Postoperative outcomes of surgical delay in inflammatory bowel disease patients: a multicenter cohort study. Updates Surg 2024:10.1007/s13304-024-01893-5.

Abstract
Postponement of surgical inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) care may lead to disease progression. This study aims to determine the influence of delayed surgical IBD procedures on clinical outcomes. This multicenter retrospective cohort study included IBD patients who underwent a surgical procedure during the Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic from March 16, 2020, to December 31, 2020, and were compared to a pre-COVID-19 cohort. The primary endpoint was determining the number of (major) postoperative complications. Secondary endpoints were the time interval between surgical indication and performance of the surgical procedure and the risk factors of postoperative complications using multivariate analysis. Eighty-one IBD patients who underwent a surgical procedure were included. The median time interval between surgical indication and performance of the surgical procedure did not differ between the COVID-19 and pre-COVID-19 cohorts (34 vs. 33.5 days, p = 0.867). Multivariate analysis revealed a longer time interval between surgical indication and surgical procedure significantly correlated with the risk of developing postoperative complications [odds ratio (OR) 1.03, p = 0.034]. Moreover, previous surgery was identified as an independent predictor (OR 4.25, p = 0.018) for an increased risk of developing major postoperative complications. There was no significant surgical delay for patients with IBD in the COVID-19 pandemic cohort compared to the pre-pandemic cohort. However, a longer time interval between surgical indication and surgical procedure significantly correlated with the risk of developing postoperative complications. In the event of future scarcity in healthcare, efforts should be made to continue surgical procedures in IBD patients.

Dig Liver Dis 2024:S1590-8658(24)00315-3. [PMID: 38616140 DOI: 10.1016/j.dld.2024.03.014] [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: 11/20/2023] [Revised: 02/15/2024] [Accepted: 03/15/2024] [Indexed: 04/16/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS The terminal ileum is the most frequent site of Crohn's Disease (CD) that necessitates surgery. Of the postoperative complications (POCs) associated with ileocaecal resection for CD, intra-abdominal septic complications (IASCs) include anastomotic leak, abscesses, and entero-cutaneous fistula. We aimed to identify predictors of IASCs and severe POCs (Clavien-Dindo ≥3) after primary ileocaecal resection for CD. METHODS This is a retrospective single-centre cohort study including all consecutive primary ileocaecal resection for CD in a tertiary IBD centre between 2004 and 2021. RESULTS A total of 853 patients underwent primary ileocaecal resection for CD. 307 (36.6 %) patients were receiving antibiotics, 253 (29.8 %), systemic steroids, and 178 (21.0 %) oral budesonide at surgery. At 90 days, 260 (30.8 %) patients developed POCs, 62 (7.3 %) severe POCs, and 56 (6.6 %) IASCs. At multivariate analysis, severe POCs were associated with lower preoperative albumin levels (OR1.58, 95 %CI 1.02-2.50, p = 0.040) and a history of cardiovascular diseases (OR2.36, 95 %CI 1.08-7.84, p = 0.030). IASCs were associated with lower preoperative albumin levels (OR1.81, 95 %CI 1.15-2.94, p = 0.011) and oral budesonide (OR2.07, 95 %CI 1.12-3.83, p = 0.021) with a dose-dependent effect. CONCLUSIONS The independent association, dose-dependent effect, and biological plausibility of budesonide and IASCs suggest a robust causal effect. Oral budesonide should be carefully assessed before primary ileocaecal resection for CD.

