Colitis ulcerosa minimálisan invazív sebészi kezelése – hosszú távú eredmények

Abstract

Introduction: For the surgical treatment of ulcerative colitis, laparoscopy is used more widely, but less data are available on long-term results in Hungary. Aim: The aim of the authors was to compare the mean 47.8-month follow-up results of patients treated with conventional and minimally invasive surgical methods. Method: Between January 1, 2005 and December 31, 2014, 56 patients were treated with surgery (20 emergencies, and 36 elective cases). Laparoscopy was used in 33 and conventional method in 23 cases. Results: There was no difference between the two groups in hospital and intensive care unit stay, bowel function recovery, need for transfusion, and complications during the perioperative period. Regarding long-term complications, the occurrence of intestinal obstruction, septic condition and other complications were significantly fewer in the laparoscopy group. The quality of life improved in both groups after the surgery. Conclusions: Laparoscopy can be used safely; it provides good quality of life and better cosmetic results, and the long-term rate of complications is lower as compared to open surgery. Orv.
