Abstract:
Objective To explore the methods, safety and efficacy of laparoscopic splenectomy (LS) and pericardial devascularization. Methods Five patients underwent LS and pericardial devascularization from January to June 2003. Results All the operations were completed under laparoscope and no hand-assisted procedure was required. The operating time was 3.0～4.0 hours (mean, 3.5 hours) and the intraoperative blood loss was 250～450 ml (mean, 350 ml). No surgical complications occurred. Conclusions Laparoscopic splenectomy with pericardial devascularization is a feasible, effective, safe and minimally invasive procedure for patients with normal-sized to medium-enlarged spleen.