Predicting short-term major postoperative complications in intestinal resection for Crohn's disease: A machine learning-based study. World J Gastrointest Surg 2024; 16:717-730. [PMID: 38577067 PMCID: PMC10989335 DOI: 10.4240/wjgs.v16.i3.717] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/27/2023] [Revised: 01/12/2024] [Accepted: 02/18/2024] [Indexed: 03/22/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Due to the complexity and numerous comorbidities associated with Crohn's disease (CD), the incidence of postoperative complications is high, significantly impacting the recovery and prognosis of patients. Consequently, additional studies are required to precisely predict short-term major complications following intestinal resection (IR), aiding surgical decision-making and optimizing patient care. AIM To construct novel models based on machine learning (ML) to predict short-term major postoperative complications in patients with CD following IR. METHODS A retrospective analysis was performed on clinical data derived from a patient cohort that underwent IR for CD from January 2017 to December 2022. The study participants were randomly allocated to either a training cohort or a validation cohort. The logistic regression and random forest (RF) were applied to construct models in the training cohort, with model discrimination evaluated using the area under the curves (AUC). The validation cohort assessed the performance of the constructed models. RESULTS Out of the 259 patients encompassed in the study, 5.0% encountered major postoperative complications (Clavien-Dindo ≥ III) within 30 d following IR for CD. The AUC for the logistic model was 0.916, significantly lower than the AUC of 0.965 for the RF model. The logistic model incorporated a preoperative CD activity index (CDAI) of ≥ 220, a diminished preoperative serum albumin level, conversion to laparotomy surgery, and an extended operation time. A nomogram for the logistic model was plotted. Except for the surgical approach, the other three variables ranked among the top four important variables in the novel ML model. CONCLUSION Both the nomogram and RF exhibited good performance in predicting short-term major postoperative complications in patients with CD, with the RF model showing more superiority. A preoperative CDAI of ≥ 220, a diminished preoperative serum albumin level, and an extended operation time might be the most crucial variables. The findings of this study can assist clinicians in identifying patients at a higher risk for complications and offering personalized perioperative management to enhance patient outcomes.

Abstract
AIM The gastrointestinal bile acid (BA)/microbiota axis has emerged as a potential mediator of health and disease, particularly in relation to pathologies such as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and colorectal cancer. Whilst it presents an exciting new avenue for therapies, it has not yet been characterized in surgical resection of the ileum, where BA reabsorption occurs. The identification of BA/microbiota signatures may provide future therapies with perioperative personalized medicine. In this work we conduct a systematic review with the aim of investigating the microbiome and BA changes that are associated with resection of the ileum. METHOD The databases included were MEDLINE, EMBASE, Web of Science and Cochrane libraries. The outcomes of interest were faecal microbiome and BA signatures after ileal resection. RESULTS Of the initial 3106 articles, three studies met the inclusion/exclusion criteria for data extraction. A total of 257 patients (46% surgery, 54% nonsurgery controls) were included in the three studies. Two studies included patients with short bowel syndrome and the other included patients with IBD. Large-scale microbiota changes were reported. In general, alpha diversity had decreased amongst patients with ileal surgery. Phylum-level changes included decreased Bacteroidetes and increased Proteobacteria and Fusobacteria in patients with an intestinal resection. Surgery was associated with increased total faecal BAs, cholic acid and chenodeoxycholic acid. There were decreases in deoxycholic acid and glycine and taurine conjugated bile salts. Integrated BA and microbiota data identified correlations with several bacterial families and BA. CONCLUSION The BA/microbiota axis is still a novel area with minimal observational data in surgery. Further mechanistic research is necessary to further explore this and identify its role in improving perioperative outcomes.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Complications after ileocecal resection for Crohn's disease (CD) are frequent. The aim of this study was to analyze risk factors for postoperative complications after these procedures. MATERIALS AND METHODS We conducted a retrospective analysis of patients treated surgically for Crohn's disease limited to the ileocecal region during an 8-year period at 10 medical centers specialized in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) in Latin America. Patients were allocated into 2 groups: those who presented major postoperative complications (Clavien-Dindo > II), the "postoperative complication" (POC) group; and those who did not, the "no postoperative complication" (NPOC) group. Preoperative characteristics and intraoperative variables were analyzed to identify possible factors for POC. RESULTS In total, 337 patients were included, with 51 (15.13%) in the POC cohort. Smoking was more prevalent among the POC patients (31.37 vs. 17.83; P = .026), who presented more preoperative anemia (33.33 vs. 17.48%; P = .009), required more urgent care (37.25 vs. 22.38; P = .023), and had lower albumin levels. Complicated disease was associated with higher postoperative morbidity. POC patients had a longer operative time (188.77 vs. 143.86 min; P = .005), more intraoperative complications (17.65 vs. 4.55%; P < .001), and lower rates of primary anastomosis. In the multivariate analysis, both smoking and intraoperative complications were independently associated with the occurrence of major postoperative complications. CONCLUSION This study shows that risk factors for complications after primary ileocecal resections for Crohn's disease in Latin America are similar to those reported elsewhere. Future efforts in the region should be aimed at improving these outcomes by controlling some of the identified factors.

