Abstract
Rectal malignancies that require abdominoperineal resection (APR) and Anterior resection (AR) is very common. Laparoscopic APR or AR can be a better option. This study observed the feasibility of this newer technique for alternative to conventional open method. This prospective type of observational study was comprised of patients with diagnosis of rectal cancer, who admitted to BIRDEM General Hospital for Laparoscopic APR or AR from November 2015 to April 2016. Among 19 patients, age range was from 20-78 years, mean age was 49.84±17.04 years. Male: female ratio was 12:7 (63.2%:36.8%). Twelve (12) patients underwent Laparoscopic APR, 6 Laparoscopic AR, one conversion (conversion rate - 5.3%). Less analgesics were required, a mean of 5.61±1.57 dose/ample/mg opioid injections needed for 4.05 days. An early postoperative ambulation (2.16±0.76 days) was noted. Mean post-operative hospital stay was 11.53±1.98 days. Laparoscopic APR or AR is a safe, effective and technically feasible procedure. It can be a better operative procedure in terms of early postoperative outcome such as less analgesics requirement, early ambulation and shorter hospital stay.
