Abstract
Reproductive counseling is crucial for women's health, especially for those with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), which often affects younger patients during their childbearing years. Patients with IBD need special considerations when planning for pregnancy. Preconception counseling is important as it helps patients make informed decisions about pregnancy and allows for optimal management of IBD before, during, and after pregnancy. In this review, we aim to provide guidance for managing and treating patients with IBD throughout the preconception, pregnancy, and postpartum period.

[PMID: 39409996 PMCID: PMC11475783 DOI: 10.3390/cancers16193376] [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: 08/31/2024] [Revised: 09/27/2024] [Accepted: 10/01/2024] [Indexed: 10/20/2024] Open
Abstract
As the incidence of colorectal cancer (CRC) increases among younger adults, the need for discussions regarding treatment-related infertility is growing. The negative impacts of gonadotoxic chemotherapy and pelvic radiation are well documented, but the role that surgical intervention for CRC plays in infertility is less clear. Additionally, treatment-related infertility counseling occurs infrequently. This review provides an overview of the connection between abdominal and pelvic surgery on male and female infertility and elucidates the role of surgeons in counseling to alleviate psychological distress in newly diagnosed patients. A review of the literature revealed that pelvic surgery leads to increased adhesion formation, which is known to be associated with female infertility. Furthermore, nerve damage from pelvic surgery has significant implications for ejaculatory issues in males and sexual dysfunction in both males and females, which ultimately impact pregnancy success. Patients have significant distress related to treatment-related infertility, and pre-treatment fertility counseling has been shown to alleviate some of this psychological burden. Nevertheless, many patients do not receive counseling, particularly in surgical clinics, despite surgeons often being the first providers to see newly diagnosed non-metastatic patients. Efforts should be made to enact protocols that ensure fertility conversations are being had with patients in surgical clinics and that patients are being referred to fertility specialists appropriately. This patient-centered approach will lessen the psychological burden placed on patients during a vulnerable time in their lives.

Habermann A, Gassie H, Rustom S, Wieghard NE, Wexner SD, Sharp SP. Trends in surgical outcomes for Ileal pouch-anal anastomosis construction using a large nationwide database. Colorectal Dis 2024. [PMID: 39333043 DOI: 10.1111/codi.17188] [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: 02/20/2024] [Revised: 08/01/2024] [Accepted: 09/02/2024] [Indexed: 09/29/2024]
Abstract
AIM Ulcerative colitis (UC) affects over 3 million (1.3%) US adults, approximately 20% of whom will require surgery. Since it was first described in 1978, restorative proctocolectomy with ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (IPAA) has become the gold standard for patients requiring surgery, as well as for patients with familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP). In 1991 the laparoscopic approach to IPAA was introduced. The aim of this study was to evaluate the advances made in IPAA as minimally invasive surgery (MIS) has become more prevalent. METHOD The American College of Surgeons NSQIP database from 2005 to 2019 was used. Laparoscopic (MIS) and open cases of IPAA construction for UC or FAP were used. These patients were subdivided into three time point cohorts: early (2005-2009), middle (2010-2014) and recent (2015-2019). Univariable and multivariable analyses were performed to evaluate morbidity, mortality and hospital length of stay. RESULTS A total of 6184 patients were analysed, and 2555 underwent MIS while 3629 underwent open surgery. After multivariable analysis, the MIS approach was associated with a lower risk of morbidity compared with open procedures [relative risk (RR) = 0.86, p < 0.0001, 95% CI 0.78-0.94], both in the early and recent periods [early period = RR = 0.66 (p < 0.0001), recent period RR = 0.78 (p = 0.0029)]. Superficial surgical site infection (SSI) was consistently lower in the MIS cohort across all three time periods. After multivariable analysis, the overall RR of superficial SSI in the MIS cohort was 0.41 (p < 0.0001) [early period RR = 0.35 (p < 0.0001), middle period RR = 0.55 (p = 0.0007), recent period RR = 0.31 (p < 0.0001)]. The RR of deep space SSI was decreased overall (RR = 0.58, p = 0.013, 95% CI 0.62-0.93), with the most significant effect occurring during the early period (RR = 0.30, p = 0.0260, 95% CI 0.105-0.868). Sepsis related to any infective aetiology was also decreased in the MIS cohort (RR = 0.76, p = 0.0093, 95% CI 0.62-0.93), especially in the recent time period (RR = 0.63, p = 0.0344, 95% CI 0.41-0.97). Furthermore, hospital length of stay was decreased in the MIS cohort (-0.287 days, p = 0.0170), with a greater difference occurring in the more recent cohort (-0.375 days, p = 0.0418). CONCLUSION With increasing utilization of minimally invasive techniques in IPAA creation there have been significant decreases in the rates of morbidity including decreasing rates of superficial and deep space SSI, as well as decreased hospital length of stay.

