Clin Res Hepatol Gastroenterol 2024; 48:102462. [PMID: 39276858 DOI: 10.1016/j.clinre.2024.102462] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/01/2024] [Revised: 08/29/2024] [Accepted: 09/12/2024] [Indexed: 09/17/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Surgical site infection (SSI) is a significant concern due to its potential to cause delayed wound healing and prolonged hospital stays. This study aims to develop a predictive model in patients with Crohn's disease. METHODS We conducted single-factor and multi-factor logistic regression analyses to identify risk factors, resulting in the development of a logistic regression model and the creation of a nomogram. The model's effect was validated by employing enhanced bootstrap resampling techniques, calibration curves, and DCA curves. Finally, we investigated the risk factors for wall and intra-abdominal infections separately. RESULTS 90 of 675 patients (13.3 %) developed SSI. Several independent risk factors for SSI were identified, including higher postoperative day one neutrophil count (p = 0.033), higher relative blood loss (p = 0.018), female gender (p = 0.021), preoperative corticosteroid use (p = 0.007), Montreal classification A1 and L2 (p < 0.05), previous intestinal resection (p = 0.017), and remaining lesions (p = 0.015). Additionally, undergoing strictureplasty (p = 0.041) is a protective factor against SSI. These nine variables were used to develop an SSI prediction model presented as a nomogram. The model demonstrated strong discrimination (adjusted C-statistic=0.709, 95 % CI: 0.659∼0.757) and precise calibration. The decision curve showed that the nomogram was clinically effective within a probability threshold range of 3 % to 54 %. Further subgroup analysis revealed distinct risk factors for wall infections and intra-abdominal infections. CONCLUSION We established a new predictive model, which can guide the prevention and postoperative care of SSI after Crohn's disease bowel resection surgery to minimize its occurrence rate.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Despite advances in medical therapy, approximately 33% of Crohn's disease (CD) patients will need surgery within 5 years after initial diagnosis. Several surgical approaches to CD have been proposed including small bowel resection, strictureplasty, and combined surgery with resection plus strictureplasty. Here, we utilize the American College of Surgeons (ACS) national surgical quality registry (NSQIP) to perform a comprehensive analysis of 30-day outcomes between these three surgical approaches for CD. METHODS The authors queried the ACS-NSQIP database between 2015 and 2020 for all patients undergoing open or laparoscopic resection of small bowel or strictureplasty for CD using CPT and IC-CM 10. Outcomes of interest included length of stay, discharge disposition, wound complications, 30-day related readmission, and reoperation. RESULTS A total of 2578 patients were identified; 87% of patients underwent small bowel resection, 5% resection with strictureplasty, and 8% strictureplasty alone. Resection plus strictureplasty (combined surgery) was associated with the longest operative time (p = 0.002). Patients undergoing small bowel resection had the longest length of hospital stay (p = 0.030) and the highest incidence of superficial/deep wound infection (44%, p = 0.003) as well as the highest incidence of sepsis (3.5%, p = 0.03). Small bowel resection was found to be associated with higher odds of wound complication compared to combined surgery (OR 2.09, p = 0.024) and strictureplasty (1.9, p = 0.005). CONCLUSION Our study shows that various surgical approaches for CD are associated with comparable outcomes in 30-day related reoperation and readmission, or disposition following surgery between all three surgical approaches. However, small bowel resection displayed higher odds of developing post-operative wound complications.

Abstract
Postoperative anastomotic recurrence of Crohn's disease is challenging and can lead to symptom recurrence and further surgery. The mesenteric pole of the intestine is the initial site of macroscopic anastomotic recurrence, and the mesentery may play an important role in recurrence after surgical resection. Therefore, "mesenteric-based surgery" has gained increasing attention by clinicians. However, the role of mesentery in the postoperative recurrence remains controversial. This review will examine mesenteric changes in Crohn's disease, proposed roles for mesentery in disease progression, and the potential for mesenteric-based surgery in the surgical management of Crohn disease.

Abstract
AIM: to establish the consensus on controversial issues of the surgery for Сrohn’s disease by Delphi method.METHODS: a cross-sectional study was conducted by the Delphi method. 62 experts voted intramural and anonymous (31.03.23). 5 statements from the current edition of clinical guidelines were selected for correction by working group and further voting [2]. Based on the practical experience of the working group and literature data, 3 new statements were created also. Statements that do not reach the required level of agreement (80% or more) will be subjected to Round 2 of the Delphi method.RESULTS: all experts took part in the anonymous voting. The panel of experts is represented by 8 different areas of practical medicine and the median of the professional experience of the respondents was 30 (12–49) years. Of the 8 statements submitted for voting, consensus (80% or more) was reached on 6 out of 8. 2 statements have been revised by working group for the distance 2nd round of the Delphi study. Consensus (more than 80%) was reached on both.CONCLUSION: a cross-sectional study by the Delphi method provided the opinions of a panel of experts on controversial issues in the surgical treatment of Crohn’s disease. Statements that reach consensus will be included by the working group in a new edition of clinical guidelines of Crohn’s disease.