Abstract
PURPOSE Recently, recommendations on perioperative care have been published to optimize postoperative outcomes in preoperative patients with inflammatory bowel disease. This study evaluated the current use of preoperative screening and prehabilitation strategies (PS) prior to elective ileocolic resection (ICR) in patients with Crohn's disease (CD). METHODS Patients with CD who underwent an elective ICR were identified from a Dutch prospective cohort study. Primary endpoint was to evaluate to what extent IBD-relevant PS were applied in patients with CD prior to ICR according to the current recommendations. RESULTS In total, 109 CD patients were included. Screening of nutritional status was performed in 56% of the patients and revealed malnutrition in 46% of these patients. Of the malnourished patients, 46% was referred to a dietitian. Active smoking and alcohol consumption were reported in 20% and 28%; none of these patients were referred for a cessation program. A preoperative anemia was diagnosed in 61%, and ferritin levels were assessed in 26% of these patients. Iron therapy was started in 25% of the patients with an iron deficiency anemia. Exposure to corticosteroids at time of ICR was reported in 29% and weaned off in 3%. Consultation of a dietitian, psychologist, and physiotherapist was reported in 36%, 7%, and 3%. Physical fitness was assessed in none of the patients. CONCLUSION PS are not routinely applied and not individually tailored in the preoperative setting prior to elective ICR in patients with CD. Prior to implementation, future research on the costs and effectiveness of PS on postoperative outcomes and quality of life is necessary.

Dis Colon Rectum 2023; 66:1373-1382.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Redo ileocolic resection for recurrent Crohn's disease is associated with increased technical complexity and higher complication rates compared to primary resection. Literature concerning redo surgery for recurrent Crohn's disease is scarce and it is controversial whether a redo is a risk factor for postoperative anastomotic leak. OBJECTIVE This study aimed to hypothesized that redo ileocolic resection for Crohn's disease is an independent risk factor for anastomotic leak. DESIGN Retrospective, case-control study from 1994 to 2019 with multivariate analysis and propensity score weighting. SETTING Quaternary, IBD-referral center. PATIENTS Adult patients aged >18 years were included in the study. INTERVENTIONS Primary or redo ileocolic resection with an anastomosis, with or without diverting ileostomy. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Thirty-day anastomotic leak rate. RESULTS A total of 991 patients (56% primary and 44% redo ileocolic resections) were included. Patients who underwent redo resection were significantly older with more comorbidities, fewer medications, and less fistulizing disease compared to the primary group. On univariate analysis, patients who underwent redo resection had more overall complications (50.5% vs 36.2%, p < 0.001), and the cumulative number of prior ileocolic resections was significantly associated with increased risk for overall morbidity ( p < 0.001). There were 31 (3%) anastomotic leaks; leak rates did not differ between groups ( p = 0.60). Multivariable analysis indicated that extensive adhesiolysis ( p < 0.001), ileostomy omission ( p = 0.009), and intraoperative abscess/fistula ( p = 0.02) were independently associated with leaks but not redo resection ( p = 0.27). Patients with 0, 1, 2, or 3 of these risk factors had observed leak rates of 1.1%, 1.3%, 6.0%, and 11.6.% ( p = 0.03), respectively. LIMITATIONS The limitations of this study were selection bias, referral bias, and single quaternary center. CONCLUSIONS Compared to primary procedures, redo ileocolic resection for recurrent Crohn's disease is associated with increased overall morbidity but not anastomotic leak.

