Abstract
BACKGROUND Colonic stenting reduces morbidity and stoma formation for left-sided colon cancer obstruction, and a prolonged interval between stenting and surgery with neoadjuvant chemotherapy administered might result in a lower stoma rate and tumor reduction. OBJECTIVE The study aimed to evaluate the short-term outcomes of elective surgery following colonic stenting compared with elective surgery following colonic stenting and neoadjuvant chemotherapy in patients with left-sided colon cancer obstruction. DESIGN This is a prospective multicenter cohort study. SETTINGS This study was conducted at 5 medical centers. PATIENTS Patients ( n = 100) with acute left-sided colon cancer obstruction undergoing colonic stenting between December 2015 and December 2019 were included. INTERVENTIONS Patients were assigned to the stenting-alone or chemotherapy group. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES The primary outcomes measured were laparoscopic surgery and stoma rate. RESULTS Of the 100 patients who underwent colonic stenting, 52 were assigned to the stenting group and 48 were assigned to the chemotherapy group. No statistically significant differences were detected in stent-related complications. The adverse events associated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy were well tolerated. The level of hemoglobin (117.2 vs 107.6 g/L; p = 0.008), albumin (34.2 vs 31.5 g/L; p < 0.001), and prealbumin (0.19 vs 0.16 g/L; p = 0.001) was significantly increased, and the bowel wall thickness (1.09 vs 2.04 mm; p < 0.001) was significantly decreased preoperatively in the chemotherapy group compared with the stenting group. The number of mean harvested lymph nodes was greater in the chemotherapy group than in the stenting group (25.6 vs 21.8; p = 0.04). Laparoscopic surgery was performed more frequently (77.1% vs 40.4%; p < 0.001) and a stoma was created less frequently (10.4% vs 28.8%; p = 0.02) in the chemotherapy group than in the stenting group. LIMITATIONS This trial was limited by the nonrandomized design and a short follow-up period. CONCLUSIONS This study suggests that elective surgery following neoadjuvant chemotherapy and colonic stenting is a safe, effective, and well-tolerated treatment approach with a high laparoscopic resection rate and a low stoma rate.

RESULTADOS A CORTO PLAZO DE LA CIRUGA ELECTIVA SEGUIDO DE STENT METLICO AUTOEXPANDIBLE Y QUIMIOTERAPIA NEOADYUVANTE EN PACIENTES CON OBSTRUCCIN POR CNCER DE COLON IZQUIERDO ANTECEDENTES:La colocación de stents colónicos reduce la morbilidad y la formación de estomas por obstrucción por cáncer de colon izquierdo, y el intervalo prolongado entre la colocación de stents y la cirugía con quimioterapia neoadyuvante administrada podría resultar en una menor tasa de estomas y reducción del tumor.OBJETIVO:Evaluar los resultados a corto plazo de la cirugía electiva después de la colocación de stent en el colon en comparación con la cirugía electiva después de la colocación de stent en el colon y la quimioterapia neoadyuvante en pacientes con obstrucción por cáncer de colon izquierdo.DISEÑO:Estudio prospectivo de cohorte multicéntrico.ENTORNO CLINICO:Este estudio se realizó en 5 centros médicos.PACIENTES:Se incluyeron pacientes (n=100) con obstrucción aguda por cáncer de colon izquierdo que se sometieron a colocación de stent colónico entre diciembre de 2015 y diciembre de 2019.INTERVENCIONES:Los pacientes fueron asignados al grupo de stent solo o quimioterapia.MEDIDAS DE RESULTADO PRINCIPALES:Los resultados primarios medidos fueron la cirugía laparoscópica y la tasa de ostomía.RESULTADOS:De los 100 pacientes que se sometieron a la colocación de stent colónico, 52 fueron asignados al grupo de colocación de stent y 48 al grupo de quimioterapia. No se detectaron diferencias estadísticamente significativas en las complicaciones relacionadas con el stent. Los eventos adversos asociados con la quimioterapia neoadyuvante fueron bien tolerados. Hemoglobina (117,2 g/l vs. 107,6 g/l; p = 0,008), albúmina (34,2 g/l vs. 31,5 g/l; p < 0,001) y prealbúmina (0,19 g/l vs. 0,16 g/l; p = 0,001) aumentaron significativamente y el grosor de la pared intestinal (1,09 mm vs. 2,04 mm; p < 0,001) disminuyó significativamente antes de la operación en el grupo de quimioterapia en comparación con el grupo de colocación de stent. El número medio de ganglios linfáticos extraídos fue mayor en el grupo de quimioterapia que en el grupo de stent (25,6 vs. 21,8; p = 0,04). La cirugía laparoscópica se realizó con mayor frecuencia (77,1 % vs. 40,4 %; p < 0,001) y se creó un estoma con menos frecuencia (10,4 % vs. 28,8 % ; p = 0,02) en el grupo de quimioterapia que en el grupo de colocación de stent.LIMITACIONES:Este ensayo estuvo limitado por el diseño no aleatorio y el corto período de seguimiento.CONCLUSIONES:Este estudio sugiere que la cirugía electiva después de la quimioterapia neoadyuvante y la colocación de stent colónico es un tratamiento seguro, efectivo y bien tolerado, con una alta tasa de resección laparoscópica y una baja tasa de estoma.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A considerable number of patients with colon cancer present with a colonic obstruction. The use of self-expanding metallic stents (SEMS) as a bridge to surgery (BTS) in potential curative patients with left-sided colonic cancer obstruction remains debatable. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the 5-year oncological outcomes of using a SEMS as a BTS. METHODS All patients with left-sided malignant colon obstruction who underwent curative surgery with no metastasis upon presentation between March 2009 and May 2013 were retrospectively reviewed and analyzed. RESULTS A total of 45 patients were included, 28 patients underwent upfront surgery, and 17 patients had a stent as a bridge to surgery. T4 stage was statistically significantly higher in patients who had a SEMS as a BTS (35.3% vs. 10.7%) (p-value 0.043). The mean duration in days of the SEMS to surgery was 13.76 (SD 10.08). TNM stage 3 was a prognostic factor toward distant metastasis (HR 5.05). When comparing patients who had upfront surgery to those who had a SEMS as a BTS, higher 5-year disease-free survival (75% vs. 72%) and 5-year overall survival (89% vs. 82%) were seen in patients who had upfront surgery. However, both were statistically insignificant. CONCLUSION Using self-expanding metallic stents as a bridge to surgery yields comparable 5-year survival and disease-free survival rates to upfront emergency surgery. The decision to use SEMS versus opting for emergency surgery should be made after careful patient selection and with the assistance of experienced endoscopists. TRIAL REGISTRATION N/A.

