摘要
The ideal incision for specimen extraction during laparoscopic colorectal surgery is controversial. The objective of this study was to compare incision types (Pfannenstiel, periumbilical, lower midline, and right upper quadrant transverse) with regard to postoperative scar appearance, symptoms, preference, and satisfaction. This study is a retrospective survey review performed in an urban teaching hospital. The study participants were patients undergoing multiport laparoscopic colorectal surgery. Two web-based questionnaires, the Patient Scar Assessment Questionnaire and Photo-Series Questionnaire, were used to assess study parameters. The main outcome measures were incision symptoms and cosmetic satisfaction. The 112 study patients included 54 patients with a Pfannenstiel incision (Group P) and 58 patients with an alternate incision (Group A). Of the 58 patients in Group A, 19 (33%) had a periumbilical incision, 10 (17%) a lower midline incision, and 29 (50%) a right upper quadrant transverse incision. Although Groups P and A were comparable in all five subscales of the Patient Scar Assessment Questionnaire, more Group P participants (n = 12; 22%) said their incision felt "fairly numb" than Group A participants (n = 2; 3%) (P = 0.008). There was no significant difference between study groups in all Photo-Series Questionnaire domains; however, after comparing patients' own incisions with photographs of various alternative incisions, 36 (62%) Group A patients would choose an alternative incision compared with only 11 (19%) Group P patients (P = 0.001). Selection bias, recall bias, external validity, and variability of scar lengths were the limitations of the study. It was concluded that although a Pfannenstiel incision seems to be the optimal cosmetic choice, it is associated with a higher incidence of wound numbness than alternate extraction incisions.
