ObjectiveTo investigate the clinical effect and safety of pediatric Meckel′s diverticulum resection by complete laparoscopic technique. MethodsThe clinical data of 28 patients underwent pediatric Meckel′s diverticulum resection by complete laparoscopic technique were retrospectively analyzed. Of them, 21 cases were definitely diagnosed by preoperative transabdominal gastrointestinal ultrasonic detection and 99mTc isotope examination, the rest 7 cases were definitely diagnosed during operation. ResultsAll 28 patients successfully underwent intestinal resection and anastomosis by complete laparoscope without conversion to the open surgery during operation. The operation duration was 60 minutes to 140 minutes, with the average of (85±35) minutes. All patients underwent a fluid diet on the 5th day after operation, and were discharged from hospital 6 to 8 days after operation, without complications. The patients were followed up for 2 to 29 (10±8) months without complications like anastomotic stenosis, intestinal fistula, or adhesive intestinal obstruction, etc. ConclusionIt is of safety and feasibility to conduct pediatric Meckel′s diverticulum resection by complete laparoscopic technique, which has the advantages of minimally invasive, fast recovery, less complications, and small scars, etc.
