POSTER ABSTRACTS <strong>SAGES</strong> <strong>2005</strong> AIM: Controversial issues surrounding the use of laparoscopic surgery (LAP) for colorectal cancer include high conversion¡Bhigh complication rate¡Bport site recurrence and poor outcome than open surgery (OPEN) previously reported. The purpose of this single center, prospective study was to assess the oncological outcomes achieved after curative LAP for cancer. MATERIALS & METHODS: We enrolled 514 consecutive patients with colorectal cancer undergoing LAP between July 1998 and May 2004. The data were including patient profile¡Boperative complication ¡Bpathology and oncological outcome. We compared the oncologic outcomes achieved using LAP and OPEN during period from July 1998 to June 2001. Patient follow-up ranged from 36 to 72 months. The follow-up rate was 95%. We recorded the final status of all cancer patients as of June 30, 2004. RESULTS: We attempted to perform LAP in 514 patients and 14 patients (2.7%) needed conversion to open surgery. The LAP was successfully in 500 patients with 308 males and 192 females, age from 26 to 96 years, av. 64.2 years. Of the 500 LAP patients, 85 (17.0%) experienced complications & 42 (8.4%) patients had major complications that required further surgery. Major complication of LAP for rectal cancer was higher than colon cancer: 11.4% (34/298) vs. 4.0% (8/202). There were three (0.6%) operative mortality due to sepsis, CVA and hepatic failure. We examined the oncologic results achieved in 185 patients who had curative LAP between July 1998 and June 2001. The 3Y-DFS between LAP and OPEN were no difference in stage I (94.2% vs. 93.9%), stage II (79.7% vs. 73.4%), stage III (57.2% vs. 56.7%) and over-all (75.8% vs. 70.3%). There were two (0.4%) port site recurrence found in LAP patients. Conclusion: The LAP for cancer was feasible for the acceptable morbidity rate & operation time. The oncological results are encouraging and equal to OPEN. P143–Colorectal/Intestinal Surgery LAPAROSCOPIC COLORECTAL SURGERY: EARLY AND LATER EXPERIENCE, David A Vivas MD,Seong-Yeop You MD,Dan Ruiz MD,Jonathan Efron MD,Eric Weiss MD,Juan J Nogeras MD,Dana Sands MD,Anthony Vernava MD, Steven Wexner MD, Department of Colorectal Surgery, Cleveland Clinic Florida, Weston ,FL Background: The aim of this study was to compare early and more recent results of laparoscopic colorectal surgery to assess any differences in indications or procedures and any changes in results. Methods: After IRB approval, the medical records of all patients who underwent elective laparoscopic colorectal surgery between August 1991 and April 2004 were reviewed. Group I included patients operated upon between August 1991 and December 1995 (53 months), Group II included patients who were operated between January 1996 to September 1999 (45 months) and Group III included patients who underwent laparoscopic colorectal surgery between October 1999 and April 2004 (55 months). Results: 644 patients underwent elective laparoscopic colorectal surgery during this period, including 175 patients in Group I, 199 patients in Group II and 270 patients in Group III. While there were no differences among Group I, Group II and Group III relative to gender (p=NS), patients in Group II were significantly older than those of Group I [50.2 (range 15-88) versus 58.3 (range 15-89); (p = 0.05)]; there was no difference between Group II and Group III (p=NS) respect to age. Significantly more patients underwent sigmoid colectomy in Group III than in Groups I and II (24% versus 13.7% and 15.6%, respectively; p = 0.05). Interventions for diverticular disease increased significantly during this period from 10.9% in Group I, to 14.1% in Group II to 24.8% in Group III (p= 0.05). Right hemicolectomy was one of the most common procedures performed, representing 24.6%, 39.7% and 22.2% for Groups I, II and III, respectivelyç 11 procedures in Group III were ileocolic resections for Crohn’s disease. Intraoperative complications decreased significantly from Group I to Group II (16.0% versus 4.5%, respectively; p = 0.05) but remained unchanged between Group II and Group III (4.5% versus 6.66%, respectively; NS). Although the operative time decreased significantly between Group I 162 http://www.sages.org/ and II (180.5 min versus 146.0 min, respectively; p = 0.05), it increased between Group II and Group III (146.0 min versus 170.02 min, respectively; p = 0.05). Conclusion: Increasing experience in laparoscopic colorectal surgery may lead to better results as attested to by the decrease in morbidity. However, the selection of more challenging cases like sigmoid diverticulitis and ileal Crohn’s disease may be the reason for the increase in operative time. P144–Colorectal/Intestinal Surgery SHORT TIME RESULTS OF LAPAROSCOPIC COLORECTAL RESECTION BY DIFFERENT SURGEONS, Shigeki Yamaguchi PhD, Ota Mitsuyoshi MD,Masayuki Ishii MD,Hirofumi Morita MD, Shizuoka Cancer Center Purpose: The purpose of this study is to assess short term results of laparoscopic colorectal cancer resection and to clarify the difference between surgeons. Patients: One hundred thirteen colorectal cancer resection were included since 2002 September to 2004 April by surgeons. Surgeon A was tutor, B had some experience, and C, D were beginner. When B, C, D did operator, A assisted them in 80% cases. Number of patients was A: 59, B: 20, C: 22, D: 12, respectively. Results: Each tumor location was as right colon/ left colon/ rectum, A: 11/ 29/ 19, B: 7/ 9/ 4, C: 7/ 12/ 3, D: 5/ 4/ 3. Lymph node dissection was as D1/ D2/ D3, A: 2/ 16/ 41, B: 2/ 5/ 13, C: 0/ 9/ 13, D: 2/ 4/ 6. Mean BMI was A: 23.1, B: 23.6, C: 23.2, D: 22.6. Mean operating time was A: 238 minutes(128?