The effect of combined head and tail approach during laparoscopic D3 lymph node dissection on pain severity and complications in patients with right colon cancer.

Abstract

To examine the impact of a combined craniocaudal approach on pain and complications during laparoscopic D3 lymph node dissection in clients diagnosed with right colon cancer (RCC). 100 RCC patients were divided into Group A and Group B. Both groups underwent laparoscopic D3 lymph node dissection, with Group A undergoing an intermediate approach and Group B undergoing a combined head and tail approach. Two groups of patients' perioperative (surgical time, intraoperative blood loss, number of lymph node dissection) indicators, postoperative recovery (postoperative exhaust time, postoperative hospital stay, drainage tube removal time) indicators, perioperative pain level (VAS scores 1, 3, and 5days following surgery), and incidence of complications (vascular injury, intestinal obstruction, anastomotic bleeding, incision infection), and the therapeutic efficacy [CEA, CA19-9] indicators were compared. Clients in the B teamhad substantially shorter operating times and considerably fewer intraoperative hemorrhage than those in the A team. The VAS grades of clients in the B teamwere considerably lower than those in the A teamthe day following surgery. Clients in the B teamexperienced vascular injury at a substantially lower rate than those in the A team. The overall incidence rate of problems did not differ statistically significantly between the A teamand the B team. Following therapy, teams A and B's CEA and CA19-9 levels were considerably lower than those of the same teamprior to therapy. Combined craniocaudal technique can significantly reduce intraoperative bleeding, postoperative pain, and the risk of sequelae from vascular injuries.