En el análisis univariado, los pacientes reoperados tuvieron más complicaciones generales (50,5% frente a 36,2%, p < 0,001) y el número acumulado de resecciones ileocólicas previas se asoció significativamente con un mayor riesgo de morbilidad general ( p < 0,001). Hubo 31 (3%) fugas anastomóticas; las tasas de fuga no difirieron entre los grupos ( p = 0,6). El análisis multivariado indicó que la adhesiolisis extensa ( p < 0,001), la omisión de ileostomía ( p = 0,009) y el absceso/fístula intraoperatorios ( p = 0,02) se asociaron de forma independiente con fugas, pero no con nueva resección ( p = 0,27). Los pacientes con 0, 1, 2 o 3 de estos factores de riesgo observaron tasas de fuga del 1,1%, 1,3%, 6,0% y 11,6% ( p = 0,03), respectivamente.LIMITACIONES:Sesgo de selección, Sesgo de referencia, un centro de cuarto nivelCONCLUSIÓN:En comparación con los procedimientos primarios, la resección ileocólica para la enfermedad de Crohn recurrente se asocia con una mayor morbilidad general, pero no con una fuga anastomótica.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We aimed to develop criteria for treatment intensification in patients with (1) luminal Crohn's disease (CD), (2) CD with perianal disease and/or fistula, (3) CD with small bowel stenosis, (4) in the postoperative setting, and (5) for discontinuing or reducing the dose of treatment in patients with CD. METHODS PubMed and Embase were searched for studies published since 1998 which may be relevant to the five defined topics. Results were assessed for relevant studies, with preference given to data from randomized, controlled studies. For each question, a core panel of 12 gastroenterologists defined the treatment target and developed statements, based on the literature, current guidelines, and relevant additional studies. The evidence supporting each statement was graded using the Oxford Centre for Evidence-Based Medicine: Levels of Evidence (March 2009). A modified Delphi process was used to refine statements and gain agreement from 54 Japanese specialists at in-person and online meetings conducted between October 2020 and April 2021. RESULTS Seventeen statements were developed for treatment intensification in luminal CD (targeting endoscopic remission), six statements for treatment intensification in perianal/fistulizing CD (targeting healing of perianal lesions and complete closure of the fistula), six statements for treatment intensification in CD with small bowel stenosis (targeting resolution of obstructive symptoms), seven statements for treatment intensification after surgery (targeting endoscopic remission), and five statements for discontinuing or reducing the dose of treatment in patients with CD. CONCLUSIONS These statements provide guidance on how and when to intensify or de-intensify treatment for a broad spectrum of patients with CD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Many patients with inflammatory bowel disease [IBD] require surgery during their disease course. Having individual risk predictions available prior to surgery could aid in better informed decision making for personalised treatment trajectories in IBD surgery. The American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program [ACS NSQIP] has developed a surgical risk calculator that calculates risks for postoperative outcomes using 20 patient and surgical predictors. We aimed to validate the calculator for IBD surgery to determine its accuracy in this patient cohort. METHODS Predicted risks were calculated for patients operated for IBD between December 2017 and January 2022 at two tertiary centres and compared with actual outcomes within 30 postoperative days. Predictive performance was assessed for several postoperative complications, using metrics for discrimination and calibration. RESULTS Risks were calculated for 508 patient trajectories undergoing surgery for IBD. Incidence of any complication, serious complications, reoperation, and readmission were 32.1%, 21.1%, 15.2%, and 18.3%, respectively. Of 212 patients with an anastomosis, 19 experienced leakage [9.0%]. Discriminative performance and calibration were modest. Risk prediction for any complication, serious complication, reoperation, readmission, and anastomotic leakage had a c statistic of 0.605 (95% confidence interval [CI] 0.534-0.640), 0.623 [95% CI 0.558-0.688], 0.590 [95% CI 0.513-0.668], 0.621 [95% CI 0.557-0.685], and 0.574 [95% CI 0.396-0.751], respectively, and a Brier score of 0.240, 0.166, 0.138, 0.152, and 0.113, respectively. CONCLUSIONS The accuracy of risks calculated by the ACS NSQIP Surgical Risk Calculator was deemed insufficient for patients undergoing surgery for IBD, generally underestimating postoperative risks. Recalibration or additional variables could be necessary to predict risks in this cohort.