Abstract
Complications of Crohn's disease reach far beyond postsurgical leak, infection, and enterocutaneous fistula. Malnutrition, intestinal failure, and recurrent disease all will require ongoing attentions. The management of these patients may further be complicated by the need for chronic immunosuppression. The underlying principles continue to include optimization of nutritional status, and preservation of bowel length when possible. However, there have been several recent advances in both the medical and surgical management of the disease. Understanding the contribution of the mesentery to inflammation, new surgical techniques such as the Kono-S anastomosis and extended mesenteric resection is decreasing the need for repeated resections.

Abstract
BACKGROUND An ileoanal pouch with IPAA is the preferred method to restore intestinal continuity in patients who require a total proctocolectomy. Pouch surgery has evolved during the past decades thanks to increased experience and research, changes in the medical management of patients who require an ileal pouch, and technological innovations. OBJECTIVE To review the main changes in pouch surgery over the past 2 decades, with a focus on staging, minimally invasive and transanal approaches, pouch design, and anastomotic configuration. RESULTS The decision on the staging approach depends on the patient's conditions, their indication for surgery, and the risk of anastomotic leak. A minimally invasive approach should be performed whenever feasible, but open surgery still has a role in this technically demanding operation. Transanal IPAA may be performed in experienced centers and may reduce conversion to open surgery in the hostile pelvis. The J-pouch is the easiest, fastest, and most commonly performed design, but other designs may be used when a J-pouch is not feasible. A stapled anastomosis without mucosectomy can be safely performed in the majority of cases, with a low incidence of rectal cuff neoplasia and better functional outcomes than handsewn. Finally, Crohn's disease is not an absolute contraindication to an ileoanal pouch, but pouch failure may be higher compared to other indications. CONCLUSIONS Many technical nuances contribute to the success of an ileoanal pouch. The current standard of care is a laparoscopic J-pouch with double-stapled anastomosis, but this should not be seen as a dogma, and the optimal approach and design should be tailored to each patient.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Inflammatory bowel disease colitis-associated dysplasia is managed with either enhanced surveillance and endoscopic resection or prophylactic surgery. The rate of progression to cancer after a dysplasia diagnosis remains uncertain in many cases and patients have high thresholds for accepting proctocolectomy. Individualised discussion of management options is encouraged to take place between patients and their multidisciplinary teams for best outcomes. We aimed to develop a toolkit to support a structured, multidisciplinary and shared decision-making approach to discussions about dysplasia management options between clinicians and their patients. METHODS Evidence from systematic literature reviews, mixed-methods studies conducted with key stakeholders, and decision-making expert recommendations were consolidated to draft consensus statements by the DECIDE steering group. These were then subjected to an international, multidisciplinary modified electronic Delphi process until an a priori threshold of 80% agreement was achieved to establish consensus for each statement. RESULTS In all, 31 members [15 gastroenterologists, 14 colorectal surgeons and two nurse specialists] from nine countries formed the Delphi panel. We present the 18 consensus statements generated after two iterative rounds of anonymous voting. CONCLUSIONS By consolidating evidence for best practice using literature review and key stakeholder and decision-making expert consultation, we have developed international consensus recommendations to support health care professionals counselling patients on the management of high cancer risk colitis-associated dysplasia. The final toolkit includes clinician and patient decision aids to facilitate shared decision-making.

