Abstract:
Object: To explore the feasibility of laparoscopic repair of congenital diaphragmatic hernia in neonates. Methods: A retrospective analysis was conduct on 14 cases of newborns with congenital diaphragmatic hernia treated by laparoscopic diaphragmatic repair or laparotomy between September 1, 2011 to December 31, 2013. Duration of operation, amount of bleeding, and length of stay were compared between the two groups, which were divided by surgical methods. Results: No significant difference was observed in duration of operation and amount of bleeding (P 〉 0.05) between the two groups. However, length of stay was significantly shorter in the patients by laparoscopic diaphragmatic repair than the patients by laparotomy ( P 〈 0.05). Conclusion: To compare laparoscopic and open repair of congenital diaphragmatic hernia in neonates, a retrospective analysis conducted by us showed the feasibility of laparoscopic repair of congenital diaphragmatic hernia in neonates, and a significant advantage in length of stay.
