Overview
Several recent randomized studies have proved that laparoscopic technique is feasible, safe and has been associated with better cosmetics, less pain, faster recovery, lower incidence of infectious complications, and shorter postoperative stay. However, these advantages are not substantial for patients with malignant diseases. New published randomized trials (laparoscopic gastrectomy, colectomy, nephrectomy) have proved that long-term survival data did not show any detrimental effect of laparoscopy in comparison with historic studies of open resections.
Key words:
laparoscopy, miniinvasive treatment.
