Abstract:
Objective To present our experience with laparoscopic pyloromyotomy and laparoscopically assisted endorectal pull through for Hirschsprung's disease (HD) in newborns and infants.Methods Twenty newborns or infants with hypertrophic pyloric stenosis and HD,age ranged from 16~120 days and weight from 2.7~8 kg.Under epidural anesthesia and tracheal intubation,carbon dioxide was insufflated into abdominal cavity via a Veress needle,reaching an insufflative pressure of 12~14 mm Hg.One umbilical and two or three subcostal canulas for instrumentation were demanded.The pyloromyotomy was performed in patients with hypertrophic pyrolic stenosis and in patients with HD the affected colon and rectum were mobilized by dissecting the supplying vessels and cutting the peritoneal reflection,and pull-through procedure was carried out.Results The operation time was 25~150 minutes with rare complications.Oral feeding was resumed on the following day postoperation.The patients recovered and discharged from hospital 3~7 days after operation.Conclusions Laparoscopic pyloromyotomy and laparoscopic endorectal pull-through for HD in newborns and infants are safe and feasible.The advantages of this procedure include minimal trauma to abdomen,rapid restoration of stomach and bowel function and quick rehabilitation.
