Abstract:
Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of unidirectional-loop caudal-medial approach for laparoscopic-assisted radical resection of right colon cancer.Methods The retrospective and descriptive study was performed.The clinical data of 37 patients who underwent laparoscopic-assisted radical resection of right colon cancer through unidirectional-loop caudal-medial approach at the Sixth Mfiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University from January 2015 to March 2016 were collected.Tumor-free principle was followed and unidirectional-loop caudal-medial approach was conducted.Observation indicators included:(1) surgical situations:operation time,volume of intraoperative blood loss,(2) postoperative recovery:time to initial anal exsufflation,time of draining tube removal,postoperative complications,duration of postoperative hospital stay,(3) postoperative pathological examination:number of lymph node dissection,number of positive lymph node,length of specimen,incision margin,tumor pathological staging and type,(4) follow-up.All the patients were followed up using outpatient examination and telephone interview up to June 2016.Measurement data with normal distribution were presented as x ± s and measurement data with skewed distribution were presented as average (range).Results (1) Surgical situations:37 patients received successful operation,without conversion to open surgery and perioperative death.Operation time and volume of intraoperative blood loss in 37 patients were (170 ± 50)minutes and 50 mL (range,20-300 mL).(2) Postoperative recovery:time to initial anal exsufflation,time of draining tube removal and average duration of postoperative hospital stay were (3.5 ± 1.0) days,(4.3 ± 1.1) days and 10 days (range,6-21 days),respectively.Two patients with postoperative wound liquefaction were improved by symptomatic treatment,and the other patients had no complication.(3) Postoperative pathological examination:number of lymph node dissection,number of positive lymph node,number of central lymph node dissection and length of specimen in 37 patients were 22 ±8,0 (range,0-6),6 ±5 and (32 ±9)cm,respectively,with negative incision margins.Postoperative tumor pathological staging showed that stage pT1,pT2,pT3 and pT4a were detected in 0,1,33 and 3 patients,and stage pN0,pN1 and pN2 in 23,12 and 2 patients,respectively.Postoperative tumor pathological type showed that 3,7,23 and 4 patients were respectively diagnosed with mucinous adenocarcinoma,high-differentiated adenocarcinoma,moderate-differentiated adeno-carcinoma and low-differentiated adenocarcinoma.(4) Follow-up:37 patients were followed up for 3-17 months with a median time of 11 months.During the follow-up,1 patient was complicated with anastomotic recurrence and 4 with distant metastases,the other 32 patients had tumor-free survival.Conclusion Unidirectional-loop caudal-medial approach for laparoscopicassisted radical resection of right colon cancer is safe and feasible,with a good short-term outcome,and it should be widely spread.
