The study confirmed that laparoscopic caudate lobectomy (LCB) is safe and feasible for selected patients when performed by experienced surgeons. In the LCB group, intraoperative blood loss was significantly less than in the OCB group, and there was a tendency of lower rates of respiratory infection post-operatively. LCB also had a shorter post-operative hospital stay than OCB, although the hospitalization cost was higher.
Background To date, laparoscopic caudate lobectomy (LCB) remains a challenge, and evidence about its value is rare. Therefore, this study was performed to assess the benefits of LCB for patients with tumours located in the caudate lobe compared with open caudate lobectomy (OCB). Methods From October 2015 to June 2019, 102 patients meeting the inclusion and exclusion criteria were eligible for this study. The patients were divided into LCB and OCB groups. Short-term outcomes between the groups were compared with propensity score matching (PSM). Results LCB was performed in 31 of the 102 included patients. After PSM, 30 patients with well-balanced baseline levels were enrolled in each group. Intraoperative blood loss in the LCB group was less than that in the OCB group (median, 100 versus 200 mL, P = 0.017), even though it did not reach a statistically significant difference after PSM (median, 100 versus 187.5 mL, P = 0.085). Moreover, although post-operative overall complications were similar in the two groups, a tendency of lower rates of respiratory infection in the LCB group than the OCB group was observed (0% versus 12.7%, P = 0.054 before PSM; 0% versus 16.7%, P = 0.063 after PSM). There was no early mortality in either group. LCB had a shorter post-operative hospital stay than OCB (median, 5 versus 6 days, P < 0.001). However, the hospitalization cost was higher in the LCB group than in the OCB group (P < 0.001). Conclusion LCB is safe and feasible in selected patients when performed by experienced surgeons.
