AIM:To compare the laparoscopic and the open gastrectomy approaches for short term morbidity,length of hospital stay and also long term gastrointestinal symptoms.METHODS:Patients who have undergone gastrectomy had their medical records reviewed for demographic data,type of gastrectomy,short term morbidity,and length of hospital stay.Patients were contacted and asked to complete the Gastrointestinal Symptom Rating Scale(GSRS).The GSRS measures three domains of GI symptoms:Dyspepsia Syndrome(DS) for the foregut(best score 0,worse score 15),indigestion syndrome(IS) for the midgut(best score 0,worse score 12),and bowel dysfunction syndrome(BDS) for the hindgut(best score 0,worse score 16).Statistical analysis was done using the Mann-Whitney U-test.RESULTS:We had complete data on 32 patients:7 laparoscopic and 25 open.Of these,25 had a gastroenteric anastomosis and 6 did not.The table shows the results as medians with interquartile range.Laparoscopic gastrectomy had a better score than open gastrectomy in the DS domain(0 vs 1,P = 0.02),while gastrectomy without anastomosis had a better score than gastrectomy with anastomosis in the IS domain(0 vs 1,P = 0.05).CONCLUSION:Patients have little adverse gastroin-testinal symptoms and preserve good gastrointestinal function after undergoing any type of gastrectomy.Laparoscopic approach had better dyspepsia and foregut symptoms.Performing an anastomosis led to mild adverse midgut and indigestion effects
AIM: To compare the laparoscopic and the open gastrectomy approaches for short term morbidity, length of hospital stay and also long term gastrointestinal symptoms. METHODS: Patients who have undergone gastrectomy had their medical records reviewed for demographic data, type of gastrectomy, short term morbidity , and length of hospital stay. Patients were contacted and asked to complete the Gastrointestinal Symptom Rating Scale (GSRS). The GSRS measures three domains of GI symptoms: Dyspepsia Syndrome (DS) for the foregut (best score 0, worse score 15), indigestion syndrome (IS) for the midgut (best score 0, worse score 12), and bowel dysfunction syndrome (BDS) for the hindgut (best score 0, worse score 16) .Statistical analysis was done using the Mann-Whitney U-test .RESULTS: We had complete data on 32 patients: 7 laparoscopic and 25 open. Of these, 25 had a gastroenteric anastomosis and 6 did not. The table shows the results as medians with interquartile range. Laparoscopic gastrectomy had a better score than open gastrectomy in the DS domain (0 vs 1, P = 0.02), while gastrectomy without anastomosis had a better score than gastrectomy with anastomosis in the IS domain (0 vs 1, P = 0.05) .CONCLUSION: Patients have little adverse gastroin- testinal symptoms and preserve good gastrointestinal function after undergoing any type of gastrectomy. Laparoscopic approach had better dyspepsia and foregut symptoms. Cereforming an anastomosis led to mild adverse midgut and indigestion effects
