Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the clinical significance of laparoscopic resection for large intramural hysteromyoma. Methods A retrospective analysis was made concerning 42 cases of single intramural hysteromyoma as large as 6～10 cm in diameter: 24 cases underwent laparoscopic hysteromyomectomy and 18 cases received open resection. Intra- and post-operative parameters between the two groups were compared. Results All operations in the two groups were successfully completed without complications. The operative time was significantly longer in the laparoscopic group (89.0?26.9 min) than that in the open group (63.3?20.1 min) ( t=3.400,P =0.002). No statistical difference was observed in the intraoperative blood loss between the laparoscopic group (93.6?65.9 ml) and the open group (100.0?48.7 ml) ( t=-0.347, P=0.731) . The analgesic requirement was less in the laparoscopic group (2 out of 24 cases ) than that in the open group (9 out of 18 cases) ( ? 2 =7.208, P =0.007). The time to first flatus was shorter in the laparoscopic group (23.5?11.3 h) than that in the open group (32.0?13.6 h) ( t=-2.211, P =0.033). The postoperative pyrexia rate was significantly lower in the laparoscopic group (2/24) than that in the open group (7/18) ( ? 2=4.033, P =0.045). Conclusions Laparoscopic resection for larger intramural hysteromyoma is safe and reliable. As compared with open hysteromyomectomy, it offers more rapid recovery and lower postoperative pyrexia rate, as well as the same amount of blood loss. Its prolonged operative time may be associated with the relatively large size of the hysteromyoma.
