Project description:BackgroundTo compare the perioperative outcomes of transperitoneal laparoscopic (TLA), retroperitoneal laparoscopic (RLA), and robot-assisted transperitoneal laparoscopic (RATLA) adrenalectomy for adrenal tumors in our center.MethodsBetween April 2012 and February 2018, 241 minimally invasive adrenalectomies were performed. Cases were categorized based on the minimally invasive adrenalectomy technique. Demographic characteristics, perioperative information and pathological data were retrospectively collected and analyzed.ResultsThis study included 37 TLA, 117 RLA, and 87 RATLA procedures. Any two groups had comparable age, ASA score, Charlson Comorbidity Index, and preoperative hemoglobin. The tumor size for RLA patients was 2.7 ± 1.1 cm, which was significantly smaller compared to patients who underwent TLA/RATLA (p = 0.000/0.000). Operative time was similar in any two groups, while estimated blood loss was lower for RATLA group (75.6 ± 95.6 ml) compared with the TLA group (131.1 ± 204.5 ml) (p = 0.041). Conversion to an open procedure occurred in only one (2.7%) patient in the TLA group for significant adhesion and hemorrhage. There were no significant differences between groups in terms of transfusion rate and complication rate. Length of stay was shorter for the RATLA group versus the TLA/RLA group (p = 0.000/0.029). In all groups, adrenocortical adenoma and pheochromocytoma were the most frequent histotypes.ConclusionsMinimally invasive adrenalectomy is associated with expected excellent outcomes. In our study, the RATLA approach appears to provide the benefits of decreased estimated blood loss and length of stay. Robotic adrenalectomy appears to be a safe and effective alternative to conventional laparoscopic adrenalectomy.

Project description:BackgroundThe comparative advantages of robotic posterior retroperitoneal adrenalectomy (RPRA) over laparoscopic posterior retroperitoneal adrenalectomy (LPRA) remain a topic of ongoing debate within the medical community. This systematic literature review and meta-analysis aim to assess the safety and efficacy of RPRA compared to LPRA, with the ultimate goal of determining which procedure yields superior clinical outcomes.MethodsA systematic search was conducted on databases including PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and the Cochrane Library database to identify relevant studies, encompassing both randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and non-RCTs, that compare the outcomes of RPRA and LPRA. The primary focus of this study was to evaluate perioperative surgical outcomes and complications. Review Manager 5.4 was used for this analysis. The study was registered with PROSPERO (ID: CRD42023453816).ResultsA total of seven non-RCTs were identified and included in this study, encompassing a cohort of 675 patients. The findings indicate that RPRA exhibited superior performance compared to LPRA in terms of hospital stay (weighted mean difference [WMD] -0.78 days, 95% confidence interval [CI] -1.46 to -0.10; p = 0.02). However, there were no statistically significant differences observed between the two techniques in terms of operative time, blood loss, transfusion rates, conversion rates, major complications, and overall complications.ConclusionRPRA is associated with a significantly shorter hospital stay compared to LPRA, while demonstrating comparable operative time, blood loss, conversion rate, and complication rate. However, it is important to note that further research of a more comprehensive and rigorous nature is necessary to validate these findings.Systematic review registrationhttps://www.crd.york.ac.uk/prospero/display_record.php?RecordID=453816, identifier CRD42023453816.

Project description:ObjectiveTo explore the advantages and disadvantages of robot-assisted laparoscopic adrenalectomy compared with retroperitoneal laparoscopic adrenalectomy.MethodsA total of 101 patients with adrenal tumors who received retroperitoneal laparoscopic adrenalectomy (RLA) (n=75) or robot-assisted laparoscopic adrenalectomy (RARLA) (n=26) in our hospital from January 2021 to December 2021 were retrospectively collected. Patients' demographics, tumor characteristics, and perioperative indicators were compared. Statistical analysis was performed using t-test for continuous variables and Pearson chi-square test or Fisher's exact test for categorical variables.ResultsWe found that blood loss in the RARLA group was significantly less than that in the RLA group (66.9 ± 35.5 ml vs 91.5 ± 66.1 ml, p = 0.020). Gastrointestinal function recovery time in RARLA group was significantly less than that in RLA group (19.9 ± 6.9 hours vs 32.0 ± 9.0 hours, p < 0.001). However, the operation time, drainage tube placement time, post-operative hospital stay in the RARLA group were significantly longer compared with the RLA group (149.6 ± 53.4 mins vs 118.7 ± 41.2 mins, p = 0.003; 4.9 ± 2.0 days vs 3.6 ± 1.1 days, p = 0.004; 6.4 ± 1.8 days vs 4.6 ± 1.6 days, p < 0.001). The hospitalization expense in the RARLA group is significantly higher than that in the RLA group (59284 ± 8724 RMB¥ vs 39785 ± 10126 RMB¥, p < 0.001). We found that there was no significant difference in the incidence of postoperative complications between the two groups. However, the pathological types of the two groups were significantly different. Patients in the RLA group had a higher proportion of adrenocortical adenoma, while patients in the RARLA group had a higher proportion of pheochromocytoma.ConclusionCompared with traditional laparoscopic adrenalectomy, robot-assisted laparoscopic adrenalectomy can significantly reduce intraoperative blood loss and accelerate postoperative gastrointestinal recovery. It is committed to studying how to reduce the hospitalization time and hospitalization cost of RARLA, which can make RARLA more widely used.

