Abstract:
Objective To investigate the safety,feasibility and effectivity of laparoscopic left hemihepatectomy for left hepatolithiasis.Methods From Jan.2005 to Dec.2013,36 patients with left hepatolithiasis underwent laparoscopic left hemihepatectomy (group LH),in comparison with 39 other patients who underwent conventional open left hemihepatectomy (group OH).The blood supply to left liver was dissected and cut off first.The liver parenchyma was transected and the left hepatic vein was dissected and clamped.Intraoperative choledochoscopy was carried out through the stump of left bile duct,laparoscopic choledocholithotomy and T-tube drainage were carried out when stones were found in the common or right bile duct.Blood loss,rate of residual stone,complication rate between the two groups were compared.Results The success rate of operation was 100%.Compared with group OH,group LH had shorter postoperative hospitalization,less incision infection and fewer analgesia needed(t =3.75,x2 =4.11,x2 =22.12,P <0.05).There was no statistical difference for blood loss,rate of transfusion,and postoperative complications such as bile leakage,pleural effusion,ascites,residual stones (t =0.66,x2 =0.70,x2 =0.01,x2 =0.52,x2 =0.01,x2 =0.28,x2 =0.01,P > 0.05).Conclusions Laparoscopic left hemihepatectomy is safe,feasible,and effective for hepatolithiasis of the left liver lobe.