Abstract
Crohn's disease (CD) is a chronic inflammatory bowel disease with a high prevalence throughout the world. The development of Crohn's-related fibrosis, which leads to strictures in the gastrointestinal tract, presents a particular challenge and is associated with significant morbidity. There are currently no specific anti-fibrotic therapies available, and so treatment is aimed at managing the stricturing complications of fibrosis once it is established. This often requires invasive and repeated endoscopic or surgical intervention. The advent of single-cell sequencing has led to significant advances in our understanding of CD at a cellular level, and this has presented opportunities to develop new therapeutic agents with the aim of preventing or reversing fibrosis. In this paper, we discuss the current understanding of CD fibrosis pathogenesis, summarise current management strategies, and present the promise of single-cell sequencing as a tool for the development of effective anti-fibrotic therapies.

THE KOREAN JOURNAL OF GASTROENTEROLOGY = TAEHAN SOHWAGI HAKHOE CHI 2022; 80:177-185. [PMID: 36281550 DOI: 10.4166/kjg.2022.077] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/09/2022] [Revised: 07/08/2022] [Accepted: 07/20/2022] [Indexed: 10/07/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIMS Endoscopic stenting is an evolving treatment for symptomatic Crohn's strictures. Several case series and small studies have reported its efficacy. Future studies can be designed based on a systematic review of the evaluation of efficacy. Hence, this meta-analysis was conducted to assess the critical role of stents in the management of intestinal strictures associated with Crohn's disease (CD). METHODS A literature search of various databases from 2000 to February 2022 was conducted for studies evaluating the outcome of stents in patients with CD-related stricture. The outcomes assessed included technical and clinical success, adverse events, symptom recurrence, and the need for a surgical resection. Pooled event rates across studies were expressed with summative statistics. RESULTS Ten studies with 170 patients were included in the present analysis. The pooled event rates for technical success, clinical success, stent migration, and post-procedural pain were 98.2% (95% CI, 95.8-100), 71.3% (95% CI, 57.4-85.1), 32% (95% CI, 0.0-65.3) and 20.2% (95% CI, 4.1-36.2), respectively. The cumulative recurrence rate and need for surgery were 40.1% (95% CI, 20.3-59.9) and 8.6% (95% CI, 1.7-15.5), respectively. Subgroup analysis showed that partially-covered (PC) self-expanding metallic stent (SEMS) was significantly better than fully-covered SEMS with a lower stent migration rate and symptom recurrence rate. CONCLUSIONS Overall efficacy of stents in the management of CD-related stricture remains moderate with a low complication rate. Among the stents, PC-SEMS may be associated with a more favorable outcome. Future studies will be needed to determine the long-term benefits of endoscopic stenting.

Abstract
Crohn's disease in the small bowel could present itself as an inflammatory stricture, a fibrotic stricture as penetrating disease or a combination of both. It is pertinent to differentiate the disease process as well as its extent to effectively manage the disease. Currently, a combination of medical and surgical therapies forms part of the treatment plan while the debate of which therapy is better continues. In managing the strictures, identification of the disease process through imaging plays a pivotal role as inflammatory strictures respond to anti-tumor necrosis factor (TNF) and biological agents, while fibrotic strictures require endoscopic or surgical intervention. Recent evidence suggests a larger role for surgical excision, particularly in ileocolic disease, while achieving a balance between disease clearance and bowel preservation. Several adaptations to the surgical technique, such as wide mesenteric excision, side to side or Kono-S anastomosis, and long-term metronidazole therapy, are being undertaken even though their absolute benefit is yet to be determined. Penetrating disease requires a broader multidisciplinary approach with a particular focus on nutrition, skincare, and intestinal failure management. The current guidance directs toward early surgical intervention for penetrating disease when feasible. Accurate preoperative imaging, medical management of active diseases, and surgical decision-making based on experience and evidence play a key role in success.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Strictureplasties [SXP] represent an alternative to bowel resection in Crohn's disease [CD]. Over the years, there has been growing interest in the role of non-conventional SXP for the treatment of extensive CD. A systematic review was performed on complications and recurrence following conventional and non-conventional SXP. METHODS The available literature was screened according to the PRISMA statement, until June 2020. Results were categorised into three groups: studies reporting on conventional SXPs; studies with a mixed cohort of conventional and non-conventional SXPs [% non-conventional SXPs ≤15%]; and studies reporting on non-conventional SXPs. Considered endpoints were postoperative complications and overall and SXP site-specific surgical recurrence. Random-effect meta-analysis and meta-regression were used to obtain and compare combined estimates between groups. RESULTS A total of 26 studies for a total of 1839 patients with CD were included. The pooled postoperative complication rates were was 15.5% (95% confidence interval [CI] 11.2%-20.3%), 7.4% [95% CI 0.2%-22.9%], and 19.2% [95% CI 5-39.6%] for the three groups, respectively. The rates of septic complications were 4% [95% CI 2.2%-6.2%], 1.9% [95% CI 0.4%-4.3%], and 4.2% [95% CI 0.9%-9.8%], respectively. Cumulative overall surgical recurrence rates were 27.5% [95% CI 18.5%-37.6%], 13.2% [95% CI 8.6%-18.7%], and 18.1% [95% CI 6.8%-33.3%]; and SXP site-specific surgical recurrence rates were 13.2% [95% CI 6.9%-21.2%], 8.3% [95% CI 1.6-19.3%], and 8.8% [95% CI 2.2%-19%], respectively. Formal comparison between the groups revealed no differences. CONCLUSIONS Non-conventional SXP did not differ from conventional SXP with respect to safety and long-term recurrence. Consistent heterogeneity was observed and partially limits the conclusions of this study.