Abstract
Luminal strictures can occur as part of many different gastrointestinal (GI) disorders anywhere along the GI tract and affect all age groups. The end goal of managing any stricture is to re-establish an adequate and durable luminal patency that is sufficient to resolve the presenting clinical symptoms. Treatment options can be generally categorized into medical, endoscopic, and surgical. However, within each of these categories, multiple different options are available. Therefore, choosing the best treatment modality is often challenging and depends on multiple factors including the type, location, and complexity of the stricture, as well as the preference of the treating physician. In this article, we will review the most current literature regarding foregut strictures, particularly esophageal and gastric, beyond dilation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The surgical management of left-sided malignant large bowel obstruction (MLBO) is associated with high morbidity and mortality. Recently, self-expandable metallic colonic stent (SEMS) and transanal decompression tube (TDT) used as a 'bridge to surgery' (BTS) have been widely used. This study aims to compare the clinical outcomes and oncological safety of SEMS and TDT as BTS to transform MLBO into elective surgery. METHODS Between February 2013 and March 2019, 62 patients with MLBO received SEMS (n = 32) or TDT (n = 30), and elective one-stage surgery later. We evaluated decompression efficiency and oncological safety in selective operation in TDT and SEMS groups, including preoperative preparation time, surgical approach, number of lymphatic dissection and vascular invasion, ulcer formation and histopathological findings of resected specimens. RESULTS The preoperative preparation time in the SEMS group was shorter than that of the TDT group (P < 0.05). However, there was no significant difference between the groups in postoperative length of hospital stay (P > 0.05). The number of vascular invasions in the TDT group was less than that in the SEMS group (P < 0.05). Furthermore, the risk of wound abscess and ulcer formation in the TDT group was significantly lower than that in the SEMS group (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION Our findings suggest that SEMS is associated with a relatively poor oncological outcome and the placement of TDT as BTS in MLBO patients may be a better alternation.

Abstract
Patients with acute colorectal obstruction due to malignancy in the right-sided colon are treated with primary resection and anastomosis. However, considering the generally poor status and prognosis, less-invasive, palliative treatment is desirable, particularly for unresectable malignancies. An ileostomy is useful, but the patient must manage the stoma, which worsens the quality of life. We developed a palliative surgical procedure, termed the “Separation surgery of the right-sided colon,” for treating an obstruction due to unresectable right-sided colon cancer. We identified and divided the ileum and the transverse colon and anastomosed the upper ileum to the lower transverse colon. Then, we created a mucous fistula with the loose ends of the lower ileum and the upper transverse colon. We performed this procedure in five patients. Stoma pouches were unnecessary. No comorbidities were observed, including anastomotic leakage. The “Separation surgery of the right-sided colon” was useful as palliative surgery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There is controversy surrounding the efficacy and safety of colonic stents as a bridge to surgery compared with immediate resection in patients presenting with an acute malignant large bowel obstruction. METHODS Retrospective longitudinal cohort study using the NYS SPARCS Database. Patients with acute malignant large bowel obstruction who either had stent followed by elective surgery within 3 weeks (bridge to surgery) or underwent immediate resection between October 2009 and June 2016 in the state of New York were included. The primary outcome was rate of stoma creation at index resection. Secondary outcomes were 90-day readmission, reoperation, procedural complications, and discharge disposition. RESULTS A total of 3059 patients were included, n = 2917 (95.4%) underwent an immediate resection and n = 142 (4.6%) underwent bridge to surgery. We analyzed 139 patients in propensity score-matched groups. Patients in the bridge to surgery group were less likely than those in the immediate resection group to get a stoma at the time of surgery (OR 0.33, 95% CI 0.18-0.60). They were also less likely to be discharged to a rehabilitation facility or require a home health aide upon discharge (OR 0.36, 95% CI 0.22-0.61). There were no differences in rates of 90-day readmission, reoperation, or procedural complications between groups. DISCUSSION Colonic stenting as a bridge to surgery leads to less stoma creation, a significant quality of life advantage, compared with immediate resection. Patients should be counseled regarding these potential benefits when the technology is available.

Abstract
AIM There is a requirement for an expansive and up to date review of the management of emergency colorectal conditions seen in adults. The primary objective is to provide detailed evidence-based guidelines for the target audience of general and colorectal surgeons who are responsible for an adult population and who practise in Great Britain and Ireland. METHODS Surgeons who are elected members of the Association of Coloproctology of Great Britain and Ireland Emergency Surgery Subcommittee were invited to contribute various sections to the guidelines. They were directed to produce a pathology-based document using literature searches that were systematic, comprehensible, transparent and reproducible. Levels of evidence were graded. Each author was asked to provide a set of recommendations which were evidence-based and unambiguous. These recommendations were submitted to the whole guideline group and scored. They were then refined and submitted to a second vote. Only those that achieved >80% consensus at level 5 (strongly agree) or level 4 (agree) after two votes were included in the guidelines. RESULTS All aspects of care (excluding abdominal trauma) for emergency colorectal conditions have been included along with 122 recommendations for management. CONCLUSION These guidelines provide an up to date and evidence-based summary of the current surgical knowledge in the management of emergency colorectal conditions and should serve as practical text for clinicians managing colorectal conditions in the emergency setting.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Placement of self-expanding metal stents has been increasingly adopted as a bridge to surgery in patients presenting with obstructed left-sided colorectal cancers. The optimal bridging time has yet to be widely established, hence this retrospective study aims to determine the optimal bridging time to elective surgery post endoluminal stenting. PATIENTS AND METHODS All patients who underwent colorectal stenting for large bowel obstruction in a single, tertiary hospital in Singapore between January 2003 and December 2017 were retrospectively identified. Patients' baseline demographics, tumour characteristics, stent-related complications, intra-operative details, post-operative complications and oncological outcomes were analysed. RESULTS Of the 53 patients who successfully underwent colonic stenting for malignant left sided obstruction, 33.96% of patients underwent surgery within two weeks of stent placement while 66.04% of patients underwent surgery after 2 weeks of stent placement. Univariate analysis between both groups did not demonstrate significant differences in postoperative complications and stoma formation. Significant differences were observed between both groups for stent complications (38.89% vs 8.57%, p = 0.022), on-table decompression (38.89% vs 2.86%, p = 0.001) and systemic recurrence (11.11% vs 40.00%, p = 0.030). Increased bridging interval to surgery (OR 13.16, CI 1.37-126.96, p = 0.026) was a significant risk factor for systemic recurrence on multivariate analysis. CONCLUSIONS Patients undergoing definitive surgery within 2 weeks of colonic stenting may have better oncological outcomes without compromising on postoperative outcomes. Further prospective studies are required to compare outcomes between emergency surgery and different bridging intervals.

[PMID: 32855747 PMCID: PMC7443225 DOI: 10.1155/2020/8860328] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/07/2020] [Revised: 04/30/2020] [Accepted: 07/27/2020] [Indexed: 12/19/2022]
Abstract
Intestinal obstruction, a life-threatening problem, often occurs in patients with advanced colorectal cancer (CRC). However, the cause of obstruction is still unknown. Very few prediction models for intestinal obstruction in CRC exist, and their results are unreliable. Therefore, we investigated whether preoperative serum tumour markers (STMs) combined with haematological and biochemical markers could be used as predictors. We retrospectively analysed 1474 patients with CRC who underwent radical resection after admission. Several clinical features, STMs, and serum biochemical and haematological indicators were analysed. Predictors of intestinal obstruction were analysed with univariate and multivariate logistic regression. The accuracy of the multivariate predictors of obstruction was measured by the area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve (AUC). The Kaplan-Meier method was used to create survival curves. Obstruction was found more in males (62.18%), never-smokers (73.95%), the left colon (54.20%), the tumour diameter > 4.5 cm (55.88%), high differentiation (89.50%), and negative nerve invasion (70.17%). The serum tumour markers (STMs) and peripheral blood routine indexes (PBRI) were significantly associated with obstructive status (p < 0.05). Multivariate analysis demonstrated that the neutrophil and lymphocyte counts, carcinoembryonic antigen, carbohydrate antigen 19-9, carbohydrate antigen 125, albumin, alkaline phosphatase, gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase, total protein, and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio were predictors of intestinal obstruction (p < 0.05). The AUC for the curve with all the eight factors was 0.715 (95% confidence interval: 0.673-0.758). The STMs and PBRI were related to the obstruction status of the patients, and they could be used in combination with other clinical factors to significantly improve diagnosis and management of intestinal obstruction in CRC patients.

