Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the feasibility and effectiveness of laparoscopic-assisted modified Swenson’s operation for Hirschsprung’s disease in infants. Methods A total of 13 infants with Hirschsprung’s disease including 11 males and 2 females were treated by laparoscopic-assisted modified Swenson’s surgery. Three- or four-trocar technique was used under a CO2 pressure of 8-10 mm Hg. The seromuscular layer of the colon was obtained for pathological examination. The mesenteries of the sigmoid colon and rectum were dissected by Ligasure, and the rectum was dissected down to 0.5-1.0 cm above the dentate line. Through the anus, the angusty and transmigration segment of the intestinal canal were evaginated, pulled out, and resected. Whole-layer colon-rectum anastomosis was performed,?21 mm stapler was used in 3 cases. Results All the operations were completed with laparoscopy in 85-161 min (mean, 115 min). The blood loss was less than 12 ml in all the patients. No intraoperative complications occurred. After the operation, 3 patients developed intestinal inflammation, 1 had anastomotic leakage, and 1 feces stain. All the compilations were cured by conservative treatments. The patients were followed up for 6 to 42 months (mean, 26 months), during which no one had complications. Conclusion Laparoscopic-assisted modified Swenson’s operation is feasible and effective for Hirschsprung’s disease in infants.
