Abstract

In this study it was aimed to evaluate the comparative results of different surgical techniques used in elective splenectomy on the basis of our particular experience and patient series. The medical records of patients undergoing elective splenectomy in a 8-year period were investigated retrospectively. The patients were divided into open (n=87), laparoscopic (n=17) and hand-assisted laparoscopic splenectomy (n=11) groups, and these groups were compared with respect to demographic data, body mass index, indication for splenectomy, size of the spleen, duration of operation, rate of conversion to open surgery, and major and minor complications after surgery. It was detected that hand-assisted laparoscopic splenectomy was performed in larger spleens. Only two of the 11 patients had idiopathic trombocytopenic purpura in the hand-assisted laparoscopic splenectomy group, whereas the major cause of splenectomy in other groups was idiopathic trombocytopenic purpura. Conversion to the open surgery was seen in one patient in each of the two laparoscopic groups, and relaparotomy was performed in one patient in each of the open surgery and hand-assisted laparoscopy groups. There were 5 minor surgical complications in the open surgery group, and one in each of the other groups. In conclusion hand-assisted laparoscopic splenectomy which was more preferred in patients with large sized spleens has shortened the operation time. Laparoscopic splenectomy and hand-assisted laparoscopic splenectomy are safe surgical procedures with acceptable complication rates.

Özet

Bu çalışmada veri tabanımızdaki hasta serisinden ve deneyimlerden yola çıkılarak elektif splenektomilerde seçilen farklı cerrahi tekniklerin karşılaştırmalı sonuçlarının değerlendirilmesi amaçlanmıştır. Sekiz yıllık bir dönemde yapılan elektif splenektomilere ait veriler retrospektif olarak incelendi. Hastalar açık (n=87), laparoskopik (n=17) ve el yardımlı laparoskopik (n=11) splenektomi gruplarına ayrılarak, demografik veriler, vücut kitle indeksi, splenektomi nedeni, dalak boyutu, operasyon süresi, açık ameliyata geçiş, cerrahi sonrası majör ve minör komplikasyonlar yönünden karşılaştırıldı. El yardımlı laparoskopik splenektominin daha büyük dalaklarda uygulandığı tespit edildi. Diğer gruplarda ilk sıradaki splenektomi nedeni idiyopatik trombositopenik purpura iken, el yardımlı laparoskopik splenektomi grubunda 11 hastanın sadece ikisi idiyopatik trombositopenik purpura hastasıydı. Her iki laparoskopik gruptan birer hastada açık ameliyata geçilmiş, açık cerrahi ve el yardımlı laparoskopi gruplarında birer hastada ameliyat sonrası kanama nedeniyle relaparotomi uygulanmıştı. Açık cerrahi grubunda 5, diğer gruplarda ise birer adet minör cerrahi komplikasyon gözlendi. Sonuç olarak, dalak boyutlarının artmış olduğu hastalarda daha fazla tercih edilen el yardımlı laparoskopik splenektomi ameliyat süresini kısaltmaktadır. Laparoskopik splenektomi ve el yardımlı laparoskopik splenektomi, kabul edilebilir komplikasyon oranları ile güvenle uygulanabilecek tekniklerdir.
