Objective  To evaluate short-term effect of laparoscopic and open Miles operations for lower rectal carcinoma. Methods  A total of 119 patients with lower rectal carcinoma were retrospectively collected from March 2012 to March 2017 in this hospital, among which 65 were in the laparoscopic operation group and 54 in the open operation group. The perioperative data, pathological results, recovery courses, and complications were compared between the two groups. Results  Compared with the open operation group, the laparoscopic group showed a longer operation time (t=6.035, P=0.002), quicker bowel function recovery (t=4.919, P<0.001), faster off-bed activity (t=2.221, P<0.001), and shorter hospital stay time (t=3.795, P=0.025). The intraoperative blood loss (t=0.154, P=0.698) and the number of harvested lymph nodes (t=0.532, P=0.595) were similar between the two groups. The laparoscopic operation group showed a significant lower total complication rate (χ2=7.174, P=0.009) as compared with the open operation group, but the incision infection, urinary tract injury, lung infection, thrombosis of lower extremities, etc. had no significant differences between the two groups (P>0.050). Conclusion  Laparoscopic Miles operation improves postoperative recovery and reduces postoperative complications as compared with open approach in treatment of lower rectal cancer, with similar oncological and short-term results.
