| 概要 | AIMS:We previously reported no change in surgical outcomes for laparoscopic distal gastrectomy (LDG) and laparoscopic low anterior resection (LLAR) early in the COVID-19 pandemic (2020), although the number of elective surgeries decreased. In 2021, COVID-19 spread further, with vaccination and other medical measures based on several medical societies' guidelines being initiated. Using the Japanese National Clinical Database (NCD), we added 2022 data to the 2018-2021 data to analyze the impacts of expansion of the COVID-19 infection and its spread on laparoscopic surgery (including robot-assisted surgery).METHODS:Data on patients who underwent LDG and LLAR for cancer were extracted from the NCD between 2018 and 2022. The numbers of LDG and LLAR were obtained, and morbidity and mortality rates were evaluated using a standardized morbidity/mortality ratio (SMR), i.e. the ratio of the observed number of incidences to expected number of incidences calculated by the risk calculator previously developed by the NCD.RESULTS:The numbers of LDG and LLAR cases declined in 2020, the first pandemic year, and continued to decline in 2022 to the same level as 2021, but with no further decline and no recovery trend in the number of cases. Numbers of robot-assisted LDG and LLAR cases increased but at a rate lower than the prepandemic increase. Mortality and anastomotic leakage, two very important complications assessed in SMR, did not worsen during the pandemic compared to prepandemic levels.CONCLUSION:In Japan, laparoscopic surgery was safe and unaffected by the COVID-19 pandemic, even in 2022, when the epidemic spread. |