The Effect of Anti-Tumor Necrosis Factor-Alpha Therapy within 12 Weeks Prior to Surgery on Postoperative Complications in Inflammatory Bowel Disease: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. J Clin Med 2022; 11:jcm11236884. [PMID: 36498459 PMCID: PMC9738467 DOI: 10.3390/jcm11236884] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/18/2022] [Revised: 11/07/2022] [Accepted: 11/12/2022] [Indexed: 11/24/2022] Open
Abstract
The rate of abdominal surgical interventions and associated postoperative complications in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients is still substantially high. There is an ongoing debate as to whether or not patients who undergo treatment with anti-tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) agents may have an increased risk for general and surgical postoperative complications. Therefore, a systematic review and meta-analysis was conducted in order to assess the effect of anti-TNF-α treatment within 12 weeks (washout period) prior to abdominal surgery on 30-day postoperative complications in patients with IBD. The results of previously published meta-analyses examining the effect of preoperative anti-TNF-α treatment on postoperative complications reported conflicting findings which is why we specifically focus on the effect of anti-TNF-α treatment within 12 weeks prior to surgery. PubMed, Cochrane, Scopus, Web of Science, World Health Organization Trial Registry, ClinicalTrials.gov and reference lists were searched (June 1995−February 2022) to identify studies, investigating effects of anti-TNF-α treatment prior to abdominal surgery on postoperative complications in IBD patients. Pooled odds ratios (OR) with 95% confidence intervals (CI) were calculated and subgroup analyses were performed. In this case, 55 cohort studies (22,714 patients) were included. Overall, postoperative complications (OR, 1.23; 95% CI, 1.04−1.45; p = 0.02), readmission (OR, 1.39; 95% CI, 1.11−1.73; p = 0.004), and intra-abdominal septic complications (OR, 1.89; 95% CI, 1.44−2.49; p < 0.00001) were significantly higher for anti-TNF-α-treated patients. Significantly higher intra-abdominal abscesses and readmission were found for anti-TNF-α-treated CD patients (p = 0.05; p = 0.002). Concomitant treatment with immunosuppressives in <50% of anti-TNF-α-treated patients was associated with significantly lower mortality rates (OR, 0.32; 95% CI, 0.12−0.83; p = 0.02). Anti-TNF-α treatment within 12 weeks prior to surgery is associated with higher short-term postoperative complication rates (general and surgical) for patients with IBD, especially CD.

Abstract
Crohn's disease (CD) is a chronic inflammatory disease mainly affecting the gastrointestinal tract. With the increased availability of modalities in the last two decades, the treatment of CD has advanced remarkably. Although medical treatment is the mainstay of therapy, most patients require surgery during the course of their illness, especially those who experience complications. Nutritional optimization and ERAS implementation are crucial for patients with CD who require surgical intervention to reduce postoperative complications. The increased surgical risk was found to be associated with the use of corticosteroids, but the association of surgical risk with immunomodulators, biologic therapy, such as anti-TNF mediations, anti-integrin medications, and anti-IL 12/23 was low in certainty. Decisions about preoperative medication must be made on an individual case-dependent basis. Preoperative imaging studies can assist in the planning of appropriate surgical strategies and approaches. However, patients must be informed of any alterations to their treatment. In summary, the management of perioperative medications and surgery-related decision-making should be individualized and patient-centered based on a multidisciplinary approach.

