A retrospective observational study. Langenbecks Arch Surg 2023; 408:394. [PMID: 37816844 DOI: 10.1007/s00423-023-03131-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/18/2023] [Accepted: 10/02/2023] [Indexed: 10/12/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE To determine whether anastomotic leakage (AL) following intersphincteric resection (ISR) for ultralow rectal cancer (uLRC) is associated with long-term negative outcomes. METHODS Between June 2011 and January 2022, 236 consecutive patients who underwent ISR with diverting ileostomy for uLRC were included. The primary outcome was long-term clinical consequences of AL, including chronic stricture, stoma reversal, and oncological and functional results. RESULTS Forty-one (17.4%) patients developed symptomatic AL, whereas only two (0.8%) required re-laparotomy due to severe leakage. Patients with leaks had a significantly increased incidence of chronic stricture (29.3% vs. 8.7%, P = 0.001) and stoma non-reversal (34.1% vs. 4.6%, P < 0.0001) than controls. The severe consequences were particularly common in patients with anastomotic separation, resulting in 60% of those presenting with chronic stricture and 50% ending up with stoma non-reversal. After a median follow-up of 59 (range, 7-139) months, AL did not compromise long-term oncological outcomes, including tumor recurrence (9.8% vs. 5.6%, P = 0.3), 5-year disease-free, and overall survival (73.4% vs. 74.8% and 85.1% vs. 85.4%, P = 0.56 and P = 0.55). A total of 149 patients with bowel continuity who completed self-assessment questionnaires were enrolled for functional evaluation. The median follow-up was 24 (range, 12-94) months after ileostomy reversal, and functional results were comparable between patients with and without leaks. CONCLUSION AL is an unfortunate reality for patients who underwent ISR for uLRC, but the rate of severe leakage is limited. Leaks contribute to possible adverse impacts on chronic stricture and stoma non-reversal, especially for patients with anastomotic separation. However, long-term oncological and functional results may not be compromised. TRIAL REGISTRATION Chictr.org.cn identifier: ChiCTR-ONC-15007506 and ChiCTR2100051614.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Anastomotic stricture/stenosis (AS) is an alarming complication after colorectal surgery, and there is still no recognized definition for AS. This study aimed to determine the status and change of AS after rectal surgery using a special AS definition and grading system, discuss various risk factors for AS. METHODS This study included patients with rectal cancer who underwent total mesorectal excision between May 2014 and May 2021. A five-degree special AS definition and grading system was used to determine AS status, and clinical outcomes and risk factors for AS were investigated. RESULTS A total of 473 patients were enrolled in this study. Univariate and multivariate analyses of patient-related and technical risk factors for AS were performed 3 months postoperatively. For univariate analysis, female sex was a lower risk factor for AS. Defunctioning stoma, neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy, chemotherapy, and anastomotic leakage were higher risk factors for AS (all p < 0.05). For multivariate analysis, only neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy, chemotherapy, and anastomotic leakage were still higher risk factors for AS (all p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Through a special AS definition and grading system's evaluation, we noted that neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy, chemotherapy, and anastomotic leakage were the higher risk factors for AS.

The effect of reinforcing sutures and trans-anal drainage tube on the outcome of laparoscopic resection for rectal cancer: propensity score‑matched analysis. Langenbecks Arch Surg 2023; 408:289. [PMID: 37515648 DOI: 10.1007/s00423-023-03027-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/26/2023] [Accepted: 07/23/2023] [Indexed: 07/31/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Laparoscopic resection for rectal cancer is currently the predominant treatment modality for rectal tumors, with an ongoing focus on reducing the incidence of postoperative complications. In an effort to decrease the occurrence of anastomotic leakage, two additional steps worth considering are reinforcing the anastomosis with a barbed suture and retaining an anal drain as part of the procedure. The results of the operation were analyzed by comparing them to cases where the anastomosis was performed with a stapler alone. METHODS This study retrospectively analyzed patients who underwent laparoscopic radical rectal cancer surgery between July 2020 and March 2023. The patients were categorized into three cohorts based on the postoperative management following instrumented anastomosis: cohort A, the instrumented anastomosis alone group; cohort B, the reinforced suture group; and cohort C, the reinforced suture and indwelling transanal drainage tube group. Propensity score matching was performed twice in a 1:1 ratio, comparing cohort B to cohort A and cohort C to cohort B. The objective was to compare the benefits and drawbacks among the different groups in terms of operative time, postoperative outcomes and operative costs. RESULTS 529 patients with laparoscopic resection for rectal cancer were eligible for inclusion. the instrumented anastomosis alone group, reinforced suture group and the reinforced suture and indwelling transanal drainage tube group were performed in 205 patients, 198 patients and 126 patients, respectively. Cohort A and Cohort B differed in three variables after PSM: total operative time (p = 0.018), postoperative hospital stay (p < 0.001) and incidence of anastomotic leakage (p = 0.038). Cohort B had a longer total operative time, shorter postoperative hospital stay and a lower incidence of anastomotic leakage. Similarly, cohort C had less postoperative drainage (P = 0.01) and a longer postoperative hospital stay (P = 0.003) when cohort B and cohort C were matched for propensity scores. There was no significant difference in the cost of surgery between the three cohorts. CONCLUSIONS The incorporation of barbed suture reinforcement significantly reduces the occurrence of postoperative anastomotic leakage in rectal cancer surgeries. On the other hand, although trans-anal drainage was used as an additional measure to the reinforcement suture of the anastomosis, the utilization of trans-anal drainage tubes does not demonstrate a significant improvement in surgical outcomes.

