Laparoscopic surgery can be widely used in the comprehensive treatment of tumors. Beijing Cancer Hospital General Surgery successfully performed laparoscopic radical resection for an 88-year-old man. This is by far the oldest patient to be treated with laparoscopic surgery in the hospital.
It is noteworthy that Su Xiangqian, an associate professor of the Beijing Cancer Hospital General Surgery for this patient, took the lead in applying laparoscopic techniques to the comprehensive treatment of tumors in the oncology hospital. In the past two years, laparoscopic radical colorectal cancer has been successfully cured. Surgery, gastric stromal tumor resection, liver tumor resection, intraperitoneal hyperthermic perfusion chemotherapy, abdominal mass biopsy, middle and low rectal cancer radiotherapy before the transfer, cholecystectomy and castration surgery, etc., increased for cancer patients The opportunity to cure. He believes: "Laparoscopy will play an increasingly important role in the comprehensive treatment of tumors, especially in elderly patients."
■The scope of application of laparoscopic surgery is expanding
According to Associate Professor Su Xiangqian, laparoscopic technique is a great technological revolution in the field of surgery in the 20th century. Since the first French doctors used laparoscopic techniques to complete cholecystectomy in 1987, laparoscopic techniques have rapidly spread throughout the world. After nearly 20 years of development, laparoscopic techniques have been widely used in general surgery, urology and gynecology, and become the representative of minimally invasive surgery. Laparoscopic surgery in China has a history of more than ten years. From the initial cholecystectomy to the present, it has been successfully applied to the diagnosis and treatment of abdominal diseases such as stomach, colorectal, hepatobiliary and pancreas.
Laparoscopic surgery has the advantages that traditional open surgery can't compare, such as clear vision, accurate positioning; small surgical incision, less bleeding, less damage to the patient's body function, postoperative pain, no need for analgesia; postoperative patient's gastrointestinal tract Fast function recovery, short hospital stay, etc.
Laparoscopic surgery has long been recognized for the treatment of benign diseases, but for the treatment of tumors, people often doubt whether laparoscopic techniques can achieve the effect of radical cure. In this regard, Associate Professor Su Xiang explained that according to international evidence-based medical evidence, laparoscopic surgery can achieve the same level of open surgery as the scope of tumor resection, the number of lymph node dissection and the long-term survival of patients. effect. Its safety and effectiveness in the treatment of malignant tumors have been recognized at home and abroad.
