Abstract
BACKGROUND Segmental colectomy in ulcerative colitis is performed in select patients who may be at increased risk for postoperative morbidity. OBJECTIVE To identify patients with ulcerative colitis who underwent segmental colectomy and assess their postoperative and long-term outcomes. DESIGN Retrospective case series. SETTING A tertiary care IBD center. PATIENTS Patients with ulcerative colitis who underwent surgery between 1995 and 2022. INTERVENTION Segmental colectomy. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Postoperative complications, early and late colitis, metachronous cancer development, completion proctocolectomy-free survival rates, and stoma at follow-up. RESULTS Fifty-five patients were included (20 [36.4%] women; age 67.8 (57.4-77.1) years at surgery; BMI 27.7 (24.2-31.1) kg/m 2 ; median follow-up 37.3 months). Thirty-two patients (58.2%) had ASA score of 3, 48 (87.3%) had at least 1 comorbidity, and 48 (87.3%) had Mayo endoscopic subscores of 0 to 1. Patients underwent right hemicolectomy (n = 28; 50.9%), sigmoidectomy (n = 17; 30.9%), left hemicolectomy (6; 10.9%), low anterior resection (n = 2; 3.6%), or a nonanatomic resection (n = 2; 3.6%) for endoscopically unresectable polyps (n = 21; 38.2%), colorectal cancer (n = 15; 27.3%), symptomatic diverticular disease (n = 13; 23.6%), and stricture (n = 6; 10.9%). Postoperative complications occurred in 16 patients (29.1%; n = 7 [12.7%] Clavien-Dindo class III-V). Early and late postoperative colitis rates were 9.1% and 14.5%, respectively. Metachronous cancer developed in 1 patient. Four patients (7.3%) underwent subsequent completion proctocolectomy with ileostomy. Six patients (10.9%) had a stoma at follow-up. Two- and 5-year completion proctocolectomy-free survival rates were 91% and 88%, respectively. LIMITATIONS Retrospective study and small sample size. CONCLUSIONS Segmental colectomy in ulcerative colitis is associated with low postoperative complication rates, symptomatic early colitis and late colitis rates, metachronous cancer development, and the need for subsequent completion proctocolectomy. Therefore, it can be safe to consider select patients, such as the elderly with quiescent colitis and other indications, for colectomy. See Video Abstract . COLECTOMA SEGMENTARIA EN LA COLITIS ULCEROSA ANTECEDENTES:La colectomía segmentaria en la colitis ulcerosa se realiza en pacientes seleccionados que pueden tener un mayor riesgo de morbilidad posoperatoria.OBJETIVO:Identificar pacientes con colitis ulcerosa sometidos a colectomía segmentaria y evaluar sus resultados postoperatorios y a largo plazo.DISEÑO:Serie de casos retrospectivos.AMBIENTE:Un centro de atención terciaria para enfermedades inflamatorias intestinales.PACIENTES:Pacientes con colitis ulcerosa intervenidos quirúrgicamente entre 1995 y 2022.INTERVENCIÓN(S):Colectomía segmentaria.PRINCIPALES MEDIDAS DE RESULTADO:Complicaciones postoperatorias, colitis temprana y tardía, desarrollo de cáncer metacrónico, tasas de supervivencia sin proctocolectomía completa y estoma en el seguimiento.RESULTADOS:Se incluyeron cincuenta y cinco pacientes [20 (36,4%) mujeres; 67,8 (57,4-77,1) años de edad al momento de la cirugía; índice de masa corporal 27,7 (24,2-31,1) kg/m2; mediana de seguimiento 37,3 meses]. La puntuación ASA fue III en 32 (58,2%) pacientes, 48 (87,3%) tenían al menos una comorbilidad y 48 (87,3%) tenían una subpuntuación endoscópica de Mayo de 0-1. Los pacientes fueron sometidos a hemicolectomía derecha (28, 50,9%), sigmoidectomía (17, 30,9%), hemicolectomía izquierda (6, 10,9%), resección anterior baja (2, 3,6%) o resección no anatómica (2, 3,6%) para; pólipos irresecables endoscópicamente (21, 38,2%), cáncer colorrectal (15, 27,3%), enfermedad diverticular sintomática (13, 23,6%) y estenosis (6, 10,9%). Se produjeron complicaciones postoperatorias en 16 (29,1%) pacientes [7 (12,7%) Clavien-Dindo Clase III-V]. Las tasas de colitis posoperatoria temprana y tardía fueron del 9,1% y el 14,5%, respectivamente. Un paciente desarrolló cáncer metacrónico. A 4 (7,3%) pacientes se les realizó posteriormente proctocolectomía completa con ileostomía. Seis (10,9%) pacientes tenían estoma en el seguimiento. Las tasas de supervivencia sin proctocolectomía completa a dos y cinco años fueron del 91% y 88%, respectivamente.LIMITACIONES:Estudio retrospectivo, tamaño de muestra pequeño.CONCLUSIONES:La colectomía segmentaria en la colitis ulcerosa se asocia con bajas tasas de complicaciones postoperatorias, tasas de colitis sintomática temprana y tasas de colitis tardía, desarrollo de cáncer metacrónico y la necesidad de una posterior proctocolectomía completa. Por lo tanto, puede ser seguro considerar pacientes seleccionados, como los ancianos con colitis inactiva y otras indicaciones de colectomía. (Traducción-Dr. Yolanda Colorado ).

