For tumor surgery, the meaning of minimally invasive is more abundant.
The first is the beautiful cut.
There are several 1cm puncture holes in the abdomen, and several 5cm incisions for taking specimens. Some of them do not even take specimens (the specimens are taken through the natural cavity), which is much more beautiful than traditional surgical incisions of 10 or 20 cm. The beauty is only its appearance, it has many other potential advantages.
The effect of tumor treatment is much better than before. After treatment, most patients have a long survival period, which will inevitably make patients require a higher quality of life. Beautiful wounds are particularly important for patients’ mental health, because patients can only see the body surface Wounds. Just as Dr. Zong often said to lower-level doctors: "Whether the operation is done well depends on how well the wound is stitched up!" "Of course, this is just a joke to urge young doctors to seriously deal with every aspect of the operation. The more profound meaning is that beautiful wounds are an eternal gift left by surgeons to patients.
Secondly, it's not just the beautiful cut.
First, the small incision brings about a significant reduction in postoperative pain. Pain is considered to be the fifth vital sign in addition to body temperature, heart rate, breathing, and blood pressure. The postoperative systemic stress response caused by pain affects postoperative recovery; Postoperative pain delays the time for patients to get out of bed, slows down the recovery time of gastrointestinal function, and increases the chance of infection of lungs and other organs…
Second, the development of minimally invasive surgery greatly depends on the development of instruments. Now 4K high-definition display has been used in laparoscopic surgery. During the operation, you can see that even if you open the patient’s belly and stretch your head into the belly, you can’t see it. To the fine structure. With the development and application of 8K or more K in the future, the microscopic level structure can be seen during the operation. It is conceivable that the accuracy of the operation will be greatly improved in many aspects.
There are other benefits of small incisions.
The first step in traditional surgery to open the belly is to explore. After we make a nearly 20cm long incision in the patient's abdomen, we have to take a closer look at all the organs in the belly. Observe if there is any transfer, whether it can be cut off, and how to design a surgical plan.
Sometimes it is discovered that the tumor is already in the advanced stage and cannot be removed, and the stomach is directly closed again. This is called "switching surgery". It seems simple to open and close, but it is extremely traumatic to the patient, and it feels like having a major operation. With laparoscopic exploration, only a small hole in the belly can be used to see the situation in the belly with a camera. If surgery is not possible, only one hole will be left, and chemotherapy and other treatments can be started earlier. This process is also called diagnostic laparoscopic technique.
In the traditional concept of minimally invasive, it seems that minimally invasive is a small incision or no incision, but the meaning of modern minimally invasive surgery is far more than just a small incision. It contains more meanings such as reducing the difficulty of the operation, making the operation more accurate, combining diagnosis and treatment, accelerating recovery, and improving the quality of life after surgery.
