A systematic review of postoperative analgesia following laparoscopic colorectal surgery

Abstract: There is a paucity of data assessing the benefits of postoperative analgesic regimes following laparoscopic colorectal surgery and none of the protocols were shown to be clearly superior. Further studies, including the assessment of spinal analgesia are required to determine the most appropriate analgesic regime following laparoscopic colorectal surgery.

“…Therefore, various clinical applications such as intrathecal morphine, epidural analgesia, patient-controlled analgesia (PCA), and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are used to control pain after a laparoscopic colectomy. 4,5 However, optimal management has not yet been established. A regional block can have technical difficulties and complications.…”

“…At present, there is no convincing evidence to suggest the superiority of either PCA or epidural in terms of length of hospital stay for laparoscopic colorectal surgery. In the short term, no significant difference has been identified in terms of adverse events, although postoperative pain appears better controlled in the epidural group [53].…”

“…EDA was associated with controversial results regarding postoperative morbidity (19,20) and slowed down recovery after laparoscopic surgery without evident benefits in recent randomized trials (21,22). Instead, numerous alternatives for peri-and postoperative pain management have been suggested for minimal invasive surgery, and the combination of different strategies in a multimodal concept has been advocated (7,23). However, despite this diversity, pain remains undermanaged even within enhanced recovery protocols (24), and a recent meta-analysis did not show any superiority of pain management within ERAS care regarding pain scores, length of stay and functional recovery (25).…”

“…ERAS care protocols including multimodal pain management strategies aim to facilitate recovery by an opioidsparing attitude to avoid opioid-related side effects (5). Epidurals have been shown to be efficient after open surgery (6), and modern pain management strategies including intravenous lidocaine, wound infiltration or transverse abdominis plane (TAP) block emerge as alternatives for minimally invasive surgery (7). Most studies comparing open and laparoscopic surgery stated less pain after minimally invasive surgery (8,9), but only scarce data reporting on pain scores and actual analgesics consumption is available.…”
