Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the short-term and long-term efficacy of laparoscopic surgery for colorectal cancer in elderly patients aged 80 and over.Methods:This study included patients aged 80 and over with sigmoid or rectal cancer who had undergone radical surgery in Beijing Hospital between January 2013 and December 2020.Of the enrolled patients, 47 underwent laparoscopic surgery, and 44 received open surgery.After 1∶1 propensity score matching(PSM), there were 32 cases in each group.Patient clinicopathological characteristics, surgery data, post-operative outcomes and long-term survival were compared.Results:Before PSM, there were significant differences in sex composition and tumor locations between the open surgery and laparoscopic surgery groups.After PSM, there was no significant difference in clinicopathological characteristics between the two groups.Before and after PSM, the operative time for laparoscopic surgery was statistically longer than that for open surgery.The intraoperative blood loss, the postoperative complication rate and the number of harvested lymph nodes were not significantly different between the two groups before and after PSM.Before and after PSM, the postoperative hospital stay in the laparoscopic operation group was shorter than that in the open surgery group, but the difference was not statistically significant.Before PSM, the 1-year, 3-year and 5-year survival rates of the open surgery group were 92.4%, 69.5% and 58.1%, respectively, and the 1-year, 3-year and 5-year survival rates of laparoscopic group were 91.3%, 79.8% and 69.5%, respectively.There was no significant difference in overall survival between the two groups before PSM( χ2=0.591, P=0.422). After PSM, the 1-year, 3-year and 5-year survival rates in the open surgery group were 89.3%, 67.1% and 52.2%, respectively, and the 1-year, 3-year and 5-year survival rates in the laparoscopic surgery group were 90.6%, 74.3% and 65.0%, respectively.There was no significant difference in the overall survival between the two groups after PSM( χ2=1.316, P=0.251). Conclusions:For elderly colorectal cancer patients aged 80 and over, laparoscopic surgery and open surgery have similar rates of complications and long-term survival.This study provides evidence for the safety of laparoscopic surgery.Further prospective randomized controlled clinical trials are needed to confirm these findings.
