Abstract:
Objective To explore the causes and treatment of the complications after laparoscopic surgery in neonate and infants.Methods From January 2003 to June 2007,totally 287 neonates and infants received laparoscopic surgeries in our hospital, 10 of them developed postoperative complications.Results The complications included 7 cases of gastric mucosa rupture during pyloric resection,1 case of delayed rupture of the pylorus,1 case of intestinal malrotation complicated with duodenal stenosis,and 1 case of incisional hernia.The former 9 cases were cured by open surgery,and the last one recovered spontaneously in 4 months. Conclusions Mucosarupture caused by pyloric resection is the most common complication after laparoscopic surgery in neonates and infants,open surgery should be performed in such a situation.Delayed rupture of the bowel after laparoscopic surgery can be potentially fatal,and should be treated as soon as possible.Intestinal malrotation may lead to a high rate of malformation,which can be avoided by early diagnosis and treatment.
