Zusammenfassung: | This study aimed to investigate the short-term postoperative outcomes of reduced-port laparoscopic distal gastrectomy and demonstrate its safety and feasibility in overweight and obese patients with gastric cancer. The medical records of 211 patients who underwent reduced-port laparoscopic distal gastrectomy, between August 2014 and April 2020, were reviewed. After propensity score matching, they were divided into a non-overweight group (n = 68) and overweight group (n = 68). Operative details and short-term surgical outcomes were compared between two groups. Reduced-port laparoscopic distal gastrectomy in overweight group showed statistically longer operation time (200.59 vs. 208.68 min, p = 0.044), higher estimated bleeding volume (40.96 vs. 58.01 mL, p = 0.001), and lesser number of harvested lymph nodes (36.81 vs. 32.13, p = 0.039). However, no significant differences were found in hospital course and other surgical outcomes. There was no mortality in either group, and the postoperative morbidity rate was not significantly different (14.7% vs. 16.2%). In the subgroup analysis, overweight and obesity did not significantly affect postoperative complication rates (16.2% vs. 16.2%, p = 1). We demonstrated comparable short-term surgical outcomes of reduced-port laparoscopic distal gastrectomy between the two groups (p = 0.412~1). Reduced-port laparoscopic distal gastrectomy was safe in overweight and obese patients with gastric cancer. |