Project description:ObjectivesTo investigate the outcome and safety of retroperitoneal laparoscopic partial adrenalectomy in the treatment of nonfunctional unilateral adrenal tumors in the day surgery mode.MethodsNineteen patients bearing nonfunctional unilateral 20-40 mm adrenal tumors were prospectively enrolled and underwent retroperitoneal laparoscopic partial adrenalectomy in the day surgery unit of our hospital between June 2021 and March 2022. All patients were diagnosed with non-functional adrenal tumors as outpatients before being admitted to the day surgery unit with their consent. Patient demographics and perioperative data were prospectively documented. The patients were followed up by telephone on day 1, 3 and 7 after discharge and followed up for 6 months.ResultsThe patient's age was 50.5 ± 11.9 yr (range from 19.0 - 69.0). Seven patients were female. Twelve patients underwent surgery on the left side. The maximal diameter of tumor was 28.3 ± 5.7 mm (20.0 - 40.0 mm). Operation time was 72.1 ± 14.9 min (58.0 - 120.0 min). Mean blood loss was 64.7 ± 50.4 ml (30.0 - 200.0 ml). The gastrointestinal function recovery time was 9.7 ± 2.6 h (6.0 - 16.0 h). Retroperitoneal drainage was removed 24.8 ± 13.3 h (range 18.0 - 72.0) after surgery. Four patients were transferred to the general ward for postoperative management, while others were discharged within 24 hours after surgery. Length of hospital stay was 48.8 ± 13.1 h (38.0 - 85.0h). Hospitalization expense was 24168.4 ± 2910.3 RMB¥ (20844.3 - 34369.8 RMB¥). Postoperative pathology revealed 17 cortical adenoma, 1 pheochromocytoma and 1 lymphatic duct tumor.ConclusionRetroperitoneal laparoscopic partial adrenalectomy for nonfunctional unilateral adrenal tumors in the day surgery mode is safe when strict selection criteria and perioperative management protocol are followed, which has the potential to shorten length of hospital stay and reduce lower hospitalization costs.

Project description:ObjectiveTo compare the efficiency and safety of the transperitoneal approaches with retroperitoneal approaches in laparoscopic partial nephrectomy for renal cell carcinoma and provide evidence-based medicine support for clinical treatment.MethodsA systematic computer search of PUBMED, EMBASE, and the Cochrane Library was executed to identify retrospective observational and prospective randomized controlled trials studies that compared the outcomes of the two approaches in laparoscopic partial nephrectomy. Two reviewers independently screened, extracted, and evaluated the included studies and executed statistical analysis by using software STATA 12.0. Outcomes of interest included perioperative and postoperative variables, surgical complications and oncological variables.ResultsThere were 8 studies assessed transperitoneal laparoscopic partial nephrectomy (TLPN) versus retroperitoneal laparoscopic partial nephrectomy (RLPN) were included. RLPN had a shorter operating time (SMD = 1.001,95%confidence interval[CI] 0.609-1.393,P<0.001), a lower estimated blood loss (SMD = 0.403,95%CI 0.015-0.791,P = 0.042) and a shorter length of hospital stay (WMD = 0.936 DAYS,95%CI 0.609-1.263,P<0.001) than TLPN. There were no significant differences between the transperitoneal and retroperitoneal approaches in other outcomes of interest.ConclusionsThis meta-analysis indicates that, in appropriately selected patients, especially patients with intraperitoneal procedures history or posteriorly located renal tumors, the RLPN can shorten the operation time, reduce the estimated blood loss and shorten the length of hospital stay. RLPN may be equally safe and be faster compared with the TLPN.

