Abstract
Bowel endometriosis is the most common form of severe deep endometriosis. Surgery is an option in case of infertility and/or chronic pain or in the presence of a stenotic lesion. Clinical examination and preoperative imaging must provide an identity card of the lesion so that customized surgery can be proposed. The primary objective of this tailor-made surgery will always be to preserve the organ. The surgeon then has three options: shaving, discoid resection and segmental resection. The more extensive the resection, the greater the risk of severe short- and long-term complications. Surgery must therefore be adapted to the patient's specific situation and needs. Moreover, personalized care must extend beyond surgery. It must begin before the operation, preparing the patient for the operation like an athlete before a race, and continue afterwards by adapting the follow-up to the surgery performed.

Combined Robotic Transanal Transection Single-Stapled Technique in Ultralow Rectal Endometriosis Involvement Associated With Parametrial and Vaginal Infiltration. J Minim Invasive Gynecol 2024; 31:267-268. [PMID: 38160748 DOI: 10.1016/j.jmig.2023.12.012] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/28/2023] [Revised: 11/27/2023] [Accepted: 12/22/2023] [Indexed: 01/03/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To describe a combined robotic and transanal technique used to treat ultralow rectal endometriosis in a 36-year-old patient with multiple pelvic compartments, which was responsible for infertility, dyspareunia, left sciatic pain, and severe dyschezia. DESIGN Surgical video article. SETTING The achievement of a perfect bowel anastomosis in patients with low rectal endometriosis could be challenging owing to technical and anatomic limitations [1]. By allowing a right angle rectotomy with a single-stapled anastomosis, the transanal transection single-stapled technique overcomes these technical difficulties ensuring a good-quality anastomosis with an easier correction of postoperative anastomotic leakage when it occurs [2,3]. INTERVENTIONS The surgery starts by splitting the nodule in 3 components according to different anatomic structures involved (parametrium, vagina, and rectum). Parametrial and vaginal fragments are excised as previously described (Supplemental Videos 1) [4]. The rectal involvement is approached following several steps: isolation and cut of inferior mesenteric vessels (inferior mesenteric artery and inferior mesenteric vein) and left colic artery to obtain a proper colon mobilization; transanal rectotomy immediately below the lower limit of the nodule; extraction of the specimen through the anus (Supplemental Videos 2); proximal bowel segment transection 1 cm above the upper limit of the nodule; introduction of circular stapler anvil into the sigmoid colon; placement of 2 purse string to secure the anvil and at distal rectal cuff, respectively; connection of the anvil to the shoulder of circular stapler; stapler closing and firing with coloanal anastomosis formation; stapled line reinforcement by stitching; and integrity anastomosis test (Supplemental Videos 3). No preventive diverting stoma was performed in accordance with our policy [5]. CONCLUSIONS Although no data are yet available in patients with endometriosis, the use of transanal transection single-stapled technique may be an interesting approach in patients with very low rectal endometriosis involvement.

J Minim Invasive Gynecol 2023; 30:652-664.

Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVE To evaluate the feasibility of laparoscopic rectosigmoid resection for bowel endometriosis (RSE), reporting surgical and short-term postoperative outcomes in a consecutive large series of patients. DESIGN A retrospective cohort study. SETTING Third-level national referral center for deep endometriosis (DE). PATIENTS 3050 patients with symptomatic RSE requiring surgical treatment. INTERVENTIONS Nerve-sparing laparoscopic resection for RSE perfomed by a multidisciplinary team. After collecting intraoperative surgical characteristics, postoperative complications were collected by evaluating the risk factors associated with their onset. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS Clavien-Dindo IIIb postoperative complications were noted in 13.1% of patients, with anastomotic leakage and rectovaginal fistula accounting for 3.0% and 1.9%, respectively. Postoperative bladder impairment was observed in 13.9% of patients during hospital discharge but spontaneously decreased to 4.5% at the first evaluation after 30 days, alongside a statistically significant change towards global symptom improvement. Multivariate analyses were done to identify the risk factors for segmental bowel resection in terms of occurrence of postoperative major complications. Ultralow (≤5 cm from the anal verge), low rectal anastomosis (<8 cm, >5 cm), parametrectomy, vaginal resection, and previous surgeries seemed more related to anastomotic leakage, rectovaginal fistula, and bladder retention. CONCLUSIONS Laparoscopic rectosigmoid resection for RSE seems an effective and feasible procedure. The surgical complication rate is not negligible but could be reduced by implementing a multidisciplinary approach, an endless improvement in nerve-sparing techniques and surgical anatomy, as well as technological enhancements. Real future challenges will be to reduce the time for the first diagnosis of DE and the likelihood of surgical indications.

