简要总结
This study aims to compare the outcomes of patients who undergo single-port laparoscopic colectomy and conventional laparoscopic colectomy for colonic neoplasia (large polyp not amenable to endoscopic removal/ cancer) through a randomized controlled trial. After informed consent, patients will be randomized to have either conventional or single-port laparoscopic colectomy by a team of surgeons with good experience in laparoscopic colorectal surgery. Patients' demographic, operative detail and post-operative outcomes including operating time, blood loss, complications, pain score, analgesic requirement, resumption of gastrointestinal function and length of hospital stay will be recorded prospectively. The patients will be blinded to the type of treatment that they have received during the first three days after operation (post-operative pain and analgesic requirement will be recorded in these period). Patients will have long term up to record for cancer recurrence and survival.
The results of two groups of patients will be compared scientifically to assess if single-incision laparoscopic colectomy results in any difference in outcomes when compared to conventional laparoscopic colectomy.
详细描述
Conventionally laparoscopic surgery requires multiple abdominal wall incision for placement of ports and laparoscopic instrument to perform the operation. With the advancement of technology, laparoscopic surgery can now be performed through one special port which can accommodate several laparoscopic instruments to perform the operation and hence, require only one small 2-3cm incision through the umbilicus. This is commonly named as Single-incision Laparoscopic Surgery (SILS) or single-port laparoscopic surgery.
Compared to conventional laparoscopic surgery, SILS has the advantage of further reduction of post-operative wound pain because of only one small abdominal incision is required. The cosmetic result from SILS is also better because the only incision is made through the umbilicus which can hide the wound effectively after operation. After complete healing of the umbilical wound, the patient's abdomen could be visually 'scarless'.
There has been no study to compare the results of the new single-port laparoscopic colectomy to the conventional laparoscopic colectomy in the literature yet. In order to decide if this new technique should be recommended to more patients for treatment of colonic neoplasia, a formal study is required. We designed a patient blinded randomized controlled trial to investigate if there is any difference between these two laparoscopic colectomies.
The primary outcome to be measured is post-operative pain on coughing and analgesia consumption. The patients will be blinded to the type of treatment that they have received during the first three days after operation. During these three days, the post-operative pain score and analgesic requirement will be recorded independently by the Pain team who is also blinded to the type of procedure.
The secondary to be measured include operating time, blood loss, morbidities and mortality, cancer recurrence and patient survival in long term. The secondary outcomes will also be recorded prospectively and compared.

结局指标
主要结局
Post-operative pain on coughing
时间窗: The first three days after operation
The patients will be blinded to the type of treatment that they have received during the first three days after operation. During these three days, the post-operative pain score on coughing and analgesic requirement will be recorded independently by the Pain team of Department of Anesthesia who is also blinded to the type of procedure.
次要结局
- Operative blood loss and transfusion(Immediate peri-operative period)
- Operative morbidities and 30 days mortality(30 days after operation)
- Length of hospital stay(Time from operation to discharge)
- Recurrence and survival for cancer patient(The expected time frame of follow up is 2 year and 5 five after operation)
