Abstract |
The gravity of the pelvic lymphocysts after extended lymphadeno-colpo- hysterectomies for uterine cancers has been outlined in many studies and only a preventive strategy can reduce the morbidity, which is mainly of urinary order. The present technique is in line with this approach and breaches the peritonization dogma in gynaecology. After the presentation of 60 cases of extended colpo- hysterectomies with iliac lymphadenectomy and without reperitonization, the authors study the post-operative lymphorrhea and evaluate the morbidity proper to the technique by comparing their results with the literature data. The safety , the feasibility of the technique and its preventive role in the development of lymphocysts should favour its expansion in pelvic cancer surgery.
