Abstract

Background: Lymphocele is an important condition commonly seen in the follow-up of patients who underwent radical prostatectomy and extended pelvic lymph node dissection (ePLND) for prostate cancer. Since the formation and treatment of lymphocele may have negative consequences in terms of patient-care and health expenditure. Several techniques have been used to prevent lymphocele. In this study, we aimed to investigate the efficacy of the previously described preventing lymphocele ensuring absorption transperitoneally (P.L.E.A.T.) technique and compare the outcomes of patients who underwent this technique. Methodology: The data of patients who underwent robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy with ePLND for prostate cancer between 2017 and 2023 in our institution were retrospectively analyzed. Patients were divided into two groups according to the application of the P.L.E.A.T. technique in their operations. All patients were followed up with the same protocol. Patient characteristics and postoperative follow-up data were statistically analyzed. Results: Data of 78 patients (26 patients in the P.L.E.A.T. group and 52 patients in control group) were evaluated retrospectively. There were no statistically significant differences between the groups in terms of demographic and clinical characteristics, including age, prostate-specific antigen levels, body mass index, American Society of Anaesthesiologists score, D'Amico risk classification, or the number of lymph nodes removed. Analysis of postoperative data revealed statistically significant differences between the two groups in total amount of drainage (P < .05), drain removal day (P < .05), and length of hospital stay (P < .05). Conclusions: Our experience with the P.L.E.A.T. technique showed potential advantages in line with the literature, with a considerable reduction in total drain amount, drain removal day, and length of stay.

预防术后淋巴囊肿:经腹腔技术在机器人辅助腹腔镜前列腺切除术中预防淋巴囊肿确保吸收的效果。
背景:淋巴囊肿是前列腺癌根治性前列腺切除术和扩大盆腔淋巴结清扫术(ePLND)患者随访中常见的重要情况。因为淋巴囊肿的形成和治疗可能在病人护理和卫生支出方面产生负面影响。已经使用了几种技术来预防淋巴囊肿。在这项研究中,我们的目的是研究先前描述的防止淋巴囊肿经腹腔吸收(P.L.E.A.T.)技术的有效性,并比较接受该技术的患者的结果。方法:回顾性分析我院2017年至2023年接受机器人辅助腹腔镜前列腺根治术联合ePLND治疗前列腺癌的患者资料。根据P.L.E.A.T.技术在手术中的应用情况将患者分为两组。所有患者均采用相同的治疗方案进行随访。对患者特征及术后随访资料进行统计学分析。结果:回顾性分析78例患者的资料,其中P.L.E.A.T.组26例,对照组52例。两组在人口统计学和临床特征方面无统计学差异,包括年龄、前列腺特异性抗原水平、体重指数、美国麻醉医师协会评分、D'Amico风险分类或淋巴结切除数量。术后数据分析显示,两组患者引流总量(P < 0.05)、引流天数(P < 0.05)、住院时间(P < 0.05)差异均有统计学意义。结论:我们对P.L.E.A.T.技术的经验显示出与文献一致的潜在优势,可以显著减少总引流量、引流天数和住院时间。

期刊介绍: Journal of Laparoendoscopic & Advanced Surgical Techniques (JLAST) is the leading international peer-reviewed journal for practicing surgeons who want to keep up with the latest thinking and advanced surgical technologies in laparoscopy, endoscopy, NOTES, and robotics. The Journal is ideally suited to surgeons who are early adopters of new technology and techniques. Recognizing that many new technologies and techniques have significant overlap with several surgical specialties, JLAST is the first journal to focus on these topics both in general and pediatric surgery, and includes other surgical subspecialties such as: urology, gynecologic surgery, thoracic surgery, and more.
