Abstract
BACKGROUND The routine establishment of a diverting stoma (DS) remains controversial in every patient undergoing Dixon operation. We aimed to establish a model for the risk assessment of rectal anastomotic leak (RAREAL) after Dixon in non-emergency patients with rectal cancer, using routinely available variables, by which surgeons could individualize their approach to DS. METHODS 323 patients who underwent Dixon operation for rectal cancer from January 2015 to December 2018 were taken as the model group for retrospective study. Univariable and multivariable logistic regression analysis was used to determine the independent risk factors associated with anastomotic leakage. We constructed the RAREAL model. 150 patients who underwent Dixon operation due to rectal cancer from January 2019 to December 2020 were collected according to the uniform criteria as a validation group to validate the RAREAL model. RESULTS In the model group, multivariable analysis identified the following variables as independent risk factors for AL: HbA1c (odds ratio (OR) = 4.107; P = 0.044), Left colic artery (LCA) non preservation (OR = 4.360; P = 0.026), Tumor distance from the anal margin (TD) (OR = 6.373; P = 0.002). In the model group, the area under the curve (AUC) of the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) for evaluating AL with RAREAL was 0.733, and when RAREAL score = 2.5, its sensitivity, specificity and Youden index were 0.385, 0.973, 0.358, respectively. The AUC was 0.722 in the validation group and its sensitivity and specificity were 0.333 and 0.985, respectively, when RAREAL score = 2.5. CONCLUSION The RAREAL score can be used to assess the risk of AL after Dixon operation for rectal cancer, and prophylactic DS should be proactively done when the score is greater than 2.5.

Abstract
Objective To explore the risk factors of anastomotic leakage (AL) after laparoscopic anterior resection (AR) of rectal cancer and establish a nomogram prediction model. Methods Clinical and surgical data of patients who underwent AR of rectal cancer at Sichuan Cancer Hospital from January 2017 to December 2020 were retrospectively collected. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to screen the independent risk factors of AL after AR. A nomogram risk prediction model was established based on the selected independent risk factors and the predictive performance of nomogram was evaluated. Results A 1013 patients undergoing laparoscopic AR were included, of which 67 had AL, with an incidence of 6.6%. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses showed that male gender, tumors distance from the anus verge of ≤ 5cm, tumors distance from the anus verge of 5–10cm, circumferential tumor growth, operation time ≥ 240min, and no diverting stoma were independent risk factors for AL after AR. A nomogram prediction model was established based on these results. The calibration curve showed that the predicted occurrence probability of the nomogram model was in good agreement with the actual occurrence probability. The area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was 0.749. Conclusion The nomogram prediction model based on the independent risk factors of patients undergoing AL after AR can effectively predict the probability of AL.

Risk factors of symptomatic anastomotic leakage and its impacts on a long-term survival after laparoscopic low anterior resection for rectal cancer: a retrospective single-center study. World J Surg Oncol 2021; 19:187. [PMID: 34172053 PMCID: PMC8235623 DOI: 10.1186/s12957-021-02303-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/27/2021] [Accepted: 06/17/2021] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Postoperative symptomatic anastomotic leakage (AL) is a serious complication after low anterior resection (LAR) for rectal cancer. AL can potentially affect short-term patient outcomes and long-term prognosis. This study aimed to explore the risk factors and long-term survival of symptomatic AL after laparoscopic LAR for rectal cancer. Methods From May 2009 to May 2015, 298 consecutive patients who underwent laparoscopic LAR for rectal cancer with or without a defunctioning stoma were included in this study. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to explore independent risk factors for symptomatic AL. Survival analysis was performed using Kaplan–Meier curves, and log-rank tests were used for group comparisons. Results Among the 298 patients enrolled in this study, symptomatic AL occurred in eight (2.7%) patients. The univariate analysis showed that age of ≤65 years (P = 0.048), neoadjuvant therapy (P = 0.095), distance from the anal verge (P = 0.078), duration of operation (P = 0.001), and pathological tumor (T) category (P = 0.004) were associated with symptomatic AL. The multivariate analysis demonstrated that prolonged duration of operation (P = 0.010) was an independent risk factor for symptomatic AL after laparoscopic LAR for rectal cancer. No statistically significant differences were observed in the 3-year (P = 0.785) and 5-year (P = 0.979) overall survival rates. Conclusions A prolonged duration of operation increased the risk of symptomatic AL after laparoscopic LAR for rectal cancer. An impact of symptomatic AL on a long-term survival was not observed in this study; however, further studies are required. Trial registration This study was registered in the Chinese Clinical Trial Registry (ChiCTR2000033413) on May 31, 2020.
