Comparison of the incidence of postoperative ileus following laparoscopic and open radical resection for gastric cancer: A Meta analysis
Abstract:Objective To compare the incidence of postoperative ileus following laparoscopic and open radical resection for gastric cancer. Methods Randomized controlled trial reports published from built this database to March 2014 were searched in the PubMed、EMBASE、OVID、Medline、China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) and Wanfang databases.Articles were identified which compared the occurrence rate of postoperative iles between laparoscopic resection and conventional open resection for gastric cancer.Data were analyzed by Rev Man5.1 software. Results Fourteen studies including 3997 cases were analyzed. A total of 2196 cases received laparoscopic surgery, of whom 18 developed postoperative ileus. There were 1801 cases underwent open surgery, of whom 46 developed early postoperative ileus. The pooled relative risk was 0.37 with a 95%confidence interval of 0.23-0.62. The difference was significant statistically (P<0.01). Conclusion Compared with open surgery, laparoscopic gastric cancer resection can reduce the incidence of postoperative early ileus.
