Abstract
BACKGROUND
Early postoperative inflammatory small bowel obstruction (EPISBO) is easy to be complicated after colorectal cancer surgery. Both intestinal obstruction catheter and meglumine can treat EPISBO.
AIM
To investigate the efficacy of an intestinal obstruction tube combined with meglumine diazo in treating EPISBO of colorectal cancer.
METHODS
Data from 60 patients with colorectal cancer and intestinal obstruction admitted to the Proctology Department of our hospital from April 2018 to May 2022 were collected and analyzed and divided into three cohorts according to different treatment regimens. Cohort A (n = 20) received a transnasal intestinal obstruction catheter with panumglumine, and cohort B (n = 20) received a transnasal intestinal obstruction catheter with liquid paraffin. Cohort C (n = 20) received oral treatment with meglumine. The clinical efficacy, first exhaust/defecation time, length of hospital stay, gastrointestinal decompression time, relief time of abdominal pain, and relief time of abdominal distension were compared among the three cohorts. The levels of C-reactive protein (CRP), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-6 (IL-6), monocyte chemotactic protein-1 (MCP-1), serum albumin, and transferrin were compared among the three cohorts before and after treatment. The occurrence of adverse reactions in the three cohorts was compared.
RESULTS
Compared with cohort C, the successful treatment rate of cohort A was significantly higher. There were statistically significant variations in the time of first exhaust/defecation, length of hospital stays, gastrointestinal decompression time, relief time of abdominal pain, and relief time of abdominal distention among the three cohorts. Compared with cohort C, cohort A's first exhaust/defecation time, hospitalization time, gastrointestinal decompression time, abdominal pain relief time, and abdominal distension relief time was reduced (P < 0.05). After treatment, serum CRP, TNF-α, IL-6, and MCP-1 expression levels increased, and serum albumin and serum transferrin levels increased in the three cohorts. The serum albumin level in cohort A was higher than in cohort C. Compared with cohort B and cohort C, the serum transferrin level in cohort A increased (P < 0.05). Compared with cohort C, the total incidence of adverse reactions in cohorts A and B was significantly higher (P < 0.05). The incidence of adverse reactions was similar between cohort A and cohort B.
CONCLUSION
Using an ileus tube combined with meglumine diatrizoate can effectively treat postoperative inflammatory ileus obstructions after surgery colorectal cancer and improve prognosis, inflammatory response, and nutritional status.
