Abstract
Introduction: Evaluating the result of laparoscopic retroperitoneal nephrectomy for benign nonfunctioning pathology at Ninh Binh General Hospital.
Materials and Methods: 20 patients underwent laparoscopic nephrectomy surgery from 08/2016 - 03/2020 at Ninh Binh General Hospital, research with descriptive and prospective method.
Results: The average operating time is 100,25 ± 22 minutes (80 - 180 minutes), the average amount of blood loss is 61,5 ± 26,6ml (30 - 100ml), the average amount of drain removal time is 2,5 ± 0,5 day (2 - 3 days), the time of taking analgesic is 3 days, the average amount of time for treatment in the hospital is 4,25 ± 1,1 days (3 - 6 days).
During the operations, there is 1 case in which renal abscess and kidney inflammation occur. Therefore, it's difficult to carry out the umbilicus dissection and have to switch to kidney – removal open surgery. There are no adverse medical events or complications after the surgery.
Conclusions: Laparoscopic retroperitoneal surgery in kidney removal due to nonfunctioning benign pathology is a safe and effective treatment method.