Abstract
The indications for surgical intervention in patients with Crohn's disease (CD) are ineffective therapy and complications of this disease. In case of fibrostenotic CD, strictureplasty or bowel resection are indicated. The indications for organ-sparing surgeries are multiple small bowel lesions, previous surgery for CD and short bowel syndrome. Strictureplasty is not advisable in patients with fistulas, abscesses, bowel perforation and severe hypoalbuminemia due to extremely high risk of anastomotic leakage. Therefore, bowel resection is recommended if strict indications for various types of strictureplasty are absent. This approach is associated with effective maintenance of remission and longer recurrence-free period.

Abstract
The development of new drugs for inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is remarkable, and treatment strategies using multiple agents and various techniques are required; however, the treatment strategy is likely to be complex. Therefore, appropriate evaluation of traditional surgical treatment strategies and accurate knowledge of the efficacy and limitations of novel treatments are required. Total infectious complications were found to be associated with the use of corticosteroids and anti‐tumor necrosis factor‐α agents, but not with immunomodulators, anti‐integrin agents, and 5‐aminosalicylic acid. Regarding surgical procedures for IBD, conceived anastomosis methods, including Kono‐S for Crohn's disease stenosis, are associated with better outcomes than conventional techniques. Autologous cell transplantation for Crohn's fistulae has been shown to have a favorable outcome. Diverticulitis is increasing and will be treated more frequently in the future. Risk factors for the incidence of diverticulitis and differences in pathogenesis according to right or left side diverticulitis have been reported. Antibiotic therapy may be omitted for uncomplicated diverticulitis. Moreover, regarding surgical procedures, both bowel resection and anastomosis are associated with favorable short‐term outcomes, higher stoma closure rate, and superior medical economy compared to Hartmann's procedure. Risk factors for recurrence after diverticulitis surgery may provide better postoperative follow‐up. In this review, we explore the current topics of colorectal benign diseases, focusing on IBD and diverticulitis, based on clinical trials and meta‐analyses from 2020‐2021. This review consolidates the available knowledge and improves the quality of surgical procedures and perioperative management for IBD and diverticulitis.

Abstract
Anastomotic recurrence after intestinal resection is one of the main embarrassing problems encountered during Crohn's disease (CD) management. This complication is often associated with an expected consequence, mainly a multiple intestinal resection. This systematic review evaluates published evidence on surgical features to reduce surgical recurrence after bowel resection and provide surgeons with recommendations based on published evidence. We conducted bibliographic research on September 05, 2020, through PubMed, Cochrane database, and Google scholar. We retained meta-analysis, randomized clinical trials, and controlled clinical trials. The strength of clinical data and subsequent recommendations were graded according to the Oxford Centre for Evidence-Based Medicine. Fourteen articles were retained. Early resection reduces surgical relapse and the need for additional medical treatment. There was no difference between conventional and laparoscopic bowel resection. Mesenteric excision seems to reduce surgical recurrence. Stapled side-to-side anastomosis reduces surgical recurrence. However, no difference was observed between Kono-S anastomosis ensure at least similar anastomotic recurrence rate compared to conventional anastomosis. Surgical recurrence was reduced after bowel resection when compared to stricturoplasty. There was no difference between the one and two steps resection. Several surgical features have been investigated. Some of them were unanimously found to be effective in lengthening the disease-free relapse. However, others are still controversial.

Abstract
Crohn's disease (CD) is a chronic and relapsing-remitting inflammatory disorder of the gastrointestinal tract. Approximately 70% of patients inevitably develop fibrosis-associated intestinal stricture after 10 years of CD diagnosis, which seriously affects their quality of life. Current therapies play limited role in preventing or reversing the process of fibrosis and no specific anti-fibrotic therapy is yet available. Nearly half of patients thus have no alternative but to receive surgery. The potential mechanisms of intestinal fibrosis remain poorly understood; extracellular matrix remodeling, aberrant immune response, intestinal microbiome imbalance and creeping fat might exert fundamental influences on the multiple physiological and pathophysiological processes. Recently, the emerging new diagnostic techniques have markedly promoted an accurate assessment of intestinal stricture by distinguishing fibrosis from inflammation, which is crucial for guiding treatment and predicting prognosis. In this review, we concisely summarized the key studies published in the year 2020 covering pathogenesis, diagnostic modalities, and therapeutic strategy of intestinal stricture. A comprehensive and timely review of the updated researches in intestinal stricture could provide insight to further elucidate its pathogenesis and identify novel drug targets with anti-fibrotic potentiality.