Newly developed self-expandable Niti-S MD colonic metal stent for malignant colonic obstruction. World J Gastrointest Surg 2020; 12:138-148. [PMID: 32426093 PMCID: PMC7215972 DOI: 10.4240/wjgs.v12.i4.138] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/21/2019] [Revised: 03/23/2020] [Accepted: 03/26/2020] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Colonic stents are increasingly used to treat acute malignant colonic obstructions. The WallFlex and Niti-S D type stents are the commonly used self-expandable metallic stents available in Japan since 2012. WallFlex stent has a risk of stent-related perforation because of its axial force, while the Niti-S D type stent has a risk of obstructive colitis because of its weaker radial force. Niti-S MD type stents not only overcome these limitations but also permit delivery through highly flexible-tipped smaller-caliber colonoscopes.
AIM To compare the efficacy and safety of the newly developed Niti-S MD type colonic stents.
METHODS This single-center retrospective observational study included 110 patients with endoscopic self-expandable metallic stents placed between November 2011 and December 2018: WallFlex (Group W, n = 37), Niti-S D type (Group N, n = 53), and Niti-S MD type (Group MD, n = 20). The primary outcome was clinical success, defined as a resolution of obstructive colonic symptoms, confirmed by clinical and radiological assessment within 48 h. The secondary outcome was technical success, defined as accurate stent placement with adequate stricture coverage on the first attempt without complications.
RESULTS The technical success rate was 100% in Groups W, N, and MD, and the overall clinical success rate was 89.2% (33/37), 96.2% (51/53), and 100% (20/20) in Groups W, N, and MD, respectively. Early adverse events included pain (3/37, 8.1%), poor expansion (1/37, 2.7%), and fever (1/37, 2.6%) in Group W and perforation due to obstructive colitis (2/53, 3.8%) in Group N (likely due to poor expansion). Late adverse events (after 7 d) included stent-related perforations (4/36, 11.1%) and stent occlusion (1/36, 2.8%) in Group W and stent occlusion (2/51, 3.9%) in Group N. The stent-related perforation rate in Group W was significantly higher than that in Group N (P < 0.05). No adverse event was observed in Group MD.
CONCLUSION In our early and limited experience, the newly developed Niti-S MD type colonic stent was effective and safe for treating acute malignant colonic obstruction.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Malignant bowel obstruction (MBO) is a common event for end-stage gastrointestinal cancer patients. Previous studies had demonstrated manifestations and clinical management of MBO with mixed malignancies. There still lack reports of the surgical treatment of MBO.
AIM To analyze the short-term outcomes and prognosis of palliative surgery for MBO caused by gastrointestinal cancer.
METHODS A retrospective chart review of 61 patients received palliative surgery between January 2016 to October 2018 was performed, of which 31 patients underwent massive debulking surgery (MDS) and 30 underwent ostomy/by-pass surgery (OBS). The 60-d symptom palliation rate, 30-d morbidity and mortality, and overall survival rates were compared between the two groups.
RESULTS The overall symptom palliation rate was 75.4% (46/61); patients in the MDS group had significantly higher symptom palliation rate than OBS group (90% vs 61.2%, P = 0.016). Patients with colorectal cancer who were in the MDS group showed significantly higher symptom improvement rates compared to the OBS group (overall, 76.4%; MDS, 61.5%; OBS, 92%; P = 0.019). However, patients with gastric cancer did not show a significant difference in symptom palliation rate between the MDS and OBS groups (OBS, 60%; MDS, 80%; P = 1.0). The median survival time in the MDS group was significantly longer than in the OBS group (10.9 mo vs 5.3 mo, P = 0.05).
CONCLUSION For patients with MBO caused by peritoneal metastatic colorectal cancer, MDS can improve symptom palliation rates and prolong survival, without increasing mortality and morbidity rates.

Abstract
Colorectal cancer is the most common cancer in Japan. Approximately 10%-20% of the patients with colorectal cancer present with large bowel obstruction, and those who present with malignant colonic obstruction (MCO) require urgent decompression because MCO can cause electrolytic fluid imbalance, colonic necrosis, bacterial translocation, and death. Placement of colonic stents (self-expandable metallic stents) for MCO is a major and standard endoscopic treatment that has been available since 2012 in Japan. This review presents the current conditions and future prospects of this procedure based on the literature. The current indication of colonic stent placement is malignant colorectal stenosis. One of the purposes of using stents is palliative treatment; further, its advantages over emergency surgery with colostomy include avoidance of colostomy, relief of obstruction, shorter hospitalization, and better quality of life. In addition, stent placement can also be used as a bridge to surgery since the duration of the hospitalization is shorter and postoperative complications, colostomy rates, and mortality rates are lower with elective than with emergency surgery. Although recent studies have reported low complication rates related to colonic stents, complications may still occur, highlighting the importance of good preparation, adequate staffing, backup systems, and informed consent. The current major problem related to colonic stents is the lack of evidence on patients' long-term prognoses for bridge to surgery purposes, awaiting the results of ongoing clinical research.

Abstract
Patients with a malignant large bowel obstruction are often late in seeking medical attention and are usually in poor health by the time a complete blockage is apparent. Emergency surgery in this setting, particularly in a patient with significant comorbidities, often requires the creation of an ostomy and can result in postoperative complications that delay the administration of adjuvant chemotherapy. This recent case at our center illustrates how the use of a colon stent, as a bridge to surgery, can help patients avoid the need for a stoma and reduce surgical complications.

Abstract
Background and Objective: Colonic stenting in left-sided tumor is being commonly used. However, placing a stent in the flexure tumors is rare because it is technically more difficult. In this study, we aimed to retrospectively screen patients with flexure tumors admitted to our clinic who were treated using a colonic stent and discuss our findings. Methods: Patients admitted to the emergency department for obstructive colonic tumors between 2012 and 2017 were retrospectively evaluated, and 21 patients treated using stents were included in the study. The expandable metal stent (Wallflex®, Boston Scientific, Marlborough, MA, USA) was placed at the obstruction through the lead wire. Results: The mean age of the patients was 62 years, and the ratio of females to males was 3:18. Splenic flexure tumors were detected in 18 patients and hepatic flexure tumors in 3 patients. Seven of the patients were stented for palliative purposes. Fourteen of the cases underwent surgery. Three of them underwent laparoscopic surgery and eleven underwent open surgery. Conclusions: Preoperative stenting in colonic flexura tumors is associated with faster healing, less postoperative complications, lower rates of colostomy, and higher rates of minimally invasive surgery, and can be safely used at experienced centers.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Bowel obstruction (BO) is a complication that commonly affects patients with colorectal cancer (CRC). BO causes severe outcomes, and its treatment leads to a dilemma for many surgeons. Moreover, the factors correlated to BO in preoperative CRC patients remain unclear. The objectives of this study were to investigate the clinical characteristics of BO to identify risk predictors and to construct a BO prediction model with preoperative CRC patients. METHODS A large-scale, retrospective cohort, population-based study analyzed the data of 11,814 patients obtained from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results and Medicare claims-linked databases (SEER-M database). Patients aged ≥ 66 years and primarily diagnosed with CRC from 1992 to 2009 were divided into BO and non-BO groups. Cox proportional hazards regression models were used to determine predictors, and then, a nomogram was constructed by those predictors. RESULTS A total of 11,814 patients (5293 men and 6251 women) were identified. In multivariate analysis, 14 factors were found to be associated with BO including age, race, marital status, residence location, T category, M category, primary tumor site, histologic type, histologic grade, tumor size, history of alcoholism, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, abdominal pain, and anemia. A nomogram predicting the 90- and 180-day rates of BO was built for the preoperative CRC patients with a C-index of 0.795. CONCLUSIONS This study identified 14 BO-related factors, and a statistical model was constructed to predict the onset of BO in preoperative CRC patients. The obtained data may guide decision-making for the intervention of patients at risk for BO.

