Abstract:Objective To explore the application strategy and clinical experience of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) in perioperative period of laparoscopic adrenalectomy.Methods From January 2016 to December 2020, 46 patients underwent laparoscopic adrenalectomy received ERAS management during the perioperative period, compared with 57 patients underwent laparoscopic adrenalectomy with traditional management. The postoperative recovery time of gastrointestinal exhaust, postoperative 2 h pain score, postoperative hospital stay, urinary tract infection, urinary retention, incidence of respiratory tract infection, deep venous thrombosis, and wound infection were compared between the two groups.Results There was no significant difference in sex ratio, age, left and right sides of adrenal gland, pathological classification of adrenal tumor, size of adrenal tumor, hypertension, operation method (transabdominal or retroperitoneal), operation time and intraoperative bleeding between the traditional group and ERAS group (P > 0.05). The gastrointestinal exhaust time and postoperative hospital stay of ERAS group were shorter than those of the traditional group, the incidence of respiratory tract infection were lower than those of the traditional group, and the postoperative 2 h pain score was lower than that of the traditional group (P < 0.05). There was no significant difference in the urinary tract infection, deep vein thrombosis, incision infection and urinary retention between the two group (P > 0.05).Conclusion The application of ERAS perioperative management concept in clinical practice can promote the rehabilitation after laparoscopic adrenalectomy, which is worthy of clinical promotion.
