AbstractPurpose: Cyst excision with hepaticojejunostomy has been the classic procedure for treating choledochal cysts. Recently, laparoscopic treatment of the disease has gained popularity worldwide. The aim of this study is to evaluate whether laparoscopic management of choledochal cysts is as feasible and safe as conventional open surgery in children with this disease. Methods: A retrospective study comparing the laparoscopic and the open procedures was performed in 77 consecutive patients with choledochal cyst in our hospital. Thirty-nine patients operated on between June 2001 and September 2003 were in the laparoscopic group, whereas 38 patients in the open group were operated on between February 1999 and May 2001. Results: Patient demographics were similar between the 2 groups. The duration of operation was significantly longer in the laparoscopic group than in the open group (median, 230 vs 190 minutes; P<< .001). In contrast, the durations of delayed oral feeding and hospital stay postoperatively were significantly shorter in the laparoscopic group (median, 4 vs 5 days [P < .01] and median, 5 vs 7 days [P < .01], respectively.) There were no differences in the early and late complication rates between the 2 groups. Conclusions: Laparoscopic treatment of choledochal cyst in children is feasible and safe. For experienced centers, this procedure can be recommended. © 2011 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
