Clinical Effect Analysis of Laparoscopic Nerve-Sparing Radical Hysterectomy in Patients with Early-Stage Cervical Cancer

Abstract

Background: There is much controversy about the utility of open and laparoscopic surgery procedures for cervical cancer following the Laparoscopic Approach to Cervical Cancer (LACC) trial. The main objective of this study was to determine the utility of laparoscopic nerve-sparing radical hysterectomy (LNSRH) in improvement of postoperative bladder and rectal function and clinical outcomes of patients with common types of early-stage cervical cancer and tumor diameters 0.05). The overall time of operation for LNSRH was longer than that for ARH (p 0.05). Conclusions: Laparoscopic nerve-sparing radical hysterectomy is beneficial for patients with common types of early-stage cervical cancer and small tumors. The procedure effectively improves bladder and rectal function after surgery and promotes rapid recovery with no adverse effects on survival outcomes.