Abstract
In recent years, there has been continuous improvement in the treatment and diagnosis of cancer, which has led to a significant improvement in the survival rate of cancer patients. Treatments that include chemotherapy, radiotherapy, surgery, or combined therapy have several side effects that may lead to premature ovarian insufficiency in females or substantial male germ cell loss. Reproductive biologists recommend that all patients who are diagnosed with a malignant tumor must undergo a consultation for fertility protection and preservation. In this review, we discuss the background knowledge, methods, and options for fertility preservation and how these new strategies help oncologists, surgeons, pediatricians, and hematologists, conserve fertility and be aware of the concepts, methods, and importance of fertility guards. This review may aid in the advancement of novel personalized methods for fertility preservation according to patients' conditions.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Report the rate of successful pregnancy in a national cohort of women with either an ileal pouch anal (IPAA) or ileorectal (IRA) anastomosis constructed after colectomy for inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) or polyposis. BACKGROUND Fertility after IPAA is probably impaired. All available data are corroborated by only small sample size studies. It is not known whether construction of IPAA versus IRA influences the odds of subsequently achieving a successful pregnancy, especially with increased utilization of the laparoscopic approach. METHODS All women (age: 12-45 y) undergoing IRA or IPAA in France for polyposis or IBD, between 2010-2020, were included. A control population was defined as women aged from 12 to 45 years undergoing laparoscopic appendicectomy during the same period. The odds of successful pregnancy were studied using an adjusted survival analysis. RESULTS A total of 1491 women (IPAA=872, 58%; IRA=619, 42%) were included. A total of 220 deliveries (15%) occurred during the follow-up period of 71 months (39-100). After adjustment, the odds of successful pregnancy was not significantly associated with type of anastomosis (after IPAA: Hazard Ratio [HR]=0.79, 95% confidence interval=0.56-1.11, P =0.17). The laparoscopic approach increased the odds of achieving successful pregnancy (HR=1.79, 95% confidence interval=1.20-2.63, P =0.004). IRA and IPAA significantly impacted fertility when compared with the control population ( P <0.001). CONCLUSIONS In this large cohort study, total colectomy for polyposis or IBD was associated with reduced fertility compared with the general population. No difference in odds of achieving successful pregnancy was found between IRA and IPAA after adjustment. This analysis suggests laparoscopic surgery may be associated with greater likelihood of pregnancy.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Because pregnancy outcomes tend to be worse in women with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) than in those without, we aimed to update consensus statements that guide the clinical management of pregnancy in patients with IBD. DESIGN A multidisciplinary working group was established to formulate these consensus statements. A modified RAND/UCLA appropriateness method was used, consisting of a literature review, online voting, discussion meeting and a second round of voting. The overall agreement among the delegates and appropriateness of the statement are reported. RESULTS Agreement was reached for 38/39 statements which provide guidance on management of pregnancy in patients with IBD. Most medications can and should be continued throughout pregnancy, except for methotrexate, allopurinol and new small molecules, such as tofacitinib. Due to limited data, no conclusion was reached on the use of tioguanine during pregnancy. Achieving and maintaining IBD remission before conception and throughout pregnancy is crucial to optimise maternofetal outcomes. This requires a multidisciplinary approach to engage patients, allay anxieties and maximise adherence tomedication. Intestinal ultrasound can be used for disease monitoring during pregnancy, and flexible sigmoidoscopy or MRI where clinically necessary. CONCLUSION These consensus statements provide up-to-date, comprehensive recommendations for the management of pregnancy in patients with IBD. This will enable a high standard of care for patients with IBD across all clinical settings.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW As the incidence of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) rises, gastroenterologists are more commonly facing management of the disease in women of childbearing age. This coincides with the development of new IBD therapies whose use in pregnancy must be considered. RECENT FINDINGS This review provides updated recommendations for newer biologic agents and small molecules that have been approved for IBD treatment since the previous guidelines were published. In addition, recent research has found that prior IBD-related surgeries, not just ileal pouch-anal anastomosis, can impact pregnancy outcomes. Reassuringly, assisted reproductive technology for IBD patients has been found to have similar success rates to the non-IBD population. Ensuring disease remission prior to conception and throughout pregnancy is key for optimizing pregnancy and fetal outcomes. As gastroenterologists play an integral role in the management of IBD throughout the peripartum period, this review summarizes recent studies in combination with existing guidelines to address preconception counseling, medication safety, and management for quiescent and active disease throughout pregnancy.

