ABSTRACT: Aim
To compare the effects of open (OG) and laparoscopic gastrectomy (LG) on body composition and muscle strength.Methods
This study performed a propensity score matching analysis using cases from a large-scale, multicenter, phase III randomized controlled trial concerning oral nutritional supplements after gastrectomy and analyzed both the whole and matched cohorts. Measurements of body composition and hand grip strength (HGS) were performed at baseline (preoperatively) and at 1, 2, 3, 6, and 12 months after gastrectomy.Results
Of 835 patients, 275 and 560 underwent OG and LG, respectively. Skeletal muscle mass (SMM) and HGS loss were significantly lesser in the LG group than in the OG group. The propensity score-matched analysis, including 120 pairs of patients, confirmed that the % SMM loss values at 1, 2, 3, 6, and 12 POM were -4.5%, -4.0%, -4.7%, -4.6%, and -5.8% in the OG group and -3.0%, -1.9%, -2.4%, -2.2%, and -2.7% in the LG group, respectively. The % SMM loss was significantly lesser in the LG group than in the OG group (repeated measures ANOVA p < 0.001). The HGS loss was non-significantly smaller in the LG group than in the OG group.Conclusion
Skeletal muscle mass loss was significantly lesser in the LG group than in the OG group in both cohorts, indicating that LG may be more effective than OG for maintaining muscle mass.
