BACKGROUND Postoperative complications are important factors affecting the survival time and quality of life of patients undergoing radical gastrectomy.AIM To investigate and compare the anesthetic effects of intravenous general anesthesia combined with epidural anesthesia or ultrasound-guided bilateral transversus abdominal plane block(TAPB)in gastric cancer patients undergoing laparoscopic radical gastrectomy.METHODS The clinical data of 85 patients who underwent laparoscopic radical gastrectomy in our hospital from December 2020 to January 2023 were retrospectively collected and divided into a TAPB group(n=45)and epidural anesthesia group(n=40)according to the different anesthesia and analgesia programs used.The TAPB group received general anesthesia combined with TAPB,and the epidural anesthesia group received general anesthesia combined with epidural anesthesia.The pain status,cognitive status,intestinal barrier indicators,recovery quality,and incidence of complications were compared between the two groups.RESULTS Compared with the epidural anesthesia group,the TAPB group’s visual analog scale scores were significantly lower 6 h,12 h,24 h and 48 h after surgery(P<0.05).The incidence of postoperative cognitive dysfunction(POCD)in the TAPB group was significantly lower than that in the epidural anesthesia group,and the Mini-mental State Examination score 24 h after surgery was significantly higher in the TAPB group than the epidural anesthesia group(P<0.05).The levels of diamine oxidase and plasma D-lactate were significantly lower in the TAPB group than the epidural anesthesia group 24 h after surgery(P<0.05).The agitation score and the incidence of agitation during recovery were significantly lower in the TAPB group than epidural anesthesia group(P<0.05).The total incidence of postoperative complications in the TAPB group was 4.44%,significantly lower than the 20.00%in the epidural anesthesia group(P<0.05).CONCLUSION Compared with epidural anesthesia combined with general anesthesia,TAPB combined with general anesthesia had a good analgesic effect in laparoscopic radical gastrectomy and can further reduce the incidence of POCD and postoperative complications,improve the levels of intestinal barrier indicators,and improve postoperative recovery quality.