Abstract
Since the mid-20th century, physicians have searched for way to improve the lives of patients with ulcerative colitis (UC). Early attempts of curative resection left the patients with a permanent stoma with only primitive stoma appliances available. Gradually, stoma care improved and operations were devised to give the patient bowel continuity without the need for a permanent ostomy. As these operations were evolving, benefits and drawbacks related to fertility, ease of small bowel reach to the pelvis, and postoperative pelvic sepsis were observed. In this article, we will elucidate the various ways pelvic pouches are used to treat UC and the rationale for the timing of surgery as well as the evolution of stoma care.

Abstract
Ulcerative colitis (UC) requires surgical management in 20 to 30% of patients. Indications for surgery include medically refractory disease, dysplasia, cancer, and other complications of UC. Appropriate patient selection for timing and staging of surgery is paramount for optimal outcomes. Restorative proctocolectomy is the preferred standard of care and can afford many patients with excellent quality of life. There have been significant shifts in the treatment of UC-associated dysplasia, with less patients requiring surgery and more entering surveillance programs. There is ongoing controversy surrounding the management of UC-associated colorectal cancer and the techniques that should be used. This article reviews the most recent literature on the indications for elective and emergent surgical intervention for UC and the considerations behind the surgical options.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (IPAA) is the procedure of choice in patients with ulcerative colitis (UC) requiring surgery. Advantages of laparoscopic IPAA (lap-IPAA) compared to open surgery have been investigated. However, laparoscopic dissection in the pelvis is still a challenge. A transanal approach provides better access to lower pelvis and avoids multiple staple firings, which could reduce the risk of anastomotic complications. The aim of this study was to compare short-term outcomes of transanal proctectomy with IPAA (ta-IPAA) with conventional lap-IPAA in patients with UC. METHODS A single-center retrospective study was conducted on consecutive UC patients, treated at Copenhagen University Hospital, Hvidovre, undergoing either laparoscopic or transanal IPAA in the period between January 2013 and December 2020. Exclusion criteria were Crohn's disease, previous extensive abdominal surgery and impaired sphincter function. Primary outcomes were overall postoperative complications. Secondary outcomes were length of hospital stay and re-admissions. For comparison between ta-IPAA and lap-IPAA, the Mann-Whitney U test was used for continuous variables, and Chi-square and Fisher's exact test for categorical variables. RESULTS A total of 65 patients with ta-IPAA (34 males, 31 females, median age 31 years [range 12-66 years]) and 70 patients with lap-IPAA (35 males, 35 females, median age 26 years [range 12-66 years]) were included. There was no difference between ta-IPAA and lap-IPAA regarding age, sex, body mass index or American Society of Anesthesiologists class. The primary colectomy procedure was performed laparoscopically in 95% of the ta-IPPA and 91% of the lap-IPAA patients (p = 0.493). The mean time between total colectomy and IPAA was 15 and 9 weeks for ta-IPAA and lap-IPAA, respectively (p = 0.048). A higher proportion of patients with ta-IPAA were treated with biologics preoperatively (98 vs. 82%; p = 0.002). Patients with ta-IPAA had a significantly higher mean operative time compared to lap-IPAA (277 min vs. 224 min; p = 0.001). There was no difference in the overall postoperative complication rate (ta-IPAA: 23% vs. lap-IPAA: 23%; p = 0.99). Pouch-related complications occurred in 13% of the ta-IPAA patients and 29% of lap-IPPA patients (p = 0.402). There was no difference in the anastomotic leakage rates. Readmission rates were similar in the ta-IPAA and lap-IPAA group (26 vs. 29%; p = 0.85), including IPAA-related readmissions. The mean follow-up time was 24 and 75 months for ta-IPAA and lap-IPAA, respectively (p = 0.001), and the ileostomy closure rate was similar in both groups of patients (p = 0.96). CONCLUSIONS The ta-IPAA approach for UC is a safe procedure and offers acceptable short-time outcomes.

