Abstract
Objective To explore the short-term effect of totally laparoscopic radical total gastrectomy with D2 lymph node dissection for treatment of local advanced upper gastric cancer. Methods Clinical data of 112 patients with local advanced upper gastric cancer who underwent totally laparoscopic or open radical total gastrectomy with D2 lymph node dissection in Affiliated Cancer Hospital of Shanxi Medical University from June 2016 to June 2018 were analyzed. The patients were divided into totally laparoscopic radical total gastrectomy with D2 lymph node dissection group (totally laparoscopic gastrectomy group, 54 cases) and open surgery radical total gastrectomy with D2 lymph node dissection group (opening gastrectomy group, 58 cases). The perioperative conditions and postoperative pathological conditions between the two groups were compared. Results All the 112 operations were technically successful. Compared with the opening gastrectomy group, the operating time of the totally laparoscopic gastrectomy group was longer [(240±47) min vs. (203±30) min], and the estimated blood loss was reduced [(103±21) ml vs. (260±34) ml], and the length of operative incision on body surface was shorter [(4.3±0.8) cm vs. (17.0±1.3) cm], and the differences between the two groups were statistically significant (all P 0.05). Compared with the opening gastrectomy group, the pain degree in 3-5 d after operation was slighter in the totally laparoscopic gastrectomy group, and the ratio of postoperative complications was lower, and the time of intestinal recovery and postoperative hospital stay was shorter, and the differences between the two groups were statistically significant (all P < 0.05). Conclusion Totally laparoscopic radical total gastrectomy with D2 lymph node dissection for local advanced upper gastric cancer has advantages in operation safety, the time of postoperative recovery and the number of postoperative complications, and the effect of lymph node dissection can reach the level of open surgery.
