摘要
BACKGROUND Ileostomies are commonly performed after colon and rectal surgeries.Laparoscopy-assisted ileostomy with adhesion lysis may have potential benefits over conventional open surgery.AIM To compare the outcomes of laparoscopy-assisted and conventional ileostomies.METHODS Data from 48 consecutive patients who underwent ileostomy at our institution between May 2021 and May 2022 were retrospectively analyzed.The groups comprised 26 and 22 patients who underwent laparoscopic ileostomy(laparoscopic group)and conventional ileostomy(conventional group),respectively,performed by a single surgeon.Patient demographics,operative characteristics,postoperative outcomes,and 30-d morbidities and mortality rates were analyzed.RESULTS The two groups had comparable mean ages,sex distributions,American Society of Anesthesiologists scores,and body mass indices.However,the laparoscopic group showed similar operative time,better visualization for adhesion lysis,and lower visual analog scale scores than the conventional group.CONCLUSION Laparoscopy-assisted ileostomy is a safe and efficient method that produces lower visual analog scale scores,better intraoperative visualization for effective adhesion lysis,and similar operative time compared with conventional ileostomy.