Abstract
Treatment of ulcerative colitis (UC) has been revolutionized by the arrival of biotherapies and technical progress in interventional endoscopy and surgery. (Sub)total emergency colectomy is required in the event of complicated severe acute colitis: colectasis, perforation, hemorrhage, organ failure. Corticosteroid therapy is the reference treatment for uncomplicated severe acute colitis, while infliximab and ciclosporin are 2nd-line treatments. At each step, before and after each line of treatment failure, surgery should be considered as an option. In cases refractory to medical treatment, the choice between surgery and change in medication must weigh the chronic symptoms associated with the disease against the risks of postoperative complications and functional sequelae inherent to surgery. Detection of dysplastic lesions necessitates chromoendoscopic imaging with multiple biopsies and anatomopathological verification. Endoscopic treatment of these lesions remains reserved for selected patients. These different indications call for multidisciplinary medical-surgical discussion. Total coloproctectomy with ileo-anal anastomosis (TCP-IAA) is the standard surgery, and it holds out hope for healing. Modalities depend on patient characteristics, previous emergency colectomy, and presence of dysplasia. It may be carried out in one, in two modified, or in three phases. The main complications are anastomotic fistula, short-term pouch-related fistula, ileo-anal pouch syndrome, pouchitis and long-term digestive and sexual disorders. For selected cases, an alternative can consist in total colectomy with ileo-rectal anastomosis or permanent terminal ileostomy. The objective of this update is to clarify the indications, modalities, and results of surgical treatment of ulcerative colitis in accordance with the most recent data in the literature.

Abstract
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a known complication of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Widely accepted guidelines recommend that patients with ulcerative colitis diagnosed with CRC undergo total proctocolectomy with or without ileal pouch-anal anastomosis, and that patients with Crohn's disease and CRC undergo either total colectomy or proctocolectomy. These approaches are ideal for preventing synchronous and metachronous cancer, minimizing risk of refractory colitis requiring reoperation, and is the appropriate treatment for the vast majority of patients with IBD who are diagnosed with CRC and require surgical intervention. Segmental colectomy, however, may be considered in select patients with IBD and CRC, specifically in elderly patients with short disease duration, in patients with mild colitis identified preoperatively, in patients with high operative risk and prohibitive comorbidities, and in patients whose CRC appears to be sporadic as opposed to colitis-associated. Patients undergoing segmental resection must be closely surveilled postoperatively for dysplasia, recurrent cancer, and refractory colitis.

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.