Abstract
Background Randomized controlled trials have not provided clear evidence for the use of self-expanding metal stents (SEMS) for colonic cancer obstruction. Existing observational research mainly originates from highly specialized single-center settings with limited generalizability. The conduct of population-based nationwide studies is possible by using Danish medical databases. However, the quality of the coding of SEMS procedures in these databases is unclear. Methods From March 1, 2010 through December 31, 2013, we compared the registration of SEMS procedures among obstructive colorectal cancer patients in the Danish National Patient Register (DNPR) and the Danish Colorectal Cancer Group (DCCG) database to the registration in a prospective SEMS database (the reference standard). Results Ninety-three patients were included in the reference standard for the evaluation of DNPR data. In the DNPR, only two patients were incorrectly registered (positive predictive value [PPV]=98%, 95% CI: 92%–100%) whereas six patients were not captured by the DNPR (sensitivity =94%, 95% CI: 87%–98%). For the evaluation of the DCCG database, the reference standard included 54 patients. Only two patients in the DCCG database were incorrectly recorded (PPV =95%, 95% CI: 82%–99%), whereas 19 patients were not captured by the DCCG database (sensitivity =65%, 95% CI: 51%–77%). Conclusion We found high PPV and sensitivity of SEMS coding in the DNPR, supporting the use of these data in future research. The PPV of SEMS data in the DCCG database was high, but the sensitivity was low, suggesting that data on SEMS treatment from this database should be used with caution.

Abstract
Background Self-expandable metallic stenting (SEMS) for malignant colorectal obstruction (MCO) as a bridge to elective surgery (BTS) is a widely used procedure. The aim of this study was to assess short-term outcomes of SEMS for MCO as BTS. Methods This study analyzed pooled data from BTS patients who were enrolled in two multicenter prospective single-arm observational clinical studies that used different stent types. Both studies were conducted by the Japan Colonic Stent Safe Procedure Research Group (JCSSPRG). The first study evaluated the WallFlex™ colonic stent for BTS or palliative treatment (PAL) from May 2012 to October 2013 and the second evaluated the Niti-S™ colonic stent from October 2013 to May 2014. Fifty-three facilities in Japan participated in the studies. Before each study started, the procedure had been shared with the participating institutions by posting details of the standard methods of SEMS placement on the JCSSPRG website. Patients were followed until discharged after surgery. Results A total of 723 consecutive patients were enrolled in the two studies. After excluding nine patients, the remaining 714 patients were evaluated as a per-protocol cohort. SEMS placement was performed in 426 patients (312 WallFlex and 114 Niti-S) as BTS and in 288 as PAL. In the 426 BTS patients, the technical success rate was 98.1% (418/426). The clinical success rate was 93.8% (392/418). SEMS-related preoperative complications occurred in 8.5% of patients (36/426), perforations in 1.9% (8/426), and stent migration in 1.2% (5/426). Primary anastomosis was possible in 91.8% of patients (391/426), 3.8% of whom (15/393) had anastomosis leakage. The overall stoma creation rate was 10.6% (45/426). The postoperative complication rate was 16.9% (72/426) and mortality rate was 0.5% (2/426). Conclusions SEMS placement for MCO as BTS is safe and effective with respect to peri-procedural outcomes. Further investigations are needed to confirm long-term oncological outcomes.

Lee YJ, Yoon JY, Park JJ, Park SJ, Kim JH, Youn YH, Kim TI, Park H, Kim WH, Cheon JH. Clinical outcomes and factors related to colonic perforations in patients receiving self-expandable metal stent insertion for malignant colorectal obstruction. Gastrointest Endosc 2018; 87:1548-1557.e1. [PMID: 29452077 DOI: 10.1016/j.gie.2018.02.006] [Citation(s) in RCA: 34] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/03/2017] [Accepted: 02/02/2018] [Indexed: 12/11/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Although colonic perforation is a dreadful adverse event associated with stent placement, data on this topic are sparse. We aimed to investigate the clinical outcomes of colonic perforation and factors related to its occurrence in patients who received self-expandable metal stents (SEMSs) for malignant colorectal obstruction. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed the data of 474 patients with malignant colorectal obstruction who received endoscopic SEMS insertion from April 2004 to May 2011 in Severance Hospital and Gangnam Severance Hospital. Early perforation, defined as perforation occurring within 2 weeks, was assessed in bridge-to-surgery (n = 164) and palliative stent placement patient groups (n = 310). Delayed perforation was analyzed using data from the palliative stent placement group alone. RESULTS The technical and clinical success rates were 90.5% and 81.0%, respectively. Early and delayed perforations occurred in 2.7% (13/474) and 2.7% (8/301) of patients, respectively. Among 21 patients with perforation, 14 (66.7%) received emergency surgery and 5 (23.8%) died within 30 days after perforation. Regarding the perforation-related factors, age ≥70 years (odds ratio, 3.276; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.041-10.309) and sigmoid colonic location (odds ratio, 7.706; 95% CI, 1.681-35.317) were independently associated with occurrence of early perforation. Stent location in the flexure (hazard ratio, 17.573; 95% CI, 2.004-154.093) and absence of peritoneal carcinomatosis (hazard ratio, 6.139; 95% CI, 1.150-32.776) were significantly associated with delayed perforation. CONCLUSIONS The perforation-related 30-day mortality rate was 23.8%. Older age and sigmoid colonic location were significantly associated with occurrence of early perforation, whereas flexure location and absence of peritoneal carcinomatosis were related to delayed perforation.

Abstract
PURPOSE Self-expandable metallic stents (SEMS) may be used in acute, obstructing, left-sided colorectal cancer (CRC) to avoid high-risk emergency surgery. However, the data regarding the long-term effects of SEMS as a bridge to surgery are limited and contradictory. Our aim is to analyze the long-term oncological outcomes of SEMS compared with surgery. METHODS Between January 2006 and November 2013, a total of 855 patients with stage III CRC were regularly followed at the CRC clinic of Severance Hospital, Seoul, Korea. We retrospectively evaluated their 5-year disease-free survival (DFS), 5-year overall survival (OS), and 5-year cancer-specific survival (CSS). RESULTS There were 94 patients in the SEMS group, 17 in the emergent-surgery group, and 744 in the elective-surgery group. In the short term, the rate of permanent stoma formation was significantly higher in the emergent-surgery group than in the SEMS group (p = 0.030), although the median hospital stay and overall complication rate were comparable. During the long-term follow-up period, oncological outcomes including 5-year DFS (70.2 vs 52.9%; p = 0.210), OS (70.2 vs 52.9%; p = 0.148), and CSS (79.8 vs 70.6%; p = 0.342) were not different between the SEMS group and the emergent-surgery group. Multivariate analysis showed emergent operation to be a significant risk factor of DFS (hazard ratio [HR], 3.117; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.498-6.489; p = 0.002). CONCLUSIONS Preoperative SEMS insertion does not adversely affect long-term oncological outcomes or patient survival.

