Data such as study design, type of surgical procedures, antithrombotic drugs used, and surgical outcome (both bleeding and thromboembolic complications) were extracted from each study.RESULTSThirteen published articles and two internationally accepted abstracts were eligible for inclusion in the systematic review. Only one study concerning elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy in patients with peri-operative heparin bridging for ACT showed that the risk of postoperative bleeding was higher compared with those without ACT. The remaining 14 studies reported no signifcant differences in the incidence of bleeding complications between the ATT group and the group without ATT. The risk of thromboembolic events (TE) associated with laparoscopic digestive surgery in patients receiving ATT was not signifcantly higher than those with no ATT or interrupted APT.Fujikawa T et al . Laparoscopic digestive surgery and antithrombotic therapyCONCLUSIONLaparoscopic digestive surgery in ATT-burdened patients for prevention of bleeding and TE showed satisfactory results. The risk of hemorrhagic complication during or after these procedures in patients with continued APT or heparin bridging was not signifcantly higher than in patients with no ATT or interrupted APT.展开更多
