Abstract
OBJECTIVE
To explore the effects of laparoscopic myomectomy and open surgery on the postoperative inflammatory responses, endocrine statuses, and prognoses of uterine myoma patients.
METHODS
Uterine myoma patients (n=126) admitted to the Department of Gynecology in our hospital were recruited as the study cohort and divided into an observation group (n=63), and a control group (n=63). The patients in the observation group underwent laparoscopic myomectomies, and the patients in the control group underwent open surgery. The completion times, intraoperative blood loss volumes, postoperative hospital stay durations, postoperative exhaust times, preoperative and postoperative immune function, inflammatory factors, sex hormone levels, postoperative complications, and prognoses were observed.
RESULTS
The observation group showed shorter hospital stays, lower intraoperative blood loss volumes, and shorter postoperative exhaust times (P<0.001). After the surgery, CD3+%, CD4+%, and CD4+%/CD8+% were decreased, but the CD8+% was increased in the two groups (all P<0.01). The observation group had higher CD3+%, CD4+% and CD4+%/CD8+%, and lower CD8+% than the control group (all P<0.001). The C-reactive protein, TNF-α, and IL-6 levels were higher after the surgery in the two groups (all P<0.05), but the observation group had lower levels (all P<0.001). The follicle-stimulating hormone and luteinizing hormone levels were lower, but the estradiol levels were higher in the observation group compared to the levels in the control group (all P<0.001). The total number of complications in the observation group was significantly lower than it was in the control group (P<0.05).
CONCLUSION
Laparoscopic myomectomy contributes to quick recoveries and short hospital stays, reduces the postoperative inflammatory response and immunosuppression, has little effect on the postoperative sex hormone levels, and has a low incidence of complications. It is worthy of clinical application.