[PMID: 35322933 DOI: 10.1111/codi.16123] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/25/2021] [Revised: 03/06/2022] [Accepted: 03/11/2022] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
AIM Ileal pouch-anal anastomosis is a restorative option for patients with ulcerative colitis (UC) requiring surgery. The primary outcome of this study was the relative risk of infertility in women with UC undergoing restorative proctocolectomy (RPC) compared to the same patients before undergoing RPC. Infertility was defined as the inability to conceive after 1 year of regular sexual intercourse without contraception. METHODS A systematic review and meta-analysis were performed to include all relevant articles from 1946 from MEDLINE, Embase and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials. Studies included reported on the fertility rate of a cohort with UC and also reported the rate after RPC in those within the cohort who underwent surgery. This study was registered on PROSPERO (CRD42021259745). RESULTS Thirteen studies met the inclusion criteria and accounted for 793 patients pre-pouch and 802 post-pouch. The mean and median age of the patients at analysis was 36.8 and 32.7 years respectively; and the median duration of follow-up following ileal pouch-anal anastomosis was 110.4 (68-139) months. Our results highlight that following RPC the relative risk of infertility is 4.17 (95% CI 1.99, 8.74) compared with patients before RPC who had UC. CONCLUSIONS The findings of this meta-analysis provide an update on a previous meta-analysis published over a decade ago and results remain congruent. This suggests that despite advancements in surgical techniques the risk to fertility remains similar to a decade ago. However, further high quality studies are needed to try and decipher independent risk factors associated with a decrease in infertility.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel diseases, namely ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease, occur worldwide and affect people of all ages, with a high impact on their quality of life. Sex differences in incidence and prevalence have been reported, and there are also gender-specific issues that physicians should recognize. For women, there are multiple, important concerns regarding issues of body image and sexuality, menstruation, contraception, fertility, pregnancy, breastfeeding and menopause. This practice-based review focuses on the main themes that run through the life of women with inflammatory bowel diseases from puberty to menopause. Gastroenterologists who specialize in inflammatory bowel diseases and other physicians who see female patients with inflammatory bowel diseases should provide support for these problems and offer adequate therapy to ensure that their patients achieve the same overall well-being and health as do women without inflammatory bowel diseases.

Abstract
There are special considerations when treating anastomotic leak after restorative proctocolectomy and ileal pouch-anal anastomosis. The epidemiology, risk factors, anatomic considerations, diagnosis and management, as well as the short- and long-term consequences to the patient are unique to this patent population. Additionally, there are specific concerns such as "tip of the J" leaks, transanal management of anastomotic leak/presacral sinus, functional outcomes after leak, and considerations of redo pouch procedures.

Abstract
Restorative proctocolectomy with ileal pouch-anal anastomosis is an option for most patients with ulcerative colitis or familial adenomatous polyposis who require colectomy. Although the construction of an ileal pouch substantially improves patients' health-related quality of life, the surgery is, directly or indirectly, associated with various structural, inflammatory, and functional adverse sequelae. Furthermore, the surgical procedure does not completely abolish the risk for neoplasia. Patients with ileal pouches often present with extraintestinal, systemic inflammatory conditions. The International Ileal Pouch Consortium was established to create this consensus document on the diagnosis and classification of ileal pouch disorders using available evidence and the panellists' expertise. In a given individual, the condition of the pouch can change over time. Therefore, close monitoring of the activity and progression of the disease is essential to make accurate modifications in the diagnosis and classification in a timely manner.