Abstract
PURPOSE Malignant bowel obstruction is a complication of colorectal carcinoma or metastasis from other carcinoma, and it causes significant damage on the condition of elderly patients; however, the self-expandable metallic stents (SEMSs) have been effectively used either for palliation or for bridging to the surgical procedure for this condition. The aim of this study was to investigate the factors influencing long-term outcomes of old-aged patients with SEMS for large bowel obstruction to develop the strategy for those patients in the community medicine. METHODS We performed a retrospective review of 42 patients with a median age of 83.0 years (range, 65-99 years), who underwent SEMS placement for malignant colorectal obstruction between 2006 and 2015 in our hospital. Univariate and multivariate logistic regressions were performed on data from the patients to assess the factors affecting 6-month survival without stent dysfunction. RESULTS The study population comprised 24 females (57.1%) and 18 males (42.9%). Of these, 38 patients (90.5%) received SEMS as palliation, whereas 4 patients (9.5%) underwent subsequent surgery. SEMSs were successfully inserted in 97.6% of patients. The median duration of follow-up was 205.0 days (range, 20-1377 days). On multivariate analysis, shorter stents (< 10 cm) yielded better outcomes than longer stents (≥ 10 cm) (P = 0.041), and the Cox proportional hazard model also indicated that shorter stents (P = 0.036) predicted longer event-free survival. CONCLUSIONS Elderly patients with malignant bowel obstruction receiving shorter stents had longer event-free survival after stenting with better general condition.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study aims to discuss the safety and feasibility of a combined treatment consisting of stent insertion and elective surgery for left-sided colorectal cancer with malignant obstruction. METHODS Randomized clinical trials (RCTs) that discussed the safety and feasibility of stenting as a bridge to surgery in malignant colorectal cancer were identified in a search of medical databases, including PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and SCIENCE. Each paper's quality was assessed using the Jadad scale. A meta-analysis was conducted using RevMan 5.3, and statistical heterogeneity between RCTs was defined as I2>50%. RESULTS Nine RCTs included 594 patients were selected and analyzed. Of the included patients, 281 underwent stent insertion followed by elective surgery (SG group), and 313 underwent emergency surgery (EG group). The meta-analysis revealed that the patients in the SG group had a higher one-stage anastomosis rate. Patients in the SG had lower mortality rates and minor complications. There was no significant difference in anastomotic leakage between the two groups. The funnel plot showed that there was no publication bias in these outcomes. CONCLUSION Stenting as a bridge to surgery was safe and feasible in left-sided colorectal cancer with malignant obstruction. Compared with the patients in the EG group, the SG patients had an improved primary anastomosis rate and experienced no increase in the risk of other complications.

Abstract
PURPOSE Endoscopic stenting is used with increasing frequency to treat colorectal conditions. Little is known about what influences outcome. This study aimed to determine the impact of various factors on the short- and long-term results of colorectal stenting. METHODS A retrospective review was conducted of all endoscopic stenting procedures performed by a colorectal surgeon at a tertiary referral institution between 2003 and 2013. Main outcome measures included technical success, clinical success, complications, and predictors of outcome. RESULTS Of the stent procedures, 183 were performed in 165 patients. The majority of patients (90 %) presented with a malignant obstruction (intrinsic colonic vs. extrinsic non-colonic). Carcinomatosis was present in 22 % of patients with malignancy, and it was associated with lower technical success compared to non-carcinomatosis (adjusted odds ratio [AOR] 0.2 [95 % confidence interval (CI) 0.1-0.8]; p = 0.021). Colonic malignancy was associated with higher clinical success compared to non-colonic malignancy (AOR 3.8 [95 % CI 1.4-10.3]; p = 0.009). Carcinomatosis increased the risk of complications compared to non-carcinomatosis (AOR 3.2 [95 % CI 1.0-10.0]; p = 0.049). The risk of complication was higher when a stent was deployed in the rectum compared to the colon (AOR 4.1 [95 % CI 1.5-11.7]; p = 0.008). The use of a covered stent was associated with higher complication rate compared to a non-covered stent (AOR 13.6 [95 % CI 2.6-71.2]; p = 0.002). Balloon dilation was associated with an increased risk of complications (AOR 4.6 [95 % CI 1.3-16.2]; p = 0.017). CONCLUSIONS Carcinomatosis was associated with lower technical success rate. Clinical success was higher in patients with a primary colonic malignancy. The use of a covered stent, balloon dilation of stricture, lesions in the rectum, and carcinomatosis were associated with higher risk for complications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND STUDY AIMS Self-Expanding Metallic Stents (SEMS) are a surgery-sparing option for malignant colonic obstruction. They can be inserted as a "bridge to surgery" (BTS) for potentially curable disease, or as a palliative measure, thereby avoiding the higher morbidity and mortality associated with surgery. The objective of this study was to report our local experience of left-sided colonic stents. METHODS Data on 49 patients was collected retrospectively from Oct 2008 to Nov 2014 at our cancer centre. This included demographics, baseline clinical characteristics, indications for SEMS placement (bridge to surgery/palliative), technical and clinical success, complications, and the mean patency of duration. Survival in both groups was also plotted on a Kaplan-Meier chart. RESULTS A total of 49 patients with colorectal carcinoma (CRC) of the left side were enrolled. The mean age was 50 years (range 18-86). Ninety percent of patients had disease involving the rectum, sigmoid colon, or both. Forty-seven percent (n = 23) of patients had stent insertion as a BTS, whereas 53% (n = 26) had the procedure with palliative intent. Technical and clinical success rates were 96 and 88%, respectively. The clinical success rate of the palliative arm was lower than that of the BTS arm (p = 0.024). 87.5% (n = 42) had no procedure-related complications. Technical failure, perforation, and stent migration/expulsion, were each observed in 4% of cases. Mean stent patency duration was 83.9 days. CONCLUSION SEMS insertion for left-sided malignant colonic obstruction is a safe and effective procedure when used either as a bridge to surgery or with palliative intent.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Compared to emergency surgery, self-expandable metallic stents are effective and safe when used as bridge-to-surgery (BTS) in operable patients with acute colorectal cancer obstruction. In this study, we report data on the new conformable colonic stents. OBJECTIVES To evaluate clinical effectiveness of conformable stents as BTS in patients with acute colorectal cancer obstruction. DESIGN This was a retrospective study. SETTINGS The study was conducted at six Italian Endoscopic Units. PATIENTS Data about patients with acute malignant colorectal obstruction were collected between 2007 and 2012. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES All patients were treated with conformable stents as BTS. Technical success, clinical success, rate of primary anastomosis and colostomy, early and late complications were evaluated. RESULTS Data about 88 patients (62 males) were reviewed in this study. Conformable SEMS were correctly deployed in 86 out of 88 patients, with resolution of obstruction in all treated patients. Tumor resection with primary anastomosis was possible in all patients. A temporary colostomy was performed in 40. Early complications did not occur. Late complications occurred in 11 patients. Stent migration was significantly higher in patients treated with partially-covered stents compared to the uncovered group (35% vs. 0%, P<0.001). Endoscopical re-intervention was required in 12% of patients. One patient with rectal cancer had an anastomotic dehiscence after surgery and he was successfully treated with endoscopic clipping. One year after surgery, all patients were alive and local recurrence have not been documented. LIMITATIONS This was a retrospective and uncontrolled study. CONCLUSIONS Preliminary data from this large case series are encouraging, with a high rate of technical and clinical success and low rate of clinically relevant complications. Partially-covered SEMS should be avoided in order to reduce the risk of endoscopic re-intervention.

