Summary

This prospective comparative study evaluated two surgical techniques for residual cavity management following conservative surgery for complicated hepatic cystic echinococcosis. Patients undergoing surgery were managed with either omentoplasty or tube drainage. The study aimed to compare postoperative outcomes between the two techniques, with particular emphasis on postoperative complications and residual cavity-related complications. Long-term follow-up was also performed to assess recurrence and other clinical outcomes.

Conditions

  • Hepatic Cystic Echinococcosis

Interventions

PROCEDURE

omentoplasty

After conservative surgery for complicated hepatic cystic echinococcosis, the residual cavity was obliterated using a pedicled omental flap (omentoplasty) to reduce dead space and cavity-related complications.

PROCEDURE

External Tube Drainage

After conservative surgery for complicated hepatic cystic echinococcosis, an external tube drain was placed into the residual cavity for postoperative drainage and monitoring.
