- Objective: This study was aimed to evaluate the patients perspectives, before and one month after surgery in patients treated with open surgery for renal cell carcinoma (RCC). Can effective perioperative analgesia be part of a multimodal approach to minimize morbidity and improve postoperative management [1].Material and Methods: A total of 135 patients with RCC in all stages 2012-2015, were randomized to receive either spinal analgesia with clonidine, or epidural analgesia in addition to the general anesthesia: The patients were stratified according to surgical technique. Inclusion criteria: ASA score I-III, age >18 years, no chronic pain medication or cognitive disorders. The patients survey used was based on the EORTC QLQ-C30. Wilcoxon Signed Rank test and Mann-Whitney-U tests were used for statistical evaluation.Results: A majority of the patients (117 of 135, 86%) responded to the survey. Patients groups treated with partial nephrectomy or radical nephrectomy, had significantly reduced physical and social functioning while emotional functioning improved postoperatively compared with preoperatively. In both surgical groups the patients reported significant negative financial difficulties postoperatively. Similar results was achieved for patients treated with either spinal or epidural anesthesia. The epidural group of patients experienced more negative social functioning but had an improved global health. When comparing the surgical procedures there was no significant difference in the quality of life parameters. However when comparing the analgesic groups, spinal anesthesia had significantly better physical and social functioning after surgery while the patients in the epidural group reported better global health.Conclusion: Patients randomized to be treated with spinal analgesia with clonidine, had better physical and social functioning postoperatively than patients randomized to be treated with epidural analgesia.