`459), B: 227(135?`485), C: 209(136?`300), D: 204(136?`279). Each operating time of the first half and second half were A: 240?¨234 min. B: 273?¨180, C: 240?¨179, D: 234?¨174. B, C, D had shortened operating time except A. Mean blood loss count was A: 65??, B: 74, C: 45, D: 29, and no patient received blood transfusion. Three patients in group A were converted to open surgery because of blood supply insufficiency, mesorectal inflammation, and obesity. Median postoperative hospital stay was 8.0 in all groups. Postoperative complications were 1) anastomotic leakage A: 3, B: 0, C: 0, D: 0, 2) ileus A: 2, B: 1, C: 0, D:1, 3) wound infection A: 1, B: 1, C: 1, D:0. Conclusion: Because of making operating team and assisting beginner surgeon, operating time and blood loss were no difference between all surgeons. P145–Colorectal/Intestinal Surgery LAPAROSCOPIC APPROACH TO A JEJUNAL STROMAL TUMOR., Nihat Yavuz MD, Abdullah As MD,Fatih Aydogan MD,Sabri Erguney MD,Osman Tortum MD, Istanbul University,Cerrahpasa Medical School,General Surgery Department Introduction: Small bowel tumors are rarely seen and are difficult to diagnose.As other small bowell tumors,they lead to either obstruction or haemorrhage.In recent years with the introduction of capsule endoscopy procedure,their preoperative recognation has become possible. Materyal-Method: We report here a 61 years old woman with a jejunal tumor which led to an acute lower gastrointestinal haemorrhage. She had two more episodes of bleeding in the last year. All investigations including upper and lower gastrointestinal endoscopies, abdominal CT scan and enteroclysis performed in this period could not detect any source of bleeding. Following the last haemorrhage a capsule endoscopy was realized,which evidenced a 3 cm ulcerated polypoid mass in the proximal jejunum. In laparoscopic exploration,the tumor was seen in the jejunum,20 cm distal to Treitz ligament. Laparoscopic assisted segmentary jejunal resection was performed. The corresponding mesentary was dissected with the use of LigaSure Vessel Sealing System(LVSS) intracorporally,the specimen was exteriorized through a small insicion of 4 cm length and the jejunal anastomosis was performed extracorporally. Results: The operation time was 120 minutes.The oral intake was begun on the 3th postoperative day and patient was discharged the day after.No any postoperative complication was seen.Histopathological exam revealed a malignant stromal
POSTER ABSTRACTS tumor. Discussion: Gastrointestinal stromal tumors represent a considerable part of small bowel tumors. Total resection of the tumor with clean surgical margins is adequate surgical treatment. This procedure can be performed with laparoscopic assistance,and may be an alternative to its open counterpart . P146–Education/Outcomes TASK DECONSTRUCTION FOR TRAINING ON A LAPARO- SCOPIC VIRTUAL REALITY SIMULATOR, R Aggarwal MD, J Hance MD,S Saso,A Tully,A Darzi MD, Department of Surgical Oncology & Technology, Imperial College London, UK. Introduction: Virtual reality simulation has been shown to be beneficial for training in basic and advanced laparoscopic skills. One of the proposed benefits of training on a VR simulator is the ability to deconstruct a procedure into a series of component tasks and skills. This study aims to establish the level of deconstruction that delivers the optimal task-based approach to achieve proficiency in laparoscopic suturing. Methods: 30 laparoscopic novices trained on a laparoscopic VR simulator (MIST-VR) in a stepwise approach commencing with a previously validated basic skills curriculum. They were then randomised into three groups to train over five half-hour sessions on the VR laparoscopic suturing module of MIST-VR. The simulator breaks down training into a series of 12 tasks, the last two enabling practice at performing a complete laparoscopic suture. Group A performed all 10 constituent tasks, Group B the three most complex constituent tasks, and Group C practiced laparoscopic suturing without task breakdown. Assessments of laparoscopic suturing skill were carried out at the beginning and end of each subject’s training period, using a synthetic bowel model placed in a video trainer. Each subject’s performance was scored objectively using a validated motion analysis system, together with blinded checklist scoring of videos of each procedure. Data analysis used non-parametric tests, p
