ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Contemporary 3D platforms have overcome past deficiencies. Available trainee and laboratory studies suggest stereoscopic imaging improves performance but there is little clinical data or studies assessing specialists. We aimed to determine whether stereoscopic (3D) laparoscopic systems reduce operative time and number of intraoperative errors during specialist-performed laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC).METHODS:
A parallel arm (11) randomised controlled trial comparing 2D and 3D passive-polarised laparoscopic systems in day-case LC using was performed. Eleven consultant surgeons that had each performed > 200 LC (including > 10 3D LC) participated. Cases were video recorded and a four-point difficulty grade applied. The primary outcome was overall operative time. Subtask time and the number of intraoperative consequential errors as identified by two blinded assessors using a hierarchical task analysis and the observational clinical human reliability analysis technique formed secondary endpoints.RESULTS:
112 patients were randomised. There was no difference in operative time between 2D and 3D LC (2314 min (± 1052) vs. 2017 (± 910), absolute difference - 14.6%, p = 0.148) although 3D surgery was significantly quicker in difficulty grade 3 and 4 cases (3023 min (± 924), vs. 1802 (± 756), p < 0.001). No differences in overall error count was seen (total 47, median 1, range 0-4 vs. 45, 1, 0-3, p = 0.62) although there were significantly fewer 3D gallbladder perforations (15 vs. 6, p = 0.034).CONCLUSION:
3D laparoscopy did not reduce overall operative time or error frequency in laparoscopic cholecystectomies performed by specialist surgeons. 3D reduced Calot's dissection time and operative time in complex cases as well as the incidence of iatrogenic gallbladder perforation (NCT01930344).Palabras clave
