Resumen Describimos la experiencia quirúrgica de diez pacientes sometidas a linfadenectomía paraaórtica extraperitoneal laparoscópica (LPEL) para clasificación en carcinoma de cérvix localmente avanzado (CCLA) y revisión de la literatura.

Métodos:

Búsqueda de literatura en MEDLINE y EMBASE usando palabras clave: "Uterine Cervical Neoplasms; Neoplasm Staging; Lymph Nodes; Lymph Node Excision; Laparoscopy; extraperitoneal''. Describimos la técnica quirúrgica para LPEL y resultados obtenidos en 10 pacientes intervenidas.

Resultados:

Diez pacientes con CCLA fueron sometidas a LPEL, rango de edad entre 29 y 65 años, sangrado operatorio entre 5 y 30cc, recuento ganglionar entre 2 y 11 ganglios; no complicaciones intraoperatorias y estancia hospitalaria entre uno y tres días.

Conclusión:

Es la primera experiencia reportada de LPEL para el CCLA en Colombia, siendo un procedimiento factible, seguro y útil para identificar compromiso paraaórtico adaptando el tratamiento.
Abstract A description is presented on the surgical experience of 10 patients who underwent laparoscopic extraperitoneal para-aortic lymphadenectomy (LEPL) in order to classify locally advanced cervical carcinoma (LACC), as well as a literature review.

Methods:

A literature search was performed in MEDLINE and EMBASE using the following keywords:''Uterine Cervical Cancer; Cancer Staging; Lymph Nodes; Lymph Node Excision; Laparoscopy; extraperitoneal''. The surgical technique for LEPL is described, as well as the outcomes of the 10 patients who underwent surgery.

Results:

A total of 10 patients, with ages between 29 and 65 years and with LACC underwent LPEL. There were surgical blood losses between 5 to 30 cc, a lymph node count between 2 and 11, no surgical complications, and a hospital stay of between 1 and 3 days.

Conclusion:

This is the first experience reported for LPEL for LACC in Colombia. It is a safe, feasible, and useful procedure to identify para-aortic involvement.
