summary

The spleen is an important organ of the human body, it plays a vital role in our body, so sometimes the diseases on the spleen need timely treatment, let's talk about the difference between laparoscopic splenectomy and splenectomy.

What is the difference between laparoscopic splenectomy and splenectomy

First, in addition to cirrhotic splenomegaly, laparoscopic splenectomy only needs three to four holes to complete, which minimizes the incidence of traditional incision infection and incisional hernia. Secondly, the field of vision is wide and clear, the operation field is clear and clear, which can avoid the damage of the surrounding organs to the maximum extent. Moreover, laparoscopic splenectomy can reach the narrow space around the spleen, and the splenectomy can be successfully completed only by handling the arteriovenous vessels in and out of the splenic hilum, which makes laparoscopic splenectomy very safe.

Second: compared with open surgery, laparoscopic splenectomy has obvious advantages: small incision, beautiful, can reduce the incidence of incision infection and incisional hernia to the minimum. It can avoid the injury of the tail of pancreas, stomach and splenic flexure of colon. Laparoscopic splenectomy can reach the narrow space around the spleen, enlarge the local field of vision, and is easier to handle the spleen colon ligament, spleen stomach ligament, spleen diaphragmatic ligament and spleen kidney ligament than open surgery. In addition, splenectomy only needs to deal with the arteriovenous vessels in and out of the splenic hilum, which makes the operation of laparoscopic splenectomy have obvious advantages over open surgery.

Third: indications and contraindications of laparoscopic splenectomy: in principle, all patients who are suitable for open splenectomy have the indications of laparoscopic splenectomy. However, considering the patient's tolerance to operation time, bleeding and other risks, as well as economic tolerance, such as poor general condition, which can not be corrected or improved after preoperative treatment, and severe heart, lung, liver and kidney diseases, the operation should be contraindicated;
