title: [Application of laparoscopic technique in the treatment of traumatic colorectal perforation].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To explore the efficacy and the security of laparoscopic technique in patients with traumatic colorectal perforation.
  
  
  METHODS
  Clinical data of 42 patients with traumatic colorectal perforation in our hospital during March of 2005 to March of 2013 were retrospectively analyzed. Twenty-two patients received traditional open operation, and 20 patients received laparoscopic treatment.
  
  
  RESULTS
  As compared to open group, laparoscopic group had shorter operation time [(72 ± 36) min vs. (128 ± 52) min], less blood loss during operation [(21.2 ± 3.6) ml vs. (62.6 ± 8.8) ml], faster postoperative bowel function return[(1.7 ± 0.6) d vs. (3.5 ± 1.2) d], shorter hospital stay after operation [(7.3 ± 1.8) d vs. (13.6 ± 3.9) d], and lower incidence of postoperative complication [35.0% (7/20) vs. 72.7% (16/22)]. The differences between two were statistically significant (all P<0.05).
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Laparoscopic operation has advantages in the treatment of traumatic colorectal perforation with short operation time, small trauma, rapid recovery and low incidence of complications.
