Abstract
Background: While laparoscopic abdominal surgery has many benefits, the results of past studies regarding the rate of complications after surgery using different laparoscopic approaches are contradictory. According to the different results of previous studies, we have prospectively investigated pot-related complications in laparoscopic abdominal surgeries in the Iranian population.
Methods: This study was conducted as a prospective cohort. Number of 346 patients candidates for abdominal surgery using the laparoscopy technique referred to tertiary hospital were included in the study based on the inclusion criteria. Demographic information about the patients (age, gender, and underlying disease) and information related to surgery and complications related to the port were examined and recorded by the surgeons for six months after surgery.
Results: In this study, 346 patients were examined. The mean age of patients was 44.34 ± 11.80 years, ranging from 16 to 77 years. 206 (59.5%) were women, and 140 (40.5%) were men. Out of 346 operated patients, 129 patients (37.3%) had cholecystectomy, 117 patients (33.8%) had bariatric surgery, and 71 patients (20.5%) had herniorrhaphy. Port-related complications were seen in 11 patients (3.2%). Port site infection was diagnosed in 10 patients (2.9%). An incisional hernia was diagnosed in one patient (0.3%). There was no port site bleeding, omentum injury, or other possible port-related complications.
Conclusion: Although laparoscopic surgery is safe, requires sufficient expertise, training, and appropriate equipment. In this study Port-related complications of Iranian population have been reported to compare with others.