Abstract
PURPOSE We have performed a single stapled anastomosis with double purse-string sutures as a Trans anal Total Mesorectal Excision (TaTME) reconstruction for low rectal cancer. We report an attempt to control local infection and reduce anastomotic leakage (AL) at this anastomotic site. PATIENTS AND METHODS Fifty-one patients who underwent TaTME for low rectal cancer from April 2021 to October 2022 were included. TaTME was performed by two teams, and reconstruction was performed by anastomosis with a single stapling technique (SST). After the anastomosis was thoroughly cleaned, Z sutures were placed parallel to the staple line to suture the mucosa on the oral and anal side of the staple line and to cover the staple line circumferentially. Data on operative time, Distal Margin (DM), recurrence and postoperative complications including AL were prospectively collected. RESULTS The mean age of patients was 67 years. There were 36 males and 15 females. The overall mean operative time was 283.1 min, and the mean Distal Margin was 2.2 cm. Postoperative complications were observed in 5.9% of the patients, but no AL was observed, nor any serious complications with Clavien-Dindo ≥ 3 grade. Of the 49 cases excluding Stage 4, postoperative recurrence was observed in 2 cases (4.9%). CONCLUSION In patients with lower rectal cancer who underwent TaTME, additional mucosal coverage of the anastomotic staple line by transanal manipulation after reconstruction may be associated with a reduction in the incidence of postoperative AL. Further studies including late anastomotic complications are needed.

Incidence and Risk Factors of Surgical Complications and Anastomotic Leakage After Transanal Total Mesorectal Excision for Middle and Low Rectal Cancer. J Gastrointest Surg 2023; 27:373-381. [PMID: 36538254 DOI: 10.1007/s11605-022-05546-z] [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: 09/01/2022] [Accepted: 11/19/2022] [Indexed: 01/20/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE Transanal total mesorectal excision (taTME) is a promising surgical procedure for middle and low rectal cancer; however, it is linked to significant morbidity. This study aimed to determine the incidence of postoperative surgical complications and anastomotic leakage following taTME and to identify their associated risk factors. METHODS The prospective clinical data of 114 patients, who underwent taTME and primary anastomosis for mid-low rectal cancer between November 2016 and June 2022, were retrospectively analyzed. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to identify clinical characteristics and risk factors for predicting surgical complications and anastomotic leakage. RESULTS Surgical complications occurred in 40 (35.1%) patients within the first 30 days following surgery. Based on the Clavien-Dindo classification, minor complications (Clavien-Dindo grades I + II) accounted for 30.7%, while major complications (Clavien-Dindo grades III + IV) accounted for only 4.4%. None of the patients died within 30 days. The incidence of anastomotic leakage was 15.8%: 4.4% as grade A (5 cases), 9.6% as grade B (11 cases), and 1.8% as grade C (2 cases). Preoperative T3-4 was identified as an independent risk factor for surgical complications (p = 0.031) by multivariate analysis. American Society of Anesthesiology score ≥ 3 (P = 0.021) and incomplete total mesorectal excision specimens (P = 0.030) were significantly associated with the risk of anastomotic leakage. CONCLUSIONS In this study, the incidence of surgical complications and anastomotic leakage in taTME aligned with previously reported rates. Preoperative T3-4 was significantly associated with surgical complications. American Society of Anesthesiology score ≥ 3 and incomplete TME specimens independently increased the risk of anastomotic leakage.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Currently, hand-sewn anastomosis is the standard procedure for inter-sphincteric resection (ISR); however, distal purse-string suturing during transanal total mesorectal excision (TaTME) has allowed a single-stapling technique (SST). Although it was originally intended for cases requiring anastomosis of 2 cm or more above the anorectal junction (ARJ), SST could be safely performed in ISR. The aim of this trial is to determine the superiority of SST over hand-sewn anastomosis in ISR with TaTME. METHODS The Super SST trial is a multicentre randomized clinical trial comparing stapled and hand-sewn anastomoses in ISR with TaTME. The trial will recruit patients scheduled for TaTME with anastomosis below the ARJ, who will be allocated 1:1 to receive either hand-sewn or stapled anastomosis. The primary endpoint is anastomosis-related complications within 30 postoperative days. Secondary endpoints include all early and late complications, operating time, reoperation, mortality rate, length of postoperative hospital stay, readmission, incidence of anal pain and rectal mucosal prolapse, length of temporary stoma retention, the proportion of patients with a temporary stoma at 1 year after surgery, and anorectal function at 1 year after surgery. CONCLUSION This trial will provide important clinical insights for new and promising anastomotic options for patients with very low rectal cancer.