Excision of Deep Rectovaginal Endometriosis Nodules with Large Infiltration of Both Rectum and Vagina: What Is a Reasonable Rate of Preventive Stoma? A Comparative Study. J Minim Invasive Gynecol 2023; 30:147-155. [PMID: 36402380 DOI: 10.1016/j.jmig.2022.11.006] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/08/2022] [Revised: 11/04/2022] [Accepted: 11/09/2022] [Indexed: 11/18/2022]
Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVE To compare postoperative complications and rectovaginal fistula rate in women undergoing excision of large rectovaginal endometriosis requiring concomitant excision of rectum and vagina during 2 time periods with differing policies for preventive stoma confection. DESIGN Retrospective before-and-after comparative cohort study on data prospectively recorded in a database. Patients managed from September 2018 to March 2020 (first period) were compared with those managed from April 2020 to June 2022 (second period). SETTING Endometriosis Institute. PATIENTS One hundred sixty-eight patients presenting with deep endometriosis infiltrating the rectum and vagina, with lesions more than 3 cm in diameter during 2 consecutive time periods with differing policies regarding use of preventive stoma. INTERVENTIONS Rectal disc excision or colorectal resection, concomitantly with large vaginal excision. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS A total of 87 and 81 women received surgery during the first and the second period, respectively, during which the rate of preventive stoma was, respectively, 32.2% and 8.6%. Deep rectovaginal nodule characteristics were comparable. The mean height (SD) of rectal sutures after disc excision and colorectal resection were, respectively, 6.5 cm (2.3 cm) and 7.2 cm (3.8 cm). Rectovaginal fistula was recorded in 17 patients, corresponding to an overall rate of 10.1%. The rates of rectovaginal fistula in the group of patients with and without preventive stoma, regardless of the period in which surgery was performed, were 11.4% and 9.8%, respectively (p = .76). The rates of fistula recorded during the first and the second period were, respectively, 9.2% and 11.1% (p = .80), and that of overall early main complications were 31% and 29.6% (p = .84). Regression logistic model identified an independent relationship between smoking and rectovaginal fistula (adjusted odds ratio [OR] 3.9, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.1-14) after adjustment for the period (adjusted OR 1.4, 95% CI 0.4-4.9 related to the second period), stoma confection (adjusted OR 1.8, 95% CI 0.5-7.1 related to stoma confection), robotic surgery (adjusted OR 1.7, 95% CI 0.3-10.1 related to robotic assistance), and type of rectal surgery (adjusted OR 0.4, 95% CI 0.1-1.4 related to disc excision when compared with colorectal resection). CONCLUSION No statistically significant differences were found concerning risk of rectovaginal fistula in women with rectovaginal endometriosis requiring large rectal and vaginal excision after a decision to no longer routinely perform preventive stoma.

ULTRASOUND IN OBSTETRICS & GYNECOLOGY : THE OFFICIAL JOURNAL OF THE INTERNATIONAL SOCIETY OF ULTRASOUND IN OBSTETRICS AND GYNECOLOGY 2023; 61:243-250.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To compare transvaginal sonography (TVS) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with intraoperative measurement (IOM) using a rectal probe in the estimation of the location of rectosigmoid endometriotic lesions, i.e. lesion-to-anal-verge distance (LAVD), and to compare two different MRI techniques for measuring LAVD. METHODS This was a prospective single-center observational study that included women undergoing surgery for symptomatic rectosigmoid endometriosis by discoid (DR) or segmental (SR) resection from December 2018 to December 2019. TVS and MRI were performed presurgically for each participant to evaluate LAVD, and the measurements on imaging were compared with IOM using a rectal probe. Clinically acceptable difference and limits of agreement (LoA) between TVS and MRI compared with IOM were set at ± 20 mm. Two different measuring methods for MRI, MRICenter and MRIDirect , were proposed and evaluated, as there is currently no guideline to describe deep endometriosis on MRI. Bland-Altman plots and LoA were used to assess agreement of TVS and both MRI methods with IOM. Systematic and proportional biases were assessed using paired t-test and Bland-Altman plots. RESULTS Seventy-five women were eligible for inclusion. Twenty-eight women were excluded, leaving 47 women for the analysis. Twenty-three DR and 26 SR procedures were performed, with both procedures performed in two women. The Bland-Altman plots showed that there were no systematic differences between TVS or MRICenter when compared with IOM for all included participants. MRIDirect systematically underestimated LAVD for lesions located further from the anal verge. TVS, MRICenter and MRIDirect had LoA outside the preset clinically acceptable difference when compared with IOM. LAVD was within the clinically acceptable difference from IOM of ± 20 mm in 70% (33/47) of women on TVS, 72% (34/47) of women on MRICenter and 47% (22/47) of women on MRIDirect . CONCLUSIONS TVS should be the preferred method to estimate the location of a rectosigmoid endometriotic lesion, i.e. LAVD, as it is more available, less expensive and has a similar accuracy to that of MRI. Estimating LAVD can be relevant for planning colorectal surgery for rectosigmoid endometriosis. © 2022 The Authors.

