Abstract:Objective To investigate the feasibility and safety of retroperitoneoscopic accurate anatomical left adrenalectomy.Methods The consecutive clinical data and surgical video (trial group) of 107 cases of accurat anatomical left adrenalectomy from January 2018 to March 2019 were retrospectively analyzed, 95 cases of retroperitoneoscopy traditional left adrenalectomy (control group) from January 2016 to December 2018 were contrastively analyzed. The difference between the operative time, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative drainage volume, postoperative hospitalization, postoperative recovery time of gastrointestinal function, postoperative analgesic requirements and the incidence of intraoperative and postoperative complications were statistically analyzed.Results The two groups of patients have completed the operation with no conversion to open and blood transfusion. The trial group was compared to the control group, the mean operative time was shorter [(43.6 ± 10.5) min and (67.8 ± 15.1) min], the mean intraoperative blood loss was less [(29.3 ± 12.5) mL and (69.4 ± 25.5) mL], peritoneum damage rate was lower (4.7% and 14.7%), the differences were all statistically significant (P < 0.05); The two group of the mean postoperative drainage volume was [(79.4 ± 22.3) mL and (81.9 ± 26.9) mL], the mean postoperative hospitalization was [(5.9 ± 0.7) d and (5.8 ± 0.7) d], the mean postoperative recovery time of gastrointestinal function was [(17.7 ± 4.4) d and (16.7 ± 3.6) d], postoperative analgesic requirements was [(167.3 ± 79.8) mg and (174.7 ± 77.1) mg], the differences were not statistically significant (P > 0.05).Conclusion The retroperitoneoscopic accurate anatomical left adrenalectomy is safe and feasible. Compared with the classical three-level method, the operative time is significantly shortened, the mean intraoperative estimated blood loss is reduced, and the incidence of intraoperative peritoneal injury is significantly reduced, which is worthy of clinical application.
