Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the feasibility of laparoscopic D2 radical gastrectomy for staging gastric carcinoma.Methods From January 2008 to August 2008,a series of 32 patients with staging gastric tumor underwent laparoscopic D2 radical gastrectomy in our hospital.For distal gastrectomy,groups 1,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,11p,12a,and 14v lymph nodes were resected,while for proximal gastrectomy groups 1,2,3,4,7,8,9,10,and 11 lymph nodes were excised.In the patients who received total radical gastrectomy,the groups 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12a,and 14v were harvested.Reconstruction of the digestive tract was performed after the resected tumor was removed through a mini-incision on the upper abdomen.Results The procedure was completed in all of the patients without conversion to open surgery.The distal gastrectomy was performed on 18 patients,and the proximal surgery was carried out in 2.The operation time and intraoperative blood loss for the two surgeries was 250-390 minutes(mean,325) and 50-250 ml,respectively.Total radical gastrectomy was employed in 12 cases with a mean operation time of 347 min(300-450),and blood loss of 60-350 ml.None of the 32 patients needed blood transfusion.Postoperative pathological examination showed that the edge of the resected samples were negative in all of the cases.They had the gastrointestinal function recovered in 24 to 72 hours(mean,38),and began fluid diet in 2 to 5 days(mean,2.8).No patient had anastomotic leakage or other complications.Thirty of the cases were followed up for 1 to 8 months.During the period,no recurrence,metastasis,or implantations at the incision or puncture sites were found.Conclusion Laparoscopic D2 radical gastrectomy is a safe,feasible,effective and minimally invasive technique with good short-term outcomes for patients with staging gastric carcinoma.
