Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the efficacy of retroperitoneoscopic radical nephrectomy.Methods From October 2001 to September 2006,a total of 108 patients underwent retroperitoneoscopic radical nephrectomy in our department.The tumors sized 1.0-8.0 cm in diameter with a mean of(4.3?2.9)cm.Before the operation,42 patients were in stage T1N0M0,54 in stage T2M0N0,and 12 in stage T3aN0M0.Results The operation time was 35-180 min with a mean of(63.5?30.3)min,and the blood loss was 20-1500 ml [mean,(75?23)ml].Totally 3 patients were converted to open surgery.The intra-and postoperative complications included hemorrhage caused by the injury of the inferior vena cava or renal artery(4 cases),wound infection(3 cases),and hypercapnia(8 cases).The patients were followed up for 6-36 months(over 12 months in 61 cases),during which 2 patients died of pulmonary metastasis one year after the surgery,1 patent died of liver metastasis 7 months after postoperation,the other 105 patients survived without tumor.The 1-year survival rate was 98.4%(60/61);and 3-year survival rate was 85.7%(18/21).Conclusions Retroperitoneoscopic radical nephrectomy is mini-invasive and effective for renal carcinoma.The patients recover quickly after the surgery.The procedure is worth being wildly used.
