Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the feasibility and techniques of hand-assisted laparoscopic resection using the LapDisc in patients with hepatic hemangioma. Methods A total of 8 patients with hepatic hemangioma underwent hand-assisted laparoscopic partial hepatectomy. The patients consisted of 6 men and 2 women, with the age ranging 30~72 years (mean, 47.6 years). Results The hand-assisted laparoscopic hepatectomy was successfully performed in all the patients. The average operating time was 196.3 min (range, 110～350 min), the average blood loss was 307.5 ml (range,100～750 ml), and the average postoperative hospital stay, 7.9 days (range,6～15 days). No postoperative complications such as bile leakage, intraabdominal bleeding or infection occurred. Conclusions Hand-assisted laparoscopic hepatectomy using the LapDisc is safe and feasible for patients with hepatic hemangioma with surgical indications.