Abstract
PURPOSE Little is known about predictable clinical factors associated with the occurrence of malignant large bowel obstruction (MLBO) in incurable stage IV colorectal cancer (CRC) patients undergoing medical treatment. This study investigates the clinical characteristics associated with MLBO that occurred while patients with stage IV CRC were receiving chemotherapy. METHODS A total of 216 patients who were diagnosed with stage IV CRC without bowel obstruction and who received chemotherapy between May 2005 and June 2012 were retrospectively included in this study. Patients were divided into an "obstruction group" and a "non-obstruction group" based on whether they did or did not develop MLBO during chemotherapy or follow-up, respectively. The initial endoscopic findings and clinical information were retrospectively reviewed and compared between the two groups. RESULTS Forty-six patients (21.3 %) developed MLBO during the treatment or follow-up periods. The mean duration between diagnosis and MLBO was 9.8 ± 9.3 months. After adjusting for clinically relevant factors, MLBO development was independently associated with the following factors: higher initial tumor-occupying circumference (HR 1.030 [95 % CI, 1.012-1.049], P = 0.001), longer initial horizontal tumor width (HR 1.035 [95 % CI, 1.011-1.059], P = 0.004), primary tumor location at a turning point in the colon (HR 2.404 [95 % CI, 1.185-4.877], P = 0.015), and the presence of primary tumor ulceration at presentation (HR 3.767 [95 % CI, 1.882-7.538], P < 0.001). MLBO development was not associated with tumor response to chemotherapy. CONCLUSION In patients with stage IV CRC, MLBO development during chemotherapy treatment is associated with tumor ulceration, location, circumference, and width at diagnosis.

Harilingam MR, Khushal A, Aikoye A. Self-expanding metal stenting for obstructing left colon cancer: A district hospital experience. Indian J Gastroenterol 2016; 35:305-9.

Abstract
Stenting of malignant colonic obstructions using self-expanding metal stents (SEMS) is commonly used for palliation and can be used as an interim procedure prior to definitive surgery. We retrospectively reviewed prospectively collected data from all consecutive colonic stenting procedures undertaken between September 2007 and December 2014 at a district general hospital. Technical and clinical success rates, mortality, colonic perforation, and other complications were documented and analyzed. Sixty-four colonic stenting procedures were undertaken. Fifty-three (83 %) were for palliation and eleven (17 %) were performed as a bridge to definitive surgery. Technical (98.4 %) and clinical (89.9 %) success rates were excellent. The single documented failure was secondary to complete luminal obstruction. Three stent occlusions (4.6 %), one colonic perforation (1.5 %), and one migration were encountered. There were no procedure-related deaths. Colonic stenting for obstructing left-sided colon cancer is a safe and effective procedure, even in the district general hospital setting. The use of SEMS as a bridge to elective surgery balances surgical and oncological considerations and, therefore, is most appropriate for high surgical risk patients in this setting.

Abstract
Background and Objectives: Colonic stenting has been used in the setting of malignant obstruction to avoid an emergent colectomy. We sought to determine whether preoperative placement of a colonic stent decreases morbidity and the rate of colostomy formation. Methods: Cases of obstructing sigmoid, rectosigmoid, and rectal cancer from January 1, 2010, to December 31, 2011, were identified in the Nationwide Inpatient Sample (NIS) database. All patients were treated at hospitals in the United States, and the database generated national estimates. Postoperative complications, mortality, and the rate of colostomy formation were analyzed. Results: Of the estimated 7891 patients who presented with obstructing sigmoid, rectosigmoid, or rectal cancer necessitating intervention, 12.1% (n = 956) underwent placement of a colonic stent, and the remainder underwent surgery without stent placement. Of the patients who underwent stenting, 19.9% went on to have colon resection or stoma creation during the same admission. Patients who underwent preoperative colonic stent placement had a lower rate of total postoperative complications (10.5% vs 21.7%; P < .01). There was no significant difference in mortality (4.7% vs 4.2%; P = .69). The rate of colostomy formation was more than 2-fold higher in patients who did not undergo preoperative stenting (42.5% vs 19.5%; P < .01). Preoperative stenting was associated with increased use of laparoscopy (32.6% vs 9.7%; P < .01). Conclusions: Our study characterizes the national incidence of preoperative placement of a colonic stent in the setting of malignant obstruction. Preoperative stent placement is associated with lower postoperative complications and a lower rate of colostomy formation. The results support the hypothesis that stenting as a bridge to surgery may benefit patients by converting an emergent surgery into an elective one.

Abstract
Objective: We assessed the optimal time interval between endoscopic stenting and subsequent surgery in patients with obstructive left-sided colon cancer. Methods: We reviewed the medical records of patients who underwent endoscopic colonic stenting for obstructive left-sided colon cancer between January 2009 and January 2012. Patients who had successful endoscopic intervention as a bridge to surgery were included in the study. Other variables studied were the duration between endoscopic stenting and surgery, the reobstruction rate, the stoma creation rate, the anastomotic leak rate, and the in-hospital mortality rate. Results: The medical records of 53 patients who underwent endoscopic stenting for obstructive left-sided colon cancer were reviewed, and 43 were included in the study. The median duration between endoscopic stenting and surgery was 7 days (range, 5–33). Conclusion: A median duration of 7 to 9 days after endoscopic stenting in patients with obstructive left-sided colon cancer is enough time to subsequently perform a safe surgical procedure. Extending this duration may expose the patient to the risk of reobstruction and emergency surgery.

Abstract
Introduction Colorectal cancer presents itself as acute bowel occlusion in 10–40% of patients. There are two main therapeutic approaches: urgent surgery and endoluminal placement self-expandable metallic stents (SEMS). Aims and Methods This study intended to better clarify the risk/benefit ratio of the above-mentioned approaches. We conducted a retrospective longitudinal multicenter study, including 189 patients with acute malignant colorectal occlusion, diagnosed between January 2005 and March 2013. Results Globally (85 patients – 35 bridge-to-surgery and 50 palliative), SEMS's technical success was of 94%. Palliative SEMS had limited clinical success (60%) and were associated with 40% of complications. SEMS occlusion (19%) was the most frequent complication, followed by migration (9%) and bowel perforation (7%). Elective surgery after stenting was associated with a higher frequency of primary anastomosis (94% vs. 76%; p = 0.038), and a lower rate of colostomy (26% vs. 55%; p = 0.004) and overall mortality (31% vs. 57%; p = 0.02). However, no significant differences were identified concerning postoperative complications. Regarding palliative treatment, no difference was found in the complications rate and overall mortality between SEMS and decompressive colostomy/ileostomy. In this SEMS subgroup, we found a higher rate of reinterventions (40% vs. 5%; p = 0.004) and a longer hospital stay (14, nine vs. seven, three days; p = 0.004). Conclusion SEMS placement as a bridge-to-surgery should be considered in the acute treatment of colorectal malignant occlusion, since it displays advantages regarding primary anastomosis, colostomy rate and overall mortality. In contrast, in this study, palliative SEMS did not appear to present significant advantages when compared to decompressive colostomy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Endoscopic stenting with a self-expandable metallic stent (SEMS) is a widely accepted procedure for malignant colonic obstruction. The Colonic Stent Safe Procedure Research Group conducted the present prospective feasibility study. METHODS Our objectives were to estimate the safety and feasibility of SEMS placement as a bridge to surgery (BTS) for malignant colorectal obstruction. We conducted a prospective, observational, single-arm, multicenter clinical trial from March 2012 to October 2013. Each patient was treated with an uncovered WallFlex enteral colonic stent. Patients were followed up until discharge after surgery. RESULTS A total of 518 consecutive patients were enrolled in this study. The cohort intended for BTS consisted of 312 patients (61 %), and the stent could be released in 305 patients. Technical and clinical success rates were 98 and 92 %, respectively. Elective surgery was performed in 297 patients, and emergency surgery was performed in eight patients for the treatment of complications. The overall preoperative complication rate was 7.2 %. Major complications, including perforation, occurred in 1.6 %, persistent colonic obstruction occurred in 1.0 %, and stent migration occurred in 1.3 % patients. The median time from SEMS to surgery was 16 days. Silent perforations were observed in 1.3 %. Open and laparoscopic surgery was performed in 121 and 184 patients, respectively. The tumor could be resected in 297 patients. The primary anastomosis rate was 92 %. The rate of anastomotic leakage was 4 %, and the overall stoma creation rate was 10 %. The median duration of hospitalization following surgery was 12 days. Overall postoperative morbidity and mortality rates were 16 and 0.7 %, respectively. CONCLUSIONS This largest, multicenter, prospective study demonstrates the feasibility of SEMS placement as a BTS for malignant colorectal obstruction. SEMS serves as a safe and effective BTS with acceptable stoma creation and complication rates in patients with acute malignant colonic obstruction.