Surgical management of colon cancer in ulcerative colitis patients with orthotopic liver transplant for primary sclerosing cholangitis. A systematic review.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Colon cancer in ulcerative colitis patients with liver transplant (UCCOLT) due to primary sclerosing cholangitis carries significant treatment challenges. Aim of this literature search is to review management strategies and provide a framework to facilitate the decisional process in this clinical setting. METHODS PRISMA-compliant systematic search was followed by critical expert commentary of the results and development of a surgical management algorithm. Endpoints included surgical management, operative strategies, functional and survival outcomes. Technical and strategics aspects with particular regard to the choice of reconstruction were evaluated to tentatively develop an integrated algorithm. RESULTS Ten studies reporting treatment of 20 UCCOLT patients were identified after screening. Nine patients underwent proctocolectomy and end-ileostomy (PC) and eleven had restorative ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (IPAA). Reported results for perioperative outcomes, oncological outcomes, and graft loss were comparable for both procedures. There were no reports of subtotal colectomies and ileo-rectal anastomosis (IRA). CONCLUSIONS Literature in the field is scarce and decision-making is particularly complex. PC and IPAA have been reported with good results. Nevertheless, IRA may also be considered in UCCOLT patients in selected cases, reducing the risks of sepsis, OLT and pouch failure; furthermore, in young patients, it has the advantage of preserving fertility or sexual function. The proposed treatment algorithm may represent a valuable support in guiding surgical strategy.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Total abdominal colectomy (TAC) with ileostomy is the standard treatment for severe ulcerative colitis (UC). Partial colectomy (PC) with colostomy may present a less morbid treatment option. METHODS The 2012-19 ACS-NSQIP database was queried to assess 30-day outcomes among patients undergoing TAC versus PC for UC, utilizing propensity score matching (PSM) techniques to account for differences in disease severity, patient selection, and presentation acuity. RESULTS Before matching (n = 9888), patients undergoing PC were older, had more comorbidities, and experienced higher complication and 30-day mortality rates (P < 0.001). After matching (n = 1846), patients undergoing TAC experienced higher 30-day overall complications (41.9% versus 36.5%, P = 0.017) and serious complications (37.2% versus 31.5%, P = 0.011). Sensitivity analyses of older patients and those undergoing nonemergency surgery demonstrated higher overall rates of complications for patients receiving TAC. However, among patients undergoing emergency surgery only, no differences in complications were seen between the two surgical approaches. CONCLUSIONS PC with colostomy in the setting of ulcerative colitis has similar 30-day outcomes to TAC with ileostomy. PC may be an acceptable surgical alternative to TAC in select patients. Studies investigating longer-term outcomes are necessary to further investigate this option.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), which includes Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC), is a complex, immune-mediated, disorder which leads to several gastrointestinal and systemic manifestations determining a poor quality of life, disability, and other negative health outcomes. Our knowledge of this condition has greatly improved over the last few decades, and a comprehensive management should take into account both biological (i.e., disease-related, patient-related) and non-biological (i.e., socioeconomic, cultural, environmental, behavioral) factors which contribute to the disease phenotype. From this point of view, the so called 4P medicine framework, including personalization, prediction, prevention, and participation could be useful for tailoring ad hoc interventions in IBD patients. In this review, we discuss the cutting-edge issues regarding personalization in special settings (i.e., pregnancy, oncology, infectious diseases), patient participation (i.e., how to communicate, disability, tackling stigma and resilience, quality of care), disease prediction (i.e., faecal markers, response to treatments), and prevention (i.e., dysplasia through endoscopy, infections through vaccinations, and post-surgical recurrence). Finally, we provide an outlook discussing the unmet needs for implementing this conceptual framework in clinical practice.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Increasing evidence is suggesting appendectomy as an alternative treatment for ulcerative colitis (UC), especially in case of histological appendiceal inflammation. Therefore, preoperative identification of appendiceal inflammation could be beneficial. This study aimed to assess the prevalence of peri-appendiceal red patch (PARP) on colonoscopy. In addition, prognostic relevance of PARP for disease course and its predictive value for histological appendiceal inflammation in patients undergoing appendectomy was assessed. METHODS UC patients undergoing colonoscopy in 2014/2015 were included to determine PARP-prevalence in a cross-sectional study. Findings were correlated to patient and disease characteristics, upscaling of treatment and colectomy rates after cross-sectional colonoscopy. In patients undergoing appendiceal resection, histopathological inflammation was assessed using the Robarts Histopathology Index (RHI). RESULTS In total, 249 patients were included of which 17.7% (44/249) had a PARP. Patients with PARP were significantly younger with a shorter disease course. The majority of patients with PARP (61.4%) was in endoscopic remission. Patients with PARP required more upscaling of medical therapy (81.8% vs. 58.0%, p < 0.01), and more PARP patients underwent colectomy (13.6% vs. 4.9%, p = 0.04). Patients with PARP had a higher median RHI in resection specimens (14 vs. 7, p < 0.01). CONCLUSION PARP was present during colonoscopy regardless disease activity and was predominantly found in UC patients with younger age and shorter disease duration. PARP patients had a more severe course of UC, and in case of appendectomy, more severe histopathological appendiceal inflammation. Appendectomy as an experimental therapy for UC has been suggested to be predominantly effective in UC patients with appendiceal inflammation. This study demonstrates that presence of a PARP on colonoscopy predicts appendiceal inflammation. After consensus has been reached on the therapeutic effect of appendectomy, assessing PARP presence during colonoscopy could therefore contribute to identifying patients most likely to respond.

