Minimally Invasive Surgery Is Feasible in Patients with Liver and Kidney Transplantation.

Abstract:

:BACKGROUND Minimally invasive surgery (MIS) has rapidly advanced, but its use in transplant patients has lagged. We share our experience of MIS for patients after kidney and liver transplantation and compare our results with similar studies in the literature. MATERIAL AND METHODS This study included 14 MIS (12 laparoscopic, 2 transvaginal) procedures for 13 transplant cases (6 liver and 7 kidney) done from May 2006 to May 2018. Gastrointestinal surgery was performed in 6 cases: appendectomy performed 8 months after liver transplant and 16 months after kidney transplant in 2 cases, radical right hemi-colectomy performed 6 weeks after liver transplant in 1 case; exploration for chylous ascites 6 months after liver transplant in 1 case, sleeve gastrectomy performed 3 years after kidney transplant in 1 case, and partial hepatectomy performed 12 years after kidney transplant in 1 case. For urological problems, 2 patients received ipsilateral right-side nephroureterectomy performed 10 and 12 years after kidney transplant, and 1 patient received contralateral left-side nephroureterectomy performed 12 years after kidney transplant. The 2 liver transplant patients with huge incisional hernias received repair approximately 3 and 2 years after liver transplant. Three patients underwent gynecological surgery: 2 transvaginal for pelvic floor reconstruction in 1 patient with liver transplant and 1 hysterectomy in a kidney transplant patient, and 1 laparoscopic-assisted hysterectomy in a kidney transplant patient. We retrospectively analyzed the clinical presentation, operative findings, operation time, postoperative complications, and length of stay. RESULTS The postoperative course was uneventful, with early resumption of oral intake, including immunosuppressants administered the same as in the non-transplant patients. All surgical procedures in these transplant patients were achieved without conversion, showed stable kidney and liver function, had better surgical outcomes in comparison with traditional surgery, and most of them were discharged within 1 week. CONCLUSIONS Laparoscopic and non-laparoscopic MIS surgery are feasible and safe for abdominal organ transplant patients and are helpful for timely intervention in cases with acute abdomen. No adjustment of immunosuppressant is usually needed, as oral intake can be resumed very soon after surgery.