Abstract
Ulcerative colitis, a chronic inflammatory condition that affects the colon from rectum to caecum, is characterized by periods of increased bowel movements, blood in feces, rectal urgency, tenesmus, and abdominal pain, with periods of remission and flares of disease, which negatively impact quality of life. A number of therapeutic options are available for patients with moderate-to-severe ulcerative colitis, however, no clear treatment algorithm exists. Therapeutic goals include short-term benefits for patients (i.e., the reduction/absence of symptoms, essentially stool frequency and rectal bleeding) and long-term benefits (i.e., sustained clinical remission, steroid-free remission, and mucosal healing). Therapies currently approved and available for the treatment of moderate-to-severe ulcerative colitis include monoclonal antibodies such as those targeting anti-tumor necrosis factor α (i.e., infliximab, adalimumab, golimumab), anti-adhesion molecules (i.e., vedolizumab), anti-interleukin 12/23 agents (i.e., ustekinumab), and Janus Kinase inhibitors (i.e., tofacitinib). Surgical approaches should also be considered in patients refractory to medical therapy or with complications (including toxic megacolon or colonic dysplasia/cancer). This review provides an overview of currently available treatment options for patients with moderate-to-severe ulcerative colitis and summarizes factors that should be considered during the therapeutic decision.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW In this review article, we address emerging evidence for the medical and surgical treatment of the hospitalized patient with ulcerative colitis. RECENT FINDINGS Ulcerative colitis is a chronic inflammatory disease involving the colon and rectum. About one-fifth of patients will be hospitalized from ulcerative colitis, and about 20-30%, experiencing an acute flare will undergo colectomy. Because of the significant clinical consequences, patients hospitalized need prompt evaluation for potential complications, stratification of disease severity, and a multidisciplinary team approach to therapy, which involves both the gastroenterologist and surgeon. Although corticosteroids remain first-line therapy, second-line medical rescue options, primarily infliximab or cyclosporine, are considered within 3-5 days of presentation. In conjunction, an early surgical consultation to present the possibility of a staged proctocolectomy as one of the therapeutic options is equally important. SUMMARY A coordinated multidisciplinary, individualized approach to treatment, involving the patient preferences throughout the process, is optimal in providing patient-centered effective care.

Abstract
The Italian Society of Colorectal Surgery (SICCR) promoted the project reported here, which consists of a Position Statement of Italian colorectal surgeons to address the surgical aspects of ulcerative colitis management. Members of the society were invited to express their opinions on several items proposed by the writing committee, based on evidence available in the literature. The results are presented, focusing on relevant points. The present paper is not an alternative to available guidelines; rather, it offers a snapshot of the attitudes of SICCR surgeons about the surgical treatment of ulcerative colitis. The committee was able to identify some points of major disagreement and suggested strategies to improve the quality of available data and acceptance of guidelines.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Various forms of hereditary polyposis have been described in the literature. Classical familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) is a rare, autosomal dominantly inherited disease which is caused by a germline mutation in the adenomatous polyposis coli gene (APC). Patients with this diagnosis successively develop multiple polyps of the colon. Left untreated, FAP almost inevitably leads to malignant transformation. INDICATION We present the case of a 37-year-old patient with histologically confirmed, stenotic adenocarcinoma of the descending colon and an initially suspected hereditary polyposis due to multiple polyps in the descending and sigmoid colon. METHODS The video describes the preoperative imaging as well as endoscopic findings and demonstrates the technique of a two-stage, robotically assisted proctocolectomy with ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (IPAA) and the creation of a temporary loop ileostomy. CONCLUSIONS With respect to the surgical treatment of classic FAP, restorative proctocolectomy (RPC) with ileal J-pouch construction can be regarded as an established standard procedure, despite controversy regarding various technical aspects. Minimally invasive strategies should be considered as an equivalent option compared to conventional techniques.