Colitis-Associated Colorectal Cancer in Patients with Inflammatory Bowel Diseases in a Tertiary Referral Center: A Propensity Score Matching Analysis. J Clin Med 2022; 11:jcm11030866. [PMID: 35160321 PMCID: PMC8836563 DOI: 10.3390/jcm11030866] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/01/2021] [Revised: 02/02/2022] [Accepted: 02/03/2022] [Indexed: 01/03/2023] Open
Abstract
Background: Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a risk factor in developing colitis-associated colorectal cancer (CA-CRC). CA-CRC causes the death of about 15% IBD patients and the risk is 1.5–2.4 fold higher among IBD sufferers than in the general population. The dysplasia CA-CRC develops in a different mechanism in comparison to sporadic colorectal cancer (CRC). This study aimed at evaluating the surgical treatment and its outcomes as well as 5-year survival rates in the CA-CRC and sporadic CRC patients. Materials and methods: This single-center, retrospective, propensity score-matched case-control study was conducted with 2204 patients operated on due to primary CRC, who were hospitalized from 2003 to 2019. The CA-CRC group consisted of 49 patients with CRC in the course of IBD. The sporadic CRC group was selected with the propensity score matching technique and comprised 98 patients with sporadic CRC who did not have clinical or histopathological features characteristic for IBD. Results: CA-CRC is characterized by a more aggressive clinical course. Surgical treatment of CA-CRC involves more palliative operations and is related with a higher risk of perioperative and postoperative complications. Further studies of CA-CRC risk factor stratification and the development of molecular markers hold promise in reducing CRC in IBD patients in the future were warranted.

Abstract
Simple Summary This article expresses the viewpoint of the authors’ management of low rectal cancer in ulcerative colitis (UC). This subject suffers from a paucity of literature and therefore management decision is very difficult to take. The aim of this paper is to provide a structured approach to a challenging situation. It is subdivided into two parts: a first part where the existing literature is reviewed critically, and a second part in which, on the basis of the literature review and their extensive clinical experience, a management algorithm is proposed by the authors to offer guidance to surgical and oncological practices. This text adds to the literature a useful guide for the treatment of these complex clinical scenarios. Abstract Low rectal Carcinoma arising at the background of Ulcerative Colitis poses significant management challenges to the clinicians. The complex decision-making requires discussion at the multidisciplinary team meeting. The published literature is scarce, and there are significant variations in the management of such patients. We reviewed treatment protocols and operative strategies; with the aim of providing a practical framework for the management of low rectal cancer complicating UC. A practical treatment algorithm is proposed.

Abstract
Total proctocolectomy and an ileal pouch-anal anastomosis are recommended as the standard procedure for ulcerative colitis (UC)-colitis-associated cancer (CAC). However, several studies have reported the partial colectomy and endoscopic resection of UC-CAC in recent years. We present a surgical case of UC-CAC that was detected at a site that had not been diagnosed preoperatively, and we report potential problems of partial colectomy and endoscopic resection through this case. Considerations of synchronous and metachronous cancer/dysplasia are important before partial resection is planned for CAC in UC. Moreover, it should be noted that endoscopic resection at the anal site can be a risk factor for pouch surgery failure due to fibrosis after resection.