Abstract
Ovarian cancer is the most fatal of all female reproductive cancers. The fatality rate of OC is the highest among gynecological malignant tumors, and cytoreductive surgery is a common surgical procedure for patients with advanced ovarian cancer. To achieve satisfactory tumor reduction, intraoperative bowel surgery is often involved. Intestinal anastomosis is the traditional way to restore intestinal continuity, but the higher rate of postoperative complications still cannot be ignored. Transitory protective stoma can reduce the severity of postoperative complications and traumatic stress reaction and provide the opportunity for conservative treatment. But there are also many problems, such as stoma-related complications and the impact on social psychology. Therefore, it is essential to select appropriate patients according to the indications for the transitory protective stoma, and a customized postoperative care plan is needed specifically for the stoma population.

Abstract
PURPOSE Rectal gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) surgery is often challenging owing to the anatomical constraints of the narrow pelvis and tumor hugeness. Despite the increasing number of patients undergoing trans-anal total mesorectal excision (taTME) globally, the feasibility of trans-anal surgery with the taTME technique for rectal GISTs remains unclear. We aimed to evaluate the feasibility of trans-anal surgery with the taTME technique for rectal GISTs. METHODS Using a prospectively collected database, we retrospectively analyzed the clinical findings, surgical outcomes, pathological outcomes, urinary and anal functions, and prognoses of patients who underwent trans-anal surgery with the taTME technique for primary rectal GISTs at the National Cancer Center Hospital East from September 2014 to March 2020. RESULTS Twenty-one patients with primary rectal GISTs were included in this study. The median distance from the anal verge to the lower edge of the tumor was 40 mm (range, 15-60 mm), and the median tumor size was 59 mm (range, 11-175 mm). Moreover, seven and 14 patients underwent one-team and two-team surgeries, respectively, with curative intent. Nineteen patients (90.5%) underwent anus-preserving surgery, and the urinary tracts were preserved in all cases. Two-team surgery showed a significantly lower blood loss volume and shorter operation time than one-team surgery (58 vs. 222 mL, P = 0.017; 184 vs 356 min, P = 0.041, respectively). The pathological negative-margin resection rate was 100%. During the follow-up period, no patient developed local GIST recurrence and one (4.8%) developed distant metastasis. CONCLUSION Trans-anal surgery with the taTME technique is feasible for rectal GISTs, and two-team surgery may be more advantageous than one-team surgery in terms of operation time and blood loss.

Does temporary ileostomy via specimen extraction site affect the short outcomes and complications after laparoscopic low anterior resection in rectal cancer patients? A propensity score matching analysis. BMC Surg 2022; 22:263. [PMID: 35799152 PMCID: PMC9264509 DOI: 10.1186/s12893-022-01715-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/01/2022] [Accepted: 07/04/2022] [Indexed: 11/10/2022] Open
Abstract
Purpose The purpose of the current study was to compare the outcomes of temporary stoma through the specimen extraction site (SSES) and stoma through a new site (SNS) after laparoscopic low anterior resection. Methods The rectal cancer patients who underwent laparoscopic low anterior resection plus temporary ileostomy were recruited in a single clinical database from Jun 2013 to Jun 2020. The SSES group and the SNS group were compared using propensity score matching (PSM) analysis. Results A total of 257 rectal cancer patients were included in this study, there were 162 patients in the SSES group and 95 patients in the SNS group. After 1:1 ratio PSM, there was no difference in baseline information (p > 0.05). The SSES group had smaller intraoperative blood loss (p = 0.016 < 0.05), shorter operation time (p < 0.01) and shorter post-operative hospital stay (p = 0.021 < 0.05) than the SNS group before PSM. However, the SSES group shorter operation time (p = 0.006 < 0.05) than the SNS group after PSM, moreover, there was no significant difference in stoma-related complications (p > 0.05). In the multivariate analysis, longer operation time was an independent factor (p = 0.019 < 0.05, OR = 1.006, 95% CI = 1.001–1.011) for the stoma-related complications. Conclusion Based on the current evidence, the SSES group had smaller intraoperative blood loss, shorter operation time and shorter post-operative hospital stay before PSM, and shorter operation time after PSM. Therefore, SSES might be superior than SNS after laparoscopic low anterior resection for rectal cancer patients.
