Abstract:
Objective To evaluate clinical features and the clinical application of radical transabdominal operation for the senile cardiac cancer by using the EEA(end-to-end anastomosis) stapler.Methods 80 senile patients underwent curative intent due to cardic cancer from 1991 to 2001,and the clinical effects of transabdominal operation for cardiac carcinoma by using the EEA stapler were investigated retrospectively.Results The average age of the patients was 70-year old, and the ratio of men to women was 5∶1. The average course of the disease was 3 2 months. Only 2 5% of the patients got early diagnosis, and the rate of the preoperative complications was 60%. Patients were treated by radical transabdominal operation by using stapler, and the rates of radical dissection and palliative dissection were 71 3% and 18 8% respectively. The incidence of postoperative complication was 5%, and the in-patient mortality was 1 25%, and the above indexes were significantly lower than those in the trans-thoracicoabdominal approach. The 5-year survival rate was 20% after gastrectomy.Conclusions This study showed that the approach exerted little effect on the respiratory and circulatory systems, and it could decrease the surgical risk and the incidence of diverse complications.
