Abstract

To explore the application of three-dimensional (3D) high-definition (HD) laparoscopy in radical operation for stomach carcinoma. A total of 12 cases of radical operation for stomach carcinoma were performed under 3D laparoscopy. The procedures included total gastrectomy (n = 6) and distal gastrectomy (n = 6). The operative duration, intraoperative blood loss, number of lymph node harvested, postoperative first flatus day and time of food intake were recorded and analyzed. All cases were successfully operated without complications. The operative duration was 180-210 min, blood loss 50-150 ml, number of lymph node harvested 32-54 and postoperative first faltus day 1-3 days. Also all cases could take fluids at Days 4-5 postoperation. 3D laparoscopic radical operation for gastric cancer may be performed safely and effectively with decreased surgical difficulties.