Abstract
The main aim of the study was to evaluate severe post-operative complications following deep endometriosis surgery in a tertiary referral centre. This is a retrospective cohort study that included women who had surgery for deep infiltrating endometriosis between 1st January 2013 and 31st December 2019. Endometriosis was diagnosed based on clinical, imaging and histological parameters. We evaluated the rates of post-operative complications, potential risk factors for such complications and postoperative pregnancy rates. A total of 165 patients were included in the final analysis. The median follow-up was 63 (25-106) months. Thirty-seven patients (22.42%) had hysterectomy, 60 (36.81%) had ureterolysis and 44 (26.67%) had colorectal surgery. The overall and severe rates of post-operative complications were 16.20% (n = 23) and 2.42% (n = 4) respectively. Of the variables assessed, operative time and age were the only statistically significant risk factor for complications on multivariate analysis. Among women operated on for infertility, 34.5% (n = 20/58) got pregnant following surgery with 30% of these spontaneously. This study demonstrates acceptable overall and severe post-operative complications and pregnancy rates after deep endometriosis surgery. This information should help clinicians when counselling women to enable them making an informed choice about their management.

Acta Obstet Gynecol Scand 2022; 101:705-718. [PMID: 35661342 DOI: 10.1111/aogs.14379] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/30/2021] [Revised: 03/13/2022] [Accepted: 04/01/2022] [Indexed: 12/01/2022]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION The aim of this study was to analyze the available literature by conducting a systematic review to assess the possible effects of nerve-sparing segmental resection and conventional bowel resection on postoperative complications for the treatment of colorectal endometriosis. MATERIAL AND METHODS Pubmed, Clinical Trials.gov, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science were comprehensively searched from 1997 to 2021 in order to perform a systematic review. Studies including patients undergoing segmental resection for colorectal endometriosis including adequate follow-up, data on postoperative complications and postoperative sequelae were enrolled in this review. Selected articles were evaluated and divided in two groups: Nerve-sparing resection (NSR), and conventional segmental resection not otherwise specified (SRNOS). Within the NSRs, studies mentioning preservation of the rectal artery supply (artery and nerve-sparing SR - ANSR) and not reporting preservation of the artery supply (NSR not otherwise specified - NSRNOS) were further analyzed. PROSPERO ID CRD42021250974. RESULTS A total of 7549 patients from 63 studies were included in the data analysis. Forty-three of these publications did not mention the preservation or the removal of the hypogastric nerve plexus, or main rectal artery supply and were summarized as SRNOS. The remaining 22 studies were listed under the NSR group. The mean size of the resected deep endometriosis lesions and patients' body mass index were comparable between SRNOS and NSR. A mean of 3.6% (0-16.6) and 2.3% (0-10.5%) of rectovaginal fistula development was reported in patients who underwent SRNOS and NSR, respectively. Anastomotic leakage rates varied from 0% to 8.6% (mean 1.7 ± 2%) in SRNOS compared with 0% to 8% (mean 1.7 ± 2%) in patients undergoing NSR. Urinary retention (4.5% and 4.9%) and long-term bladder catheterization (4.9% and 5.6%) were frequently reported in SRNOS and NSR. There was insufficient information about pain or the recurrence rates for women undergoing SRNOS and NSR. CONCLUSIONS Current data describe the outcomes of different segmental resection techniques. However, the data are inhomogeneous and not sufficient to reach a conclusion regarding a possible advantage of one technique over the other.

PATIENTS 55 patients with deep endometriosis infiltrating the rectum. INTERVENTIONS Patients underwent either segmental resection or nodule excision by shaving or disc excision, depending on a randomization which was performed preoperatively using sequentially numbered, opaque sealed envelopes. MEASUREMENT AND MAIN RESULTS The primary endpoint was the number of patients experiencing one of the following symptoms: constipation, frequent bowel movements, anal incontinence or bladder dysfunction 24 months postoperatively. Secondary endpoints were values of gastrointestinal and overall quality of life scores. The 7 year-recurrence rates (new deep endometriosis nodule infiltrating the rectum) in the excision vs. the segmental resection arms were 7.4 % vs. 0% (P=.24). One of more symptoms included in the definition of the primary outcomes were recorded in 55.6% vs. 60.7% of patients (P=0.79). However, 51.9% vs. 53.6% of patients considered their bowel movements as normal (P=.99). An intention-to-treat comparison of overall quality of life scores did not find differences between the two groups 7 years postoperatively. At the end of the 7-year study period, 31 of the 37 patients who tried to conceive were successful (83.8%) including: 27 (57.4%) natural conceptions and 20 (42.6%) pregnancies resulting from ART procedures. Pregnancy rate was 82.4% vs. 85% in the two arms (P=.99). A 75.7% live birth rate was recorded. At the end of the follow up there were 15 women with one child (40.5%) and 13 women with 2 children (35.1%). During the 7-year follow- up, the reoperation rate was respectively 37% and 35.7% in each arm, P=0.84). Among the 27 reoperation procedures during the follow up period, 11 were postoperative complications (40.7%), 7 were necessary prior to ART management (25.9%), 8 were for recurrent abdominal or pelvic pain (29.6%) and one for midline ventral hernia following pregnancy (3.7%). CONCLUSIONS Our study did not reveal a significant difference in terms of digestive functional outcomes, recurrence rate, reoperation risk and pregnancy likelihood when conservative and radical rectal surgery for deep endometriosis were compared 7 years postoperatively. Postoperative pregnancy rate observed in our series is high.
