± 14.2) minutes (P <0.05).The blood loss,intestine function recovery time,complications rate,and length of hospital stay were no significant minutes between NPAS group and PAS group after operation (P > 0.05).Conclusions Previous abdominal surgery prolongs the operation time of laparoscopic appendectomy,but history of abdominal surgery has no significant effect on laparoscopic surgical outcome,which may indicate that laparoscopic surgery for acute appendicitis with previous abdominal surgery is safe and effective and still has the adventages of less trauma,faster recovery.
