Résumé
INTRODUCTION: In to respect the principles of oncological surgery and to reduce the operative morbidity, the authors of this study propose to find the proper place of the laparoscopic-assisted vaginal hysterectomy in the surgery of endometrial carcinomas. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Between the 1st of June 2002 and 31 of May 2005, we realize a retrospective and comparative study for 36 laparoscopic-assisted vaginal hysterectomy and 20 laparotomies concerning 56 patients. RESULTS: In primary stages (stages I and II of FIGO), laparoscopic assisted vaginal hysterectomy is as powerful as the laparotomy whereas in more advanced stages, laparotomy was more complete and effective (p=0,07). One conversion case was observed (2.8%) in a context of peritoneal carcinosis (stage IIIc). There was not statistically significant difference about the operatives complications (p = 0.51). On the other hand, the postoperative comfort was so far better in the laparoscopic-assisted vaginal hysterectomy group (p=0.0002). The average delay of followed without relapses was 22,3 months in the laparoscopic-assisted vaginal hysterectomy group versus 23 months in the laparotomy group (p=0.51). CONCLUSION: Considering these results, the authors retain that, in primary stages (I-II, FIGO), laparoscopic-assisted vaginal hysterectomy represents a real option in the surgery of endometrial carcinoma. On the other hand, the advanced stages should be reserved for laparotomy.
