ABSTRACT
STUDY OBJECTIVE:
To demonstrate a systematic approach to the laparoscopic en bloc pelvic resection with rectosigmoid resection and anastomosis as part of ovarian cancer treatment in a tertiary gynecologic surgery referral center.DESIGN:
This video illustrates an en bloc pelvic resection performed par laparoscopy in 10 steps.SETTING:
A 56-year-old patient with an advanced high-grade serous ovarian cancer extending into the rectum was amenable to primary debulking surgery in accordance with the French guidelines [1]. In diagnostic laparoscopy, a bilateral adnexectomy was performed, and the pelvic carcinomatosis was considered primarily resectable. Histopathology of the subsequent en bloc resection was consistent with stage IIB high-grade serous ovarian cancer with an indication for adjuvant chemotherapy. INTERVENTION The Hudson's procedure revisited consists of a radical monobloc excision by way of a completely extraperitoneal dissection and total mobilization of the rectum. In this case, owing to rectal invasion, we achieved a laparoscopic radical resection including rectosigmoidectomy and primary anastomosis without the need for a defunctioning stoma [2].CONCLUSION:
Traditionally, an en bloc pelvic resection with rectosigmoid resection and anastomosis was performed by laparotomy. The feasibility of performing laparoscopic optimal cytoreductive surgery in selected patients with advanced ovarian cancer was recently demonstrated without compromising survival in case of low residual disease. The prognosis depends rather on the resectability than on the operative access. However, the radicality and completeness of the cytoreduction, as well as the potential risk of tumor seeding, remain controversially discussed. Here, we demonstrate the minimally invasive approach following the same operative strategy as in open surgery. In this way, the radicality of the "en bloc resection" entailing avoidance of tumor rupture, less bleeding, and less urethral injury is combined with the benefits of a minimally invasive access. In expert hands, this procedure can be performed laparoscopically for other pelvic malignancies with peritoneal carcinomatosis.Palabras clave
