Abstract
AIMS: To compare the efficiency and complications of video endoscopy, inguinal lymphadenectomy and open inguinal lymph node dissection. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Nineteen video endoscopy inguinal lymphadenectomies were performed on 16 patients from September 2014 to December 2015, and 21 open inguinal lymph node dissections were performed on 18 patients from September 2013 to September 2014. Surgical time, operative blood loss, incidence of complications, length of stay, lymph node harvest and suture removal time were compared between the two groups. RESULTS: Operative time (135.5±45.52 vs. 169.8±55.19 min), lymph node harvest (10.78±5.22 vs. 12.60±5.53), and hospital stay (10.43±2.53 vs. 12.50±4.98 days) did not statistically differ between the two groups (p>0.05). However, operative blood loss (22.50±14.24 vs. 68.44±42.19 ml), drainage tube removal time (7.23±1.79 vs. 11.44±2.69 days), incidence of complications (21.05% vs. 61.9%), and suture removal time (7.52±1.24 vs. 12.81±2.04 min) were significantly reduced in the video endoscopy surgery group compared with the open surgery group (p<0.05). CONCLUSION: Compared with open surgery, video endoscopy surgery achieved the same efficiency, and had the advantage of reduction of complications, suture removal time and in-surgery blood loss.
