Title: Comparison of the short-term and long-term efficacy of laparoscopic radical resection and open radical resection of colon cancer
Abstract: Objective
To evaluate the short-term and long-term curative effecacy in colon cancer patients who were treated with laparoscopic radical resection or open radical resection.
Methods
A total of 116 patients who received laparoscopic radical resection or open radical resection of colon cancer in our hospital from January 2013 to December 2015 were enrolled and divided into two groups named laparoscopic group and laparotomy group respectively according to the surgical procedure. There were 58 individuals in each group. SPSS18.0 statistical software was adopted for data analysis. The clinical data of perioperative indicators and recovering conditions after the operation were compared by Independent Samples t test .The incidence rate of postoperative complications and long-term curative efficacy were compared by chi square test. P<0.05 indicated that the difference was statistically significant.
Results
There were no significant difference in operation time and number of removed lymph nodes between the two groups (P>0.05). The amount of bleeding, postoperative analgesic time, exhaust time and hospital stays in the laparoscopic group were significantly less than those in the laparotomy group (P 0.05).
Conclusion
Laparoscopic colon resection has advantage of postoperative recovery and is equivalent to open surgery in long-term efficacy. Thus, laparoscopic colon resection is worthy of application for colon cancer patients.
