Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This is a retrospective cohort study designed to compare the outcomes of open surgery versus laparoscopic surgery in pediatric patients diagnosed with congenital choledochal cyst (CCC). The study includes children who underwent surgery at Guangdong Medical University Affiliated Hospital and Guangzhou Women and Children's Medical Center between January 1, 2010, and September 1, 2024. The aim of this study is to evaluate and compare the surgical outcomes, including surgery duration, intraoperative blood loss, hospital stay, and postoperative complications (e.g., bile leakage and intestinal obstruction), between the two surgical approaches. The data collected from the patient records will be analyzed to identify factors influencing surgical outcomes and to guide future treatment decisions for CCC in pediatric patients.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Open Surgery Group, OSG

This group consists of pediatric patients diagnosed with congenital choledochal cyst (CCC) who underwent open surgery, which involved open cyst excision and Roux-en-Y hepaticojejunostomy. A total of 60 patients were assigned to this group.

Open Surgery

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

Open cyst excision and Roux-en-Y hepaticojejunostomy performed through a 10 cm incision

Laparoscopic Surgery Group, LSG

This group includes pediatric patients diagnosed with CCC who underwent laparoscopic surgery, which involved laparoscopic cyst excision and Roux-en-Y hepaticojejunostomy. A total of 12 patients were assigned to this group.

Laparoscopic Surgery

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

Laparoscopic cyst excision and Roux-en-Y hepaticojejunostomy performed through small incisions with a laparoscope

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

Pediatric patients diagnosed with congenital choledochal cyst based on preoperative imaging (e.g., ultrasound, computed tomography(CT), or magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography(MRCP)).

Patients who underwent either open surgery (open cyst excision and Roux-en-Y hepaticojejunostomy) or laparoscopic surgery (laparoscopic cyst excision and Roux-en-Y hepaticojejunostomy) for the treatment of congenital choledochal cyst.

Informed consent for follow-up obtained from the patient's family or legal guardian.

Exclusion Criteria

Patients lacking one or more key outcome measures, including surgery duration, hospital stay, intraoperative blood loss, incidence of postoperative bile leakage, or incidence of postoperative intestinal obstruction.

Patients with incomplete clinical data, such as missing sex, age, or other essential demographic information.

Patients with coagulation disorders that may interfere with surgery or recovery.

Patients with severe comorbidities or immune system disorders that may complicate surgical intervention or recovery.

Patients who underwent non-surgical treatment (e.g., endoscopic procedures) for congenital choledochal cyst.

Pregnant patients or those who are breastfeeding (if applicable to your study population).