Abstract
Purpose In some patients more than 70 years of age with obstructive colorectal cancer, their concerns about the postoperative complications lead them to refuse surgery after the insertion of a stent. This study aimed to compare the postoperative outcomes between obstructive colorectal cancer patients aged less than 70 years and those aged 70 years and more who underwent surgery after the insertion of a colonoscopic stent. Methods Patients with obstructive colorectal cancer who underwent surgery after the insertion of a colonoscopic stent between March 2004 and March 2014 were reviewed retrospectively by using medical records. The patients were divided into two groups: 22 patients were aged less than 70 years (group A) and 30 patients were aged more than 70 years (group B). Results Although no significant difference in comorbidity was noted between the two groups, the American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) score was higher in group B. There was no significant difference in cancer location, stage, or the time from the insertion of the stent to operation. The perioperative results including operation time, blood loss, and length of stay were not significantly different between the groups. The postoperative complications were also not significantly different. Conclusion The surgical outcomes of elderly patients were similar to those of younger patients, despite higher ASA scores. These results indicate that surgery can be performed safely in elderly patients with obstructive colorectal cancer after the insertion of a stent.

Abstract
AIM: To assess the clinical effect of surgical treatment of obstructing colon carcinoma.
METHODS: From August 2009 to August 2011, 117 patients with obstructing colon carcinoma received surgical treatment in Department of Gastrointestinal Oncology, Affiliated Hospital of Qinghai University. A retrospective analysis was performed of operative time, intraoperative bleeding, time to first anal exhaust and postoperative complications. The improvement in quality of life after surgery was assessed. All patients were followed for 3 years, and the survival rates were calculated.
RESULTS: Mean operative time was 174.61 min ± 41.29 min. The volume of intraoperative bleeding was 128.82 mL ± 20.25 mL. The time to first anal exhaust was 4.17 d ± 1.25 d. The rate of postoperative mortality was 1.71%, and the incidence rate of postoperative complications was 11.30%. The quality of life improved significantly after treatment (P < 0.01). The 1- and 3-year survival rates were 76.32% and 62.20%, respectively.
CONCLUSION: Operation is the most effective treatment for patients with obstructing colon carcinoma. The patient's condition, tumor characteristics and the location of occlusion should be carefully assessed before operation and the operation indication should be strictly controlled to improve the cure rate in patients with colon cancer.

Abstract
Colonic strictures, both benign and malignant, are commonly encountered in clinical practice. Benign strictures are most commonly treated by balloon dilation and less frequently with stents. Balloon dilation can help forestall or obviate surgery in some patients. Colonic strictures of malignant etiology generally need to be managed by stents and/or surgery. This article reviews endoscopic approaches to the management of colonic strictures.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Malignant bowel obstruction affects an estimated 3% to 15% of patients with cancer, with a mean survival of <4 weeks reported in patients with inoperable malignant bowel obstruction. In the current study, the authors assessed predictors of survival and the influence of treatment modality in US patients with cancer who were hospitalized for malignant bowel obstruction. METHODS All the US cancer patients hospitalized with malignant bowel obstruction in 2006 and 2010 were included. Data were obtained from the Nationwide Inpatient Sample provided by the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality. Malignant bowel obstruction diagnoses and treatment variables were identified using Clinical Classifications Software codes based on International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Revision and Current Procedural Terminology codes. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed with a logistic model, weighted chi-square test, and a generalized linear model. RESULTS The authors identified 942,014 and 1,103,528 hospitalizations for malignant bowel obstruction in 2006 and 2010, respectively. Medical management, upper gastrointestinal obstruction, health insurance coverage, and obesity were found to be significantly associated with better hospital survival. Multivariate analysis also demonstrated significantly increased odds of death with male sex, advanced age, AJCC stage IV disease, multiple comorbid conditions (except acquired immunodeficiency syndrome), and weight loss. There were no significant differences with stratification based on the location and etiology of the obstruction (primary tumor vs metastatic). CONCLUSIONS Malignant bowel obstruction is a common cause of death in hospitalized patients with advanced cancer in the United States. The odds of death are especially high in older patients and those with concurrent medical illnesses. Lack of insurance coverage, significant weight loss, and surgical management also appear to be associated with higher mortality in this population.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Endoscopic colorectal stenting may be performed as a bridge to surgery in patients with malignant colorectal obstruction, and has been reported to be associated with a high rate of successful primary anastomosis, low rate of stoma formation, and shorter hospital stay. However, the results of recent studies suggest that colorectal stenting could potentially worsen the prognosis. This study aimed to compare outcomes between patients who underwent colorectal stenting as a bridge to surgery and patients who underwent curative surgery only for malignant colorectal obstruction. METHODS This study included patients with malignant colorectal obstruction and symptomatic bowel dilatation who were treated by stenting as a bridge to surgery (stent group, n = 27) or surgical resection only (surgery-only group, n = 29) between May 2009 and May 2012. The short-term outcomes evaluated were the primary anastomosis rate, length of hospital stay, and rates of emergency and open surgery. The long-term outcomes evaluated were overall survival (OS) and recurrence-free survival (RFS). RESULTS The primary outcomes were similar in the two groups. There were no significant differences between the stent and surgery-only groups in 3-year OS (85.2 vs. 82.8%; p = 0.655) or 3-year RFS (80.7 vs. 78.6%; p = 0.916). The odds ratio for seeded metastasis after perforation either during or after stent placement was 46.0 (95% CI, 2.0-1,047.8; p = 0.016). CONCLUSIONS Colorectal stenting as a bridge to surgery showed no significant short- or long-term benefits compared with surgery only, and was associated with peritoneal seeding after perforation. Stenting before surgery should therefore only be considered in patients with a high risk of complications associated with emergency surgery.

