Abstract:
Objective To investigate the feasibility of laparoscopy assisted Meckel’s diverticulum resection in children. Methods Meckel’s diverticulum resection was performed under laparoscope in 12 children from October 2000 to April 2002.Two 3 mm incisions were made on the McBurney point and the midpoint between the umbilicus and the pubis,respectively.Three 3 mm trocar were introduced.When the diverticulum was found,the incision was prolonged to 2 cm long along the inferior border of the umbilicus.The lesion was removed externally and the intestine was anastomosed. Results All operations were completed smoothly under laparoscope. The intraoperative blood loss was 2～3 ml and the operation time was 1 2～2 5 h.The diverticulum was 1 cm?2 cm～3 cm?4 cm in size.The patients were dismissed 5～7 days after surgery,without obvious scar formation. Conclusions Laparoscopic Meckel’s diverticulum resection is feasible, with the advantages of the minimal invasion, rapid recovery and unobvious scars.
