Abstract:
Objective To explore the feasibility and significance of hand-assisted laparoscopic splenectomy (HALS) for ruptured spleen. Methods We conducted HALS in 18 cases of ruptured spleen between January 2002 and January 2003. According to the Buntain classification of CT-graded splenic injury, 7 cases were classified as “type Ⅱ” and 11 cases, “type Ⅲ”. Ruptured spleen was complicated by other organ injuries in 12 cases. Results The operation was completed successfully in 16 cases, the operation time being 75~115 min (mean, 92.5 min). A conversion to open surgery was made in 2 cases, which were suspected of having injuries of other major vessels. Postoperative time to normal activities was 20~30 days in 6 cases of simple ruptured spleen and 30~100 days in 10 cases of ruptured spleen complicating other injuries. Conclusions HASL is feasible for “type Ⅱ or Ⅲ” ruptured spleen without severe complicating injuries.
