Abstract
Conventional five-port laparoscopic surgery, the current standard treatment for colorectal carcinoma (CRC), has many disadvantages. To assess the influence of reduced-port laparoscopic surgery (RPLS) on perioperative indicators, postoperative recovery, and serum inflammation indexes in patients with CRC. The study included 115 patients with CRC admitted between December 2019 and May 2023, 52 of whom underwent conventional five-port laparoscopic surgery (control group) and 63 of whom underwent RPLS (research group). Comparative analyses were performed on the following dimensions: Perioperative indicators [operation time (OT), incision length, intraoperative blood loss (IBL), and rate of conversion to laparotomy], postoperative recovery (first postoperative exhaust, bowel movement and oral food intake, and bowel sound recovery time), serum inflammation indexes [high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), and interleukin-6 (IL-6)], postoperative complications (anastomotic leakage, incisional infection, bleeding, ileus), and therapeutic efficacy. The two groups had comparable OTs and IBL volumes. However, the research group had a smaller incision length; lower rates of conversion to laparotomy and postoperative total complication; and shorter time of first postoperative exhaust, bowel movement, oral food intake, and bowel sound recovery; all of which were significant. Furthermore, hs-CRP, IL-6, and TNF-α levels in the research group were significantly lower than the baseline and those of the control group, and the total effective rate was higher. RPLS exhibited significant therapeutic efficacy in CRC, resulting in a shorter incision length and a lower conversion rate to laparotomy, while also promoting postoperative recovery, effectively inhibiting the inflammatory response, and reducing the risk of postoperative complications.
