title: [Influence of previous abdominopelvic surgery on gynecological laparoscopic operation].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To investigate the influence of previous abdominopelvic surgery on gynecological laparoscopic operation.
  
  
  METHODS
  A retrospective analysis of 3 283 cases of gynecological diseases by laparoscopic operation patients in Peking University First Hospital from 2007 January to 2012 December, among them, 719 (21.90%) patients with previous abdominopelvic surgery history (study Group), 2 564 (78.10%)patients have no history of abdominopelvic surgery (control group). Study group 719 patients, previous operation times: one time in 525 cases, 194 cases were multiple; previous operation: 185 cases of gynecological surgery, 305 cases of obstetric surgery, 108 cases of general surgery, and 121 complex surgery (include at least two kinds of surgery); previous operative approach: 650 cases laparotomy and 69 cases laparoscopy. Compared two groups of patients with abdominopelvic adhesion and the gynecologic laparoscopic operation situation, analyzed the influence of previous abdominopelvic surgery on abdominopelvic adhesion on and gynecological laparoscopic operation.
  
  
  RESULTS
  The incidence of abdominopelvic adhesion in the patients with previous abdominopelvic surgery was 51.2% (368/719), which was significantly higher than that of 8.2% (211/2 564)in patients without previous abdominopelvic surgery (P < 0.01). But the study group score (median 3) and the degree of abdominopelvic adhesion [mild 49.7% (183/368), moderate 36.1% (133/368), severe 14.1% (52 /368)] compared with the control group score (median 2) and degree [mild 55.0% (116/211), moderate 25.6% (54/211), and severe 19.4% (41/211)] were no statistical difference (P = 0.930, P = 0.684). Super-umbilical primary trocar site were chosen more common in patients with previous abdominopelvic surgery (23.1%, 166/719) was significantly higher than that in the control group (3.3% , 85/2 564;P < 0.01). And the rate of conversion to laparotomy was 0.6% (4/719) significantly more than the control groups (0.1%, 2/2 564; P = 0.023). Compared with other groups, patients with gynecological or complex surgery or multiple operation history presented more severe abdominopelvic adhesion both in the score and degree (P < 0.01). The rate of super-umbilical primary trocar site, hospitalization time, operation time and bleeding during operation in patients with multiple operation history were significantly higher than those with single operation history (P < 0.05); the rate of blood transfusion, postoperative complication and conversion to laparotomy showed no statistical difference between the two groups (P > 0.05).
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  The laparoscopic operation could be carried out successfully and safely in patients with a history of various abdominopelvic operations, but the conversion rate increases, for patients with a history of multiple operation because of pelvic adhesion increases the difficulty of the laparoscopic operation.
