Clinical Effects of Laparoscopic Surgery in Radical Surgery for Colorectal Cancer

Abstract

Objective: To investigate the clinical application effect of laparoscopic surgery in radical surgery for colorectal cancer. Methods: 78 patients who were treated with radical surgery for colorectal cancer in a tertiary hospital during the period from January 2021 to December 2023 were selected as the study subjects in this study. According to the different surgical methods, the patients were divided into the laparoscopic surgery group (40 cases in the experimental group) and the traditional open surgery group (38 cases in the control group). The operation time, intraoperative bleeding, postoperative recovery (including postoperative anal exhaustion time, time to get out of bed, and hospitalization time), complication rate, and therapeutic effect were observed in the two groups. Results: Patients in the experimental group were better than the control group in terms of intraoperative blood loss, operation time, postoperative anal exhaust time, time to get out of bed, and postoperative hospitalization time (P < 0.05). Patients in the experimental group had significantly better treatment effects and complication rates than those in the control group (P < 0.05). Conclusion: Compared with the open group, the overall prognosis of laparoscopic colorectal cancer patients is better, and laparoscopy has a protective effect on tumor recurrence or metastasis after radical surgery for colorectal cancer, and it can reduce the incidence of postoperative abdominal infection.
