Laparoscopic resection for rectal cancers: lessons learned from 579 cases.

Abstract：

OBJECTIVE:The aim of this study is to evaluate the short-term outcomes and long-term survival of laparoscopic rectal cancer resection at a single institution with 579 cases over a 15-year period. SUMMARY BACKGROUND DATA:The use of laparoscopic resection for colon cancer has been shown to be safe with comparable oncological outcomes. However, the role of laparoscopic resection for rectal cancer is still controversial with few studies looking into long-term outcomes. METHODS:From May 1992 to April 2007, 579 patients underwent laparoscopic resection for rectosigmoid and rectal cancer. The clinical data of these patients were retrospectively reviewed from a prospectively collected database. Data evaluated includes short- and long-term results, with survival outcomes calculated using the Kaplan-Meier method. RESULTS:Over this 15-year period, 316 patients had laparoscopic anterior resection for rectosigmoid and upper rectal cancer, 152 patients had laparoscopic sphincter-saving total mesorectal excision, 92 patients had laparoscopic abdominoperineal resection, 17 patients had laparoscopic Hartmann procedure for rectal cancer, and 2 patients had proctocolectomy. The median age of these patients was 68 years (range, 35-95). The overall early and late operative morbidity was 18.8% and 9.7%, respectively. Conversion to open surgery was required in 5.4%of patients. Anastomotic leak rate was 3.5%. The median follow-up time was 56 months (range, 8-288). Port-site recurrence occurred in 2 patients. Locoregional recurrence occurred in 7.4% of patients after curative resection. The overall 5- and 10-year survivals for rectal cancer were 70% and 45.5%, respectively. The cancer-specific 5- and 10- year survival was 76% and 56%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS:The results of this study with large number of patients over a long follow-up period suggested that laparoscopic resection for rectal cancer is safe with good long-term oncological outcomes.
