Abstract
Aims:
Colorectal surgery in patients with liver cirrhosis represents a challenge because of its association with a higher morbidity and mortality rate. The aim of this study is to determine the benefits of choosing a minimally invasive surgical approach.
Methods:
The patients with liver cirrhosis that underwent colorectal cancer resection were identified retrospectively from our hospital database and were grouped by the technique used, laparoscopic and open resection. We compared the two groups for short and long-term results.
Results:
Upon comparison of the two groups, laparoscopic and open, there were no remarkable variations. The laparoscopic group showed a faster recovery rate, fewer days of hospitalization, and reduced blood loss during the intervention. The morbidity rate was lower in the minimally invasive group but the long-term overall survival rate was the same in both groups.
Conclusion(s): In some selected cases the laparoscopic approach for colorectal cancer resections in patients with liver cirrhosis may benefit from lower morbidity rates and less blood loss but the long-term overall survival did not seem to vary.
