Comparison of the effect of two different routes of hysterectomy surgeries on the pulmonary function: Laparoscopic versus abdominal
semanticscholar(2020)
Abstract
Aim: We aimed to compare pre and post-operative pulmonary function between women who underwent laparoscopic or abdominal hysterectomy. Methods: We prospectively collected data between January 2015 and November 2016 at Health Sciences University Zeynep Kamil Women and Children’s Diseases Training and Research Hospital. Patients who were admitted to the Obstetrics and Gynecology clinic with a hysterectomy indication were non-randomly allocated into 2 groups as the laparoscopy group (n=24) and the open surgery group (n=26) according to patient priorities and surgeons’ preference. Patients who had already undergone an abdominal operation and systemic disorders were excluded from the study. Pulmonary function tests were assessed and compared preoperatively and at postoperative day five. Results: There were significant changes in majority of the parameters of pulmonary function test after surgery compared to baseline measurements except PaCO2, PaO2 and SaO2 levels in group of women who underwent total abdominal hysterectomy. There were significant changes in majority of the parameters of pulmonary function test after surgery compared to baseline measurements except PaCO2 levels in group of women who underwent total laparoscopic hysterectomy Conclusion: Both laparoscopic and abdominal hysterectomies were associated with deteriorated pulmonary function tests.
