Abstract
Objective To investigate the therapeutic effect of total laparoscopic vs open surgery for gallbladder carcinoma. Methods Clinical data of 51 cases of laparoscopic surgery and 41 cases of open operation for gallbladder cancer from Mar 2012 to Dec 2016 were analyzed retrospectively. Results There were no perioperative death in both groups. The blood loss during operation, operative time, the first anal exhaust after operation and the hospital stay were in favour of laparoscopic procedure (t=2.756, 2.325, 1.362, 2.252, P 0.05), the short-term postoperative complications were in favor for laparoscopic surgery (χ2=5.522, P 0.05 ). Conclusion Laparoscopic radical surgery for gallbladder cancer is safe, feasible and less traumatic than open surgery, with long term survival comparable to open surgery.
