Abstract
BACKGROUND Functional complaints after colorectal surgery have a profound effect on quality of life (QoL). Our goal was to investigate the prevalence of functional complaints and quality of life after Hartmann's reversal surgery. METHOD A cross-sectional study was performed where one hundred nineteen patients were included. All patients underwent Hartmann's reversal procedure between 2007 and 2019. All patients were asked to complete 3 validated questionnaires related to bowel function in benign and colorectal cancer surgery as well as general QoL. RESULTS The response rate was 67%. Among responders, 32.8% reported LARS-like symptoms whereas 25% had significant COREFO Scores (>15). Higher LARS and COREFO scores were significantly associated with worse global QoL and several QoL domain scores (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION This study highlights the prevalence of bowel dysfunction after Hartmann's reversal surgery. Patients undergoing this procedure show similar functional complaints compared to those in literature who had a resection without colostomy.

Safety and efficacy of laparoscopic near-total colectomy and ileo-distal sigmoid anastomosis as a modification of total colectomy and ileorectal anastomosis for prophylactic surgery in patients with adenomatous polyposis syndromes: a comparative study. Colorectal Dis 2020; 22:799-805. [PMID: 31943692 DOI: 10.1111/codi.14964] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/07/2019] [Accepted: 12/15/2019] [Indexed: 02/08/2023]
Abstract
AIM Colectomy in patients with adenomatous polyposis (AP) syndromes demands good oncological and surgical outcome. Total colectomy with ileorectal anastomosis (TC-IRA) is one surgical option for these patients. Anastomotic leakage rates of 11% have been reported following TC-IRA. Ileo-distal sigmoid anastomosis (IDSA) is a recent modification of our practice. Our aim was to compare postoperative outcome in patients with AP following near-total colectomy with IDSA (NT-IDSA) and TC-IRA at a single institution. METHOD A prospectively maintained database was reviewed to identify patients with AP who underwent laparoscopic NT-IDSA and TC-IRA. Patient demographics, early morbidity and mortality and outcome of endoscopic surveillance were evaluated. RESULTS A total of 191 patients with AP underwent laparoscopic colectomy between 2006 and 2017, of whom 139 (72.8%) underwent TC-IRA and 52 (27.2%) NT-IDSA. The median age at surgery in the TC-IRA and NT-IDSA groups was 20 years (IQR 17-45) and 27 years (IQR 19-50), respectively. Grade II complications were comparable between the two groups. There were no anastomotic leakages in the NT-IDSA group compared with 15 (10.8%) in the TC-IRA group (P = 0.0125) and no reoperation in the NT-IDSA group compared with 17 (12.2%) in the TC-IRA group (P = 0.008). The frequency of polypectomies per flexible sigmoidoscopy was comparable between the two groups. CONCLUSION This study demonstrates that laparoscopic NT-IDSA for polyposis is associated with a significant improvement in anastomotic leakage rates and surgical outcome. It is too soon to tell whether NT-IDSA alters the need for further intervention, either endoscopic polypectomy or further surgery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Outcomes after total abdominal colectomy with ileosigmoid or ileorectal anastomosis for Crohn's colitis and risk factors for requirement of a permanent ileostomy remain poorly understood, particularly in the biologic era. OBJECTIVE This study aimed to determine long-term ostomy-free survival after ileosigmoid or ileorectal anastomosis for Crohn's colitis and potential risk factors for requirement of an ileostomy. DESIGN This is a retrospective cohort study. SETTING This study was conducted at a single-institution IBD tertiary referral center. PATIENTS Patients diagnosed with Crohn's disease and undergoing ileosigmoid or ileorectal anastomosis between 2006 and 2018 were selected. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE Long-term ostomy-free survival and hazard ratios of potential predictors of ileostomy requirement were the primary outcomes measured. RESULTS One hundred nine patients (56% female) underwent ileosigmoid or ileorectal anastomosis for Crohn's disease. The majority of surgical procedures were completed in 2 or 3 stages (53%). The indication for total abdominal colectomy was predominantly medically refractory disease (77%), with dysplasia the second leading indication (13%). At an overall mean follow-up of 3 years, 16 patients had undergone either proctectomy or diversion with the rectum in situ. This resulted in ostomy-free survival estimates at 5 and 10 years of 78% (95% CI, 68-90) and 58% (95% CI, 35-94). A positive distal microscopic margin was the only risk factor for later requirement of a permanent ileostomy (HR, 5.4; 95% CI, 1.7-17.2). LIMITATIONS This study is limited because it is a retrospective study at a tertiary referral center. CONCLUSIONS Long-term ostomy-free survival can be achieved in the majority of patients who undergo restoration of intestinal continuity after total abdominal colectomy for Crohn's colitis. A positive distal microscopic margin was independently associated with long-term anastomotic failure, and it should be accounted for when risk stratifying patients for postoperative prophylactic medical therapy.

