Abstract
Objective To examine the practicability and security of the LigaSureTM vessel-sealing system in radical gastrcctomy.Methods Seventy patients of stage Ⅰ~Ⅲ gastric cancer undergone radical gastrectomy were analyzed retrospectively.Thirty-five radical gastrectomy were performed with LigaSureTM vessel-sealing system,the other 35 eases were performed without LigaSureTM.The operative duration,volume of intraoperative hemorrhage,and postoperative complications were analyzed.Results There were significant difference in both operative duration[(159.9±24.7)min vs(172.6±23.7)min,P<0.05]and volume of intraoperative hemorrhage[(335.7±40.3)ml vs(371.7±43.2)ml,P<0.01].There was no significant difference in the postoperative complications between LigaSureTM group and conventional method group.All patients recovered without severe postoperative complications.Conclusion Radical resection of gastric cancer using LigaSureTM instead of conventional hand tie method appears to he shorten operative duration,decreased volume of intraoperative hemorrhage.And the technique is convenient and safe. Key words: Stomach neoplasm; Radical resection; Vessel-sealing system
