Abstract:
Objective To describe the technique and characteristics of simple hand-assisted laparoscopic resection of renal and adrenal. Methods A total of 37 patients (22 males and 15 females) underwent simple hand-assisted laparoscopic resection of renal and adrenal from June 1999 to April 2004.Their mean age was 52 years (range,25～65 years).Renal resection group included 29 cases,including 13 of renal carcinoma and 2 of renal pelvic carcinoma.All these 15 cases were staged as T 1N 0M 0.The average tumor volume of the renal resection group was 3 cm?3 cm?2 cm.8 of hydronephrosis,2 of renal tuberculosis,4 of renal atrophied.Adrenal tumor resection group included 8 cases;the average tumor volume was 4 cm?5 cm?6 cm. Results Simple hand-assisted laparoscopic resection of the tumors was performed successfully in 36 cases without any complication such as injury of intestines and other important abdominal viscera except 1 case who underwent open surgery.The mean operative time of nephrectomy was 145 min,and that of adrenal giant tumor resection was 125 min.The mean blood loss was 110 ml.The patients recovered well and were discharged 7 to 8 days after operation.Follow-up lasted 3 months to 5 years after operation.Of the 37 cases,35 survived healthily;2 with renal carcinoma died (1 died of cerebrovascular accident 2 years after operation and the other died of brain and pulmonary metastasis 3 years after operation). Conclusions Simple hand-assisted laparoscopic resection of renal and adrenal giant tumor has the advantages of easier performance,shortened operative time and faster recovery from operation.Thus,this technique is worthy of popularization.