Low Incidence of Advanced Neoplasia in Serrated Polyposis Syndrome After (Sub)total Colectomy: Results of a 5-Year International Prospective Cohort Study. Am J Gastroenterol 2019; 114:1512-1519.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Serrated polyposis syndrome (SPS) is accompanied by a substantially increased colorectal cancer (CRC) risk. To prevent or treat CRC in patients with a very high polyp burden, (sub)total colectomy with ileorectal or ileosigmoidal anastomosis is regularly performed. The CRC risk after (sub)total colectomy might be decreased, but evidence is lacking. We aimed to assess the yield of endoscopic surveillance in patients with SPS who underwent (sub)total colectomy. METHODS For this post hoc analysis, we used prospectively collected data from a large international prospective cohort study. We included patients diagnosed with SPS (World Health Organization type I and/or III) who underwent (sub)total colectomy. Primary endpoint was the cumulative 5-year incidence of CRC and advanced neoplasia (AN). RESULTS Forty-eight patients (mean age 61 [±7.8]; 52% men) were included and followed up for a median of 4.7 years (interquartile range 4.7-5.1). None of the patients developed CRC during follow-up. Five patients developed AN, corresponding to a cumulative 5-year AN incidence of 13% (95% confidence interval 1.2-23). In 4 patients, AN was diagnosed at the first surveillance endoscopy after study inclusion, and in 1 patient, AN was detected during subsequent rounds of surveillance. The risk of AN was similar for patients with ileorectal and ileosigmoidal anastomosis (logrank P = 0.83). DISCUSSION (Sub)total colectomy mitigates much of the excess risk of CRC in patients with SPS. Advanced neoplasms are mainly detected at the first endoscopy after (sub)total colectomy. Based on these results, after the first surveillance, intervals might be extended beyond the currently recommended 1-2 years.

Abstract
PURPOSE The growing population of survivors after colon cancer warrants increased attention to the long-term outcome of surgical treatment. The change in bowel anatomy after resection disrupts normal gastrointestinal function and may cause symptoms. Thus, many patients surviving colon cancer have to cope with bowel dysfunction for the rest of their lives. We here aim to provide an overview of the literature on this topic. METHODS We review long-term functional outcomes of surgical treatment for colon cancer, the underlying pathology, and treatment options. RESULTS Common symptoms include constipation, urge for defecation and diarrhoea. Causes of diarrhoea after colon cancer surgery are sparsely studied, but they probably include bile acid malabsorption, small intestinal bacterial overgrowth and disruption of the ileal brake. Specific diagnosis should be made to allow individual treatment based on the underlying pathology. Studies on treatment of functional problems after surgery for colon cancer are extremely few, but some lessons can be drawn from the treatment of other patient groups having undergone colon surgery. CONCLUSION Diarrhoea is likely a common long-term complication after colon cancer surgery. Attention to this complication and a specific diagnosis will aid the targeted treatment of patients suffering from this complication.

Segmental vs. extended colectomy: measurable differences in morbidity, function, and quality of life. Dis Colon Rectum 2008; 51:1036-43. [PMID: 18470560 DOI: 10.1007/s10350-008-9325-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 100] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/29/2007] [Revised: 10/06/2007] [Accepted: 10/28/2007] [Indexed: 02/08/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE The colon coordinates fecal elimination while reabsorbing excess fluid. Extended colonic resection removes synchronous and prevents metachronous disease but may adversely alter bowel function and health-related quality of life to a greater degree than segmental resection. This study examined the short-term morbidity and long-term function and quality of life after colon resections of different extents. METHODS Patients undergoing extended resections (n = 201, subtotal colectomy with ileosigmoid or total abdominal colectomy with ileorectal anastomosis) and segmental colonic resections (n = 321) during 1991 to 2003 were reviewed for perioperative outcomes and surveyed for bowel function and quality of life using an institutional questionnaire and a validated quality of life instrument (response rate: 70 percent). RESULTS The most common indication for extended resections was multiple polyps, and for segmental resections, single malignancy. The complication-free rate was 75.4 percent after segmental resections, 42.8 percent after ileosigmoid anastomosis, and 60 percent after ileorectal anastomosis. Median daily stool frequency was two after segmental resections, four after ileosigmoid anastomosis, and five after ileorectal anastomosis, despite considerable dietary restrictions (55.6 percent) and medication use (19.6 percent daily) after ileorectal anastomosis. Significant proportions of patients felt restricted from preoperative social activity (31.5 percent), housework (20.4 percent), recreation (31.5 percent), and travel (42.6 percent) after ileorectal anastomosis. The overall quality of life after segmental resection, ileosigmoid anastomosis, and ileorectal anastomosis was 98.5, 94.9, and 91.2, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Measurable compromises in long-term bowel function and quality of life were observed after extended vs. segmental resections. The relative differences in patient-related outcomes should be deliberated against the clinical benefits of extended resection for the individual patient.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study reviews the functional outcome and satisfaction of patients after subtotal or total colectomy (STTC). METHODS A retrospective review of patients who underwent STTC between June 1999 and September 2003 was performed. A standardized questionnaire was formulated and phone interviews were conducted with these patients. RESULTS There were 50 patients who underwent STTC during this period. The most common indications were bleeding diverticular disease, patients with synchronous colorectal cancers or polyps and left-sided colonic obstruction. The presence of ischaemic heart disease and the development of perioperative acute coronary syndrome were found to be statistically significant predictors of 30 day mortality with P = 0.01 and 0.05, respectively. Phone interviews were successfully conducted in 33 patients. The patients interviewed were between 4 and 54 months postsurgery. Ninety-four percent reported that they were either happy or satisfied. Cleveland Clinic Incontinence Score (CCIS) revealed good or perfect continence in 94% of patients. Less than one-quarter of those interviewed had five or more bowel movements in a day while most had either two or three bowel movements a day. Patient satisfaction after STTC correlated strongly with the severity of CCIS and number of bowel movements a day (P < 0.01). Also, those with less than five bowel movements a day were more likely to report a better satisfaction (P < 0.01). CONCLUSION Subtotal or total colectomy is associated with a good functional outcome and most patients were satisfied with their bowel function on follow-up.
