Abstract:
Objective To compare the therapeutic results of laparoscopic-assisted endorectal colon pull-through with radical Swenson's technique for Hirschsprung's disease Methods 39 children who had undergone Swenson pull-through were retrospectively reviewed.The patients were divided into 2 groups:open Swenson(n=20),laparoscopic procdeures(n=19). Use of laparoscopic equipment,operating time,hospital day,intraoperative blood loss,cost of hospital and postoperative complications were chosen as itews for comparisiom. Results The patienst in open Swenson passed stool and flatus in (78?28) hours and those in laparoscopic procedures did in (27?7) hours(t=2.87, P0.05),no major complications were found Conclusions The therapeutic results of laparoscopic-assisted coloc pull-through are similar to those of open and this procedure is economical.It appears to reduce postperative intestinal adhesion and postoperative recovery time dramatically, has smaller incision and renders itself more acceptable by the parents.
