Survival and chance of reversal after intestinal stoma formation during cytoreductive surgery for advanced ovarian cancer; a population-based cohort study. Gynecol Oncol 2023; 170:259-265.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Our objective was to examine oncologic outcome in women with advanced epithelial ovarian cancer (aEOC) receiving an intestinal stoma (IS) at the time of cytoreductive surgery (CRS), probability of stoma reversal (SR) and variables affecting odds of SR. METHODS This population-based cohort study included all women diagnosed with aEOC between 2009 and 2018 in the Stockholm/Gotland Region of Sweden. The association between IS formation at CRS and survival was analyzed with proportional hazards regression yielding hazard ratios (HR) with 95% confidence intervals (CI), adjusted for predefined confounders. Cumulative incidence functions, with death or recurrence as competing risk, were used to estimate chance of SR. The association between clinical factors and SR was analyzed with logistic regression yielding odds ratios (OR) with 95% CI. RESULTS The final analysis included 888 women undergoing CRS for aEOC. Of these, 129 (14,5%) received an IS of which 74% (n = 95) were defunctioning and 26% (n = 34) permanent. IS was associated with an increased hazard of death (HR 1.30, CI 95%, 1.05-1.61; p = 0.02) in the univariate analysis, however not in the adjusted analysis. The probability of SR of defunctioning IS within 2 years was 48% (95% CI, 38-58). Median time to SR was 10 months. High surgical complexity score (SCS) was associated with increased odds of reversal (OR 3.43, 95% CI, 1.06-11.05; p = 0.04). CONCLUSIONS IS formation does not seem to affect prognosis in women with aEOC. We could not identify any factor, known at time of CRS, that may predict the odds of SR except a high SCS.

He X, Li Z. Ostomy Does Not Lead to Worse Outcomes After Bowel Resection With Ovarian Cancer: A Systematic Review. Front Oncol 2022; 12:892376. [PMID: 35677154 PMCID: PMC9169036 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2022.892376] [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: 03/09/2022] [Accepted: 04/19/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Debulking cytoreduction surgery with bowel resection is a common intervention for ovarian cancer. It is controversial whether ostomy causes worse survival outcomes and how clinical physicians should choose which patients to undergo ostomy. During this study, we performed a systematic review to determine whether ostomy leads to worse outcomes after bowel resection compared to anastomosis. We also summarized the possible indications for ostomy. Methods We searched PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane for articles containing the phrase "ovarian cancer with bowel resection" that were published between 2016 and 2021. We included studies that compared primary anastomosis with ostomy. We mainly focused on differences in the anastomotic leakage rate, length of hospital stay, overall survival, and other survival outcomes associated with the two procedures. Results and Conclusion Of the 763 studies, three were ultimately included in the systematic review (N=1411). We found that ostomy did not contribute to worse survival outcomes, and that the stoma-related complications were acceptable. Indications for ostomy require further study. Bowel resection segment margins and the distance from the anastomosis to the anal verge require consideration.

Bernard L, Boucher J, Helpman L. Bowel resection or repair at the time of cytoreductive surgery for ovarian malignancy is associated with increased complication rate: An ACS-NSQIP study. Gynecol Oncol 2020; 158:597-602. [PMID: 32641239 DOI: 10.1016/j.ygyno.2020.06.504] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/28/2020] [Accepted: 06/22/2020] [Indexed: 01/22/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Bowel procedures are commonly performed as part of ovarian cancer cytoreduction. The aim of this study was to assess the postoperative complication rates among women with an ovarian malignancy undergoing bowel resection/repair at the time of cytoreductive surgery compared with a control group (cytoreductive surgery without bowel resection or repair). METHODS Analysis of 4965 cytoreductive surgeries for suspected ovarian malignancies recorded in the American College of Surgeons' National Surgical Quality Improvement Program (NSQIP) datasets (2006-2017) was performed. One-way ANOVA, Kruskal-Wallis H and Chi-squared tests were used to evaluate and compare baseline characteristics between the groups and controls. Postoperative surgical site infection rates and other 30-day post-operative outcomes were assessed with multivariable logistic and linear regressions. RESULTS 8.3% (413/4965) of cytoreductive procedures had an associated repair of enterotomy (small or large bowel), 10.9% (541/4947) had an associated colectomy with primary anastomosis, and 2.1% (104/4965) had an associated colectomy with colostomy. Surgical site infections (SSI, either superficial incisional, deep incisional, organ space or wound dehiscence) were significantly more prevalent in the bowel resection/repair group (16.9% vs 5.7%, p < 0.0001). The odds of surgical infections were 2.67 times higher in patients who underwent a bowel resection or repair after controlling for age, BMI, ASA status, pre-operative weight loss, hypoalbuminemia, NSQIP morbidity score, length and complexity of surgical procedure. CONCLUSION Patients undergoing bowel resection/repair at the time of cytoreductive surgery are at increased risk of surgical site infections, without increased risk of 30-day mortality. Interventions to mitigate the risk of infectious complications in these patients should be evaluated in a prospective fashion.

Clinical characteristics and outcomes after bowel surgery and ostomy formation at the time of debulking surgery for advanced-stage epithelial ovarian carcinoma. Int J Gynecol Cancer 2020; 29:585-592. [PMID: 30833444 DOI: 10.1136/ijgc-2018-000154] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/04/2019] [Accepted: 01/14/2019] [Indexed: 11/04/2022] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE There are limited data on clinical outcomes of patients with advanced-stage epithelial ovarian cancer who require ostomy formation at the time of either primary cytoreductive surgery or interval cytoreductive surgery. The objective of this study was to evaluate patients undergoing bowel surgery and ostomy formation after primary or interval surgery. METHODS Patients with International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) stage IIIC-IV epithelial ovarian cancer who underwent cytoreductive surgery between January 2010 and December 2014 were identified retrospectively. Patients with non-epithelial histology, low-grade serous histology or incomplete medical records were excluded. Demographic and clinical data were collected and analyzed. Age, stage, co-morbidity index, pre-operative CA125, pre-operative albumin, and Aletti surgical complexity score were included in a multivariable logistic regression model to assess independent associations with ostomy formation. RESULTS A total of 554 patients were included in the study. Of these, 261 (47%) underwent primary cytoreduction and 293 (53%) underwent interval cytoreduction. Patients undergoing primary surgery were more likely to undergo bowel resection, compared with interval surgery patients (37.2% vs 14%, p<0.001). Of the 139 (25.1%) patients who underwent bowel surgery, 25 (18%) underwent ostomy formation (11 ileostomies and 14 colostomies). Rates of ostomy formation were similar between the groups (6.1% primary vs 3.1% interval, p=0.10). Patients undergoing ostomy formation were more likely to have longer mean operative time (335 vs 229 min, p<0.001) and undergo small and large bowel resections at the time of cytoreductive surgery (44% vs 14%, p<0.001). Multivariate analysis revealed that a high surgical complexity score was associated with ostomy formation. Of the patients who underwent ostomy formation, 13 (43.3%) underwent stoma reversal including 11 ileostomies and two colostomies. Median time to ostomy reversal was 7 months. CONCLUSION Bowel surgery is more common among patients undergoing primary surgery as compared with interval surgery, but this does not result in an increased risk of ostomy formation.