Project description:BackgroundRobotic-assisted laparoscopic pyeloplasty (RALP) has been gaining acceptance among paediatric urologists.ObjectiveTo compare surgical variables and clinical outcomes, including complications and success rate, with RALP using the transperitoneal (T-RALP) and retroperitoneal (R-RALP) approaches.Design setting and participantsWe performed a multicentre, prospective, cohort study (NCT03274050) between November 2016 and October 2021 in three paediatric urology teaching centres (transperitoneal approach, n = 2; retroperitoneal approach, n = 1). The diagnosis of ureteropelvic junction obstruction (UPJO) was confirmed by renal ultrasound and mercaptoacetyltriglycine-3 renal scan or uro-magnetic resonance imaging with functional evaluation. The exclusion criteria were children <2 yr old, persistent UPJO after failed pyeloplasty, and horseshoe and ectopic kidney.InterventionWe performed dismembered pyeloplasty using running monofilament 6-0 absorbable suture.Outcome measurements and statistical analysisWe assessed intra- and postoperative morbidity (primary outcome) and success (secondary outcome). Data were expressed as medians and interquartile range (25th and 75th percentiles) for quantitative variables, and analysed comparatively.Results and limitationsWe operated on 106 children (T-RALP, n = 53; R-RALP, n = 53). Preoperative data were comparable between groups (median age 9.1 [6.2-11.2] yr; median weight 26.8 [21-40] kg). Set-up time (10 vs 31 min), anastomotic time (49 vs 73 min), and console time (97 vs 153 min) were significantly shorter with T-RALP than with R-RALP (p < 0.001). No intraoperative complications occurred. No conversion to open surgery was necessary. The median hospital stay was longer after T-RALP (2 d) than after R-RALP (1 d; p < 0.001). Overall, postoperative complication rates were similar. No failure had occurred at the mean follow-up of 25.4 (15.1-34.7) mo.ConclusionsIn selected children, RALP is safe and effective using either the transperitoneal or the retroperitoneal approach, with a shorter hospital stay after R-RALP.Patient summaryIn our multicentre, prospective study, we compared the results and complications of robotic-assisted laparoscopic pyeloplasty (RALP) using the transperitoneal and retroperitoneal approaches. We found that RALP is safe and effective using either approach, with a shorter hospital stay after R-RALP.

Project description:BackgroundSince 2017, switching from laparoscopic transabdominal adrenalectomy (LTA), posterior retroperitoneoscopic adrenalectomy (RPA) is used as standard procedure in this institution. Aim of this retrospective study was to compare both techniques regarding operative time, length of stay and safety of the procedures.MethodsAll patients operated in our institution for adrenal tumors were prospectively documented in the EUROCRINE-database and retrospectively analyzed. Sex, age, body mass index (BMI), indication, operative time, conversion and complication rates, hospital stay and tumor-size were analyzed by Z-score, chi-square test, t-test, Mann-Whitney U test and Pearson correlation.ResultsA total of 105 RPAs and 132 LTAs were performed in an 8-year period. No difference was seen in age, sex and tumor localization. Adenoma (n=113) and pheochromocytoma (n=64) were the most common histopathological findings. Compared to the LTA group, the RPA group had significantly shorter operative time with a median of 50 (15-380) vs. 125 (25-420) min (P<0.001) and shorter hospital stay with a median of 3 vs. 9 days (P<0.001). The decrease of the median operative time in RPA group, visualizing the learning curve of the procedure, was from 60 min (2017) to 45 min (2020). Four conversions from RPA to open adrenalectomy had to be performed due to bleeding or adhesions, whereas 9 LTA procedures had to be converted due to bleeding (n=2), unclear anatomy (n=1), adhesions (n=1), difficult access (n=1) or planned conversion (n=4).ConclusionsRPA could be safely introduced with reduced operative times and shorter length of hospital stay compared to LTA.

Project description:BackgroundA direct comparison of the cost-benefit analysis of retroperitoneoscopic adrenalectomy (RPA) versus the minimally invasive transperitoneal access (LTA) approach is currently lacking. We hypothesized that RPA is more cost effective than LTA; promising significant savings for the healthcare system in an era of ever more limited resources.MethodsWe performed a monocentric retrospective observational cohort study based on data from our Endocrine Surgery Registry. Patients who were operated upon between 2019 and 2022 were included. After pair-matching, both cohorts (RPA vs. LTA) were compared for perioperative variables and treatment costs (process cost calculation), revenue and profit.ResultsTwo homogenous cohorts of 43 patients each (RPA vs. LTA) were identified following matching. Patient characteristics between the cohorts were comparable. In terms of both treatment-associated costs and profit, the RPA procedure was superior to LTA (costs: US$5789.99 for RPA vs. US$6617.75 for LTA, P = 0.043; profit: US$1235.59 for RPA vs. US$653.33 for LTA, P = 0.027). The duration of inpatient treatment and comorbidities significantly influenced the cost of treatment and the overall profit.ConclusionsRPA appears not only to offer benefits over LTA in terms of perioperative morbidity and length of hospital stay, but also has a superior financial cost/benefit profile.