Efficacy and complications in the use of self-expanding colonic stents: an analysis of 15 years' experience. RADIOLOGIA 2014; 57:402-11. [PMID: 25443436 DOI: 10.1016/j.rx.2014.07.004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/05/2014] [Revised: 06/18/2014] [Accepted: 07/02/2014] [Indexed: 12/11/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To analyze the efficacy and safety of the procedure for placing self-expanding stents in the colon. To evaluate the factors associated with complications. To analyze the dose of radiation delivered in the procedure. MATERIAL AND METHODS This was a retrospective descriptive study of 478 procedures done at a single center to place self-expanding metallic stents in the colon. A total of 423 nitinol stents and 79 stainless steel stents were placed. We included all colonic obstructions, of which 446 had malignant causes and 8 had benign causes. We excluded patients with intestinal perforation, severe colonic bleeding, short life expectancy, or lesions located less than 5 cm from the anus. We collected the dosimetric data and analyzed the technical success, clinical success, and complications during follow-up. RESULTS The procedure was a technical success in 92.26% of cases (n=441) and a clinical success in 78.45% (n=375); complications occurred during follow-up in 18.5% of cases. Complications occurred more frequently with the stainless steel stents than with the nitinol stents (OR: 3.2; 95% CI: 1.8-5.7). The mean value of the dose area product was 35 Gy*cm(2). When instead of being done by the interventional radiologist working together with an endoscopist the procedure was done exclusively by the interventional radiologist, the time under fluoroscopy (p=0.001), dose area product (p=0.029), and kinetic energy released per unit mass (p=0.001) were greater. CONCLUSION The procedure for placing self-expanding colonic stents is efficacious and safe with an acceptable rate of complications. The doses of radiation delivered were low, and the radiation doses and time under fluoroscopy were lower when the procedure was done together with an endoscopist.

Lim TZ, Chan D, Tan KK. Patients who failed endoscopic stenting for left-sided malignant colorectal obstruction suffered the worst outcomes. Int J Colorectal Dis 2014; 29:1267-73.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Reported outcomes of patients followed failed endoscopic stenting for acute left-sided malignant colonic obstruction remained lacking. OBJECTIVES This study aims to compare the outcomes between endoscopic stenting and emergency surgery in patients with acute left-sided malignant colonic obstruction and to identify factors that predict failed stenting. METHODS A retrospective review of all patients with acute left-sided malignant colonic obstruction in the National University Hospital, Singapore was performed. RESULTS From January 2007 to October 2013, 165 patients, with a median age of 68 years (range, 25-96), formed the study group. Sixty-nine (41.8 %) patients underwent immediate surgery. Endoscopic stenting was attempted in 96 (58.2 %) patients and was successful in 76 (79.2 %). The remaining 20 (20.8 %) failed the procedure and were operated immediately. Three of the patients who were successfully stented but did not improve clinically also required emergency surgery. Patients that failed stenting were 13.3 (95 % confidence interval (CI), 3.61-48.8; p < 0.001) times more likely to develop severe adverse events than those who were successfully stented. The group of patients who failed stenting was also 3.3 (95 % CI, 1.19-9.20; p = 0.026) times more likely to develop severe adverse events than those operated immediately. The only factor that predicted failure of stenting was a more acute angulation between the tumour and the distal lumen. CONCLUSIONS Patients who failed endoscopic stenting fared worse than those who were successfully stented and also those who underwent emergency surgery upfront. Identification of factors that predict failures may be vital to minimise morbidity in these high-risk patients.

Abstract
AIM: To identify risk factors for surgical failure after colonic stenting as a bridge to surgery in left-sided malignant colonic obstruction.
METHODS: The medical records of patients who underwent stent insertion for malignant colonic obstruction between February 2004 and August 2012 were retrospectively reviewed. Patients with malignant colonic obstruction had overt clinical symptoms and signs of obstruction. Malignant colonic obstruction was diagnosed by computed tomography and colonoscopy. A total of 181 patients underwent stent insertion during the study period; of these, 68 consecutive patients were included in our study when they had undergone stent placement as a bridge to surgery in acute left-sided malignant colonic obstruction due to primary colon cancer.
RESULTS: Out of 68 patients, forty-eight (70.6%) were male, and the mean age was 64.9 (range, 38-89) years. The technical and clinical success rates were 97.1% (66/68) and 88.2% (60/68), respectively. Overall, 85.3% (58/68) of patients underwent primary tumor resection and primary anastomosis. Surgically successful preoperative colonic stenting was achieved in 77.9% (53/68). The mean duration, defined as the time between the SEMS attempt and surgery, was 11.3 d (range, 0-26 d). The mean hospital stay after surgery was 12.5 d (range, 6-55 d). On multivariate analysis, the use of multiple self-expanding metal stents (OR = 28.872; 95%CI: 1.939-429.956, P = 0.015) was a significant independent risk factor for surgical failure of preoperative stenting as a bridge to surgery. Morbidity and mortality rates in surgery after stent insertion were 4.4% (3/68) and 1.5% (1/68), respectively.
CONCLUSION: The use of multiple self-expanding metal stents appears to be a risk factor for surgical failure.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Self-expandable metal stents (SEMSs) have been used as palliative treatment or bridge to surgery for obstructions caused by colorectal cancer (CRC). We assessed the long-term outcomes of palliative SEMSs and evaluated the risk factors influencing complications. MATERIALS AND METHODS One hundred and seventy-five patients underwent SEMS placement for acute malignant colorectal obstruction. Of the 72 patients who underwent palliative treatment for primary CRC, 30 patients received chemotherapy (CT) for primary cancer (CT group) and 42 underwent best supportive treatment (BST) without CT (BST group). RESULTS There was a significant difference in late migration between the CT group and the BST group (20.0% in CT group, 2.4% in BST group, p = 0.018). Response to CT influenced the rate of late obstruction (0% in disease control, 35.7% in disease progression, p = 0.014). However, late obstruction was not associated with stent properties, such as diameter or type (≤22 mm vs. >22 mm, 13.5% vs. 14.3%, p = 1.00; uncovered stent vs. covered stent, 15.5% vs. 7.1%, p = 0.675) and migration (≤22 mm vs. >22 mm, 16.2% vs. 2.9%, p = 0.108; uncovered stent vs. covered stent, 8.6% vs. 14.3%, p = 0.615) in palliative SEMS. CONCLUSION The administration of CT increases the rate of stent migration, and disease control by CT can reduce the risk of obstruction by maintaining the luminal patency of palliative SEMSs.

Perforation in colorectal stenting: a meta-analysis and a search for risk factors. Gastrointest Endosc 2014; 79:970-82.e7; quiz 983.e2, 983.e5.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Recent studies suggest that there is a substantial risk of perforation after colorectal stent placement. OBJECTIVE To identify risk factors for perforation from colonic stenting. DESIGN A meta-analysis of 86 studies published between 2005 and 2011. SETTING Multicenter review. PATIENTS All patients who underwent colorectal stent placement. INTERVENTION Colorectal stent placement. MAIN OUTCOME MEASUREMENTS The occurrence of perforation with subgroup analyses for stent design, stricture etiology, stricture dilation, and concomitant chemotherapy, including the use of bevacizumab. RESULTS A total of 4086 patients underwent colorectal stent placement; perforation occurred in 207. Meta-analysis revealed an overall perforation rate of 7.4%. Of the 9 most frequently used stent types, the WallFlex, the Comvi, and the Niti-S D-type had a higher perforation rate (>10%). A lower perforation rate (<5%) was found for the Hanarostent and the Niti-S covered stent. Stenting benign strictures was associated with a significantly increased perforation rate of 18.4% compared with 7.5% for malignant strictures. Dilation did not increase the risk of perforation: 8.5% versus 8.5% without dilation. The subgroup of post-stent placement dilation had a significantly increased perforation risk of 20.4%. With a perforation rate of 12.5%, bevacizumab-based therapy was identified as a risk factor for perforation, whereas the risk for chemotherapy without bevacizumab was 7.0% and not increased compared with the group without concomitant therapies during stent therapy (9.0%). LIMITATIONS Heterogeneity; a considerable proportion of data is unavailable for subgroup analysis. CONCLUSIONS The perforation rate of colonic stenting is 7.4%. Stent design, benign etiology, and bevacizumab were identified as risk factors for perforation. Intraprocedural stricture dilation and concomitant chemotherapy were not associated with an increased risk of perforation.
