Abstract:
Objective To investigate the feasibility, safety and effect of natural orifice transumbilical three-dimensional laparoscopic single-port hepojejunostomy for congenital choledochal cyst in children.
Methods Seven children with congenital choledochal cyst were treated by the same surgeon with transumbilical three-dimensional laparoscopic single-port Roux-en-Y hepojejunostomy. Preoperative, intraoperative and postoperative clinical data of the children were collected for retrospective analysis and followed up for 3 months.
Results All patients successfully completed operation, without transfer to open surgery or additional Trocar cases, none of 7 cases need blood transfusion and postoperative ICU treatment. The average operative time was 331 min, the intraoperative blood loss was 5-22 ml, and the postoperative hospital stay was 5-7 d. There were no anastomotic leakage, anastomotic stenosis, hemorrhage, acute intestinal obstruction, incision infection, cholangitis, acute pancreatitis or other complications. The appearance of the umbilical region was satisfactory and no visible postoperative scar was found in all patients.
Conclusions Natural orifice transumbilical three-dimensional laparoscopic single-port hepojejunostomy for congenital choledochal cyst in children is safe and feasible, with good short-term results and satisfactory postoperative cosmetic results, but the procedure is difficult.
