Abstract:
Objective:To compare the advantages of high or low inferior mesenteric artery (IMA) ligation in laparoscopic anterior resection of rectum based on CT precise guidance.Methods:One hundred and twenty patients with rectal cancer who underwent laparoscopic anterior resection of rectum in Shanghai Sixth People′s Hospital South Campus from January 2016 to June 2020 were selected. Surgical protocol was selected according to the principle of voluntariness. Sixty-eight cases underwent high IMA ligation (high IMA ligation group), and 52 cases underwent low IMA ligation (low IMA ligation group). The perioperative conditions (operative time, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative anal exhaust time, abdominal drainage, hospitalization time and ileostomy), postoperative pathological data (proximal margin distance, distal margin distance, total number of dissected lymph nodes and number of positive lymph nodes) and postoperative recovery (anastomotic stoma fistula, urinary retention, sexual dysfunction and daily number of defecation) were recorded. The quality of life 6 months after surgery was evaluated by the quality of life instruments for colorectal cancer scale (QLQ-CR38). Patients were followed up for 6 to 36 months, and the local recurrence and distant metastasis were recorded.Results:The postoperative anal exhaust time in low IMA ligation group was significantly shorter than that in high IMA ligation group: (2.87 ± 1.04) d vs. (3.26 ± 1.00) d, and there was statistical difference ( P<0.05); there were no statistical differences in operative time, intraoperative blood loss, abdominal drainage, hospitalization time and rate of ileostomy between 2 groups ( P>0.05). There were no statistical difference in proximal margin distance, distal margin distance, total number of dissected lymph nodes and number of positive lymph nodes between 2 groups ( P>0.05). The incidences of anastomotic stoma fistula, urinary retention and sexual dysfunction in low IMA ligation group were significantly lower than those in high ligation group: 3.85% (2/52) vs. 13.24% (9/68), 3.85% (2/52) vs. 11.76% (8/68) and 5.77% (3/52) vs. 14.71% (10/68), the daily number of defecation was significantly less than that in high ligation group: (2.87 ± 0.98) times vs. (4.05 ± 1.56) times, and there were statistical differences ( P<0.05 or <0.01). The functional dimension, symptom dimension and aggregate score of QLQ-CR38 in low IMA ligation group were significantly higher than those in high ligation group: (15.46 ± 4.22) scores vs. (13.68 ± 3.56) scores, (51.82 ± 13.54) scores vs. (45.65 ± 12.42) scores and (67.28 ± 14.28) scores vs. (59.33 ± 12.85) scores, and there were statistical differences ( P<0.05 or <0.01). There were no statistical difference in the rates of local recurrence and distant metastasis between 2 groups ( P>0.05). Conclusions:The application of low IMA ligation based on CT precise guidance in laparoscopic anterior resection of rectum can obtain the same surgical effect as the high IMA ligation. It can promote the recovery of gastrointestinal function after surgery, reduce the risk of complications, have less effect on the defecation function, which can improve the life quality after the surgery.