Abstract
Patients with Crohn’s disease (CD) are at a considerable risk for intestinal surgery. Approximately 25% of patients with CD will undergo an intestinal resection within 10 years of diagnosis. Postoperative complications after CD surgery have been reported in 20%-47% of the patients. Both general and CD-related risk factors are associated with postoperative complications, and comprise non-modifiable (e.g., age) and potentially modifiable risk factors (e.g., malnutrition). Prehabilitation focuses on the preoperative period with strategies designed to optimize modifiable risk factors concerning the physical and mental condition of the individual patient. The aim of prehabilitation is to enhance postoperative recovery and return to or even improve preoperative functional capacity. Preoperative improvement of nutritional status, physical fitness, cessation of smoking, psychological support, and critical revision of preoperative use of CD medication are important strategies. Studies of the effect on postoperative outcome in CD patients are scarce, and guidelines lack recommendations on tailored management. In this opinion review, we review the current evidence on the impact of screening and management of nutritional status, physical fitness, CD medication and laboratory values on the postoperative course following an intestinal resection in CD patients. In addition, we aim to provide guidance for individualized multimodal prehabilitation in clinical practice concerning these modifiable factors.

Abstract
Introduction Enhanced recovery after surgery protocols are commonly used, but their utility in patients with inflammatory bowel disease and steroid use is poorly studied. We sought to examine influence of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and steroid use on hospital length of stay (LOS) and operative duration in patients undergoing colectomies in the era of ERAS. Methods We performed retrospective review of our institutional National Surgical Quality Improvement Program (NSQIP) registry (2016-2018) for colectomies. We performed 2 distinct analyses to examine influence of steroids and IBD on LOS and operative duration. Multivariable linear regression was used to predict outcomes after adjusting for relevant perioperative features. Results There were 366 patients in the cohort; 17.8% were on steroids and 16.4% had IBD. Patients using steroids had longer LOS (6 vs 4 days, P < .0001). IBD patients had a longer LOS (7 vs 5 days, P < .0001) and longer operative duration (383 min vs 335.5 minute, P = .01) compared to non-IBD patients. On multivariable analysis, steroid use was not associated with increased LOS or operative duration. Inflammatory bowel disease was associated with an increased hospital LOS and operative duration. Discussion Patients on steroids had longer LOS when compared to patients not on steroids. Inflammatory bowel disease regardless of steroid use was found to be a significant risk factor for both increased LOS and operative duration. A closer look at preoperative physiology may help to tailor ERAS protocols in patients with inflammatory conditions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Massive or repeated intestinal resections for Crohn's disease (CD) could lead to disabling consequences. The present study aimed to assess the effect of preoperative anti-TNF therapy on the length of resected bowel and identify risk factors for postoperative morbidity following ileocolic resection for CD. METHODS Patients undergoing elective ileocolic resection for CD were included prospectively. Medical variables including demographics, Montréal classification, preoperative treatment, surgical details and 30-day postoperative morbidity were collected. Potential impact of preoperative anti-TNF treatment on length of ileocolic specimen and risk factors for postoperative morbidity were investigated. RESULTS One hundred and eight-four patients were included in this study, and 66 (35.9%) of them received anti-TNF agents within 8 weeks prior to surgery. Primary anastomosis was performed in 145 patients (78.8%). The mean length of resected intestine was 10 cm shorter in subjects receiving preoperative anti-TNF treatment than those without preoperative anti-TNF therapy (P < 0.001). The rates of postoperative overall, infectious and intra-abdominal septic morbidity were 29.9%, 19.0% and 7.6%, respectively. In multivariate analysis, anti-TNF therapy < 8 weeks before surgery was independently associated with a shorter length of resected bowel but didn't increase overall and septic complications, while systemic steroids use within 8 weeks prior to surgery independently increased overall complications and intra-abdominal sepsis. CONCLUSIONS Preoperative anti-TNF therapy was associated with a shorter length of resected bowel but not the overall and septic postoperative complications in ileocolic resection for CD. Weaning off systemic steroids before surgery may improve postoperative outcomes in patients with CD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Despite the recent advances in medical therapy, the majority of patients with Crohn's disease (CD) still require surgery during the course of their life. While a correlation between early primary surgery and lower recurrence rates has been shown, the impact of surgical timing on postoperative complications is unclear. The aim of this study is to assess the impact of surgical timing on 30-day postoperative morbidity. METHODS This is a retrospective analysis of a prospectively collected database of 307 consecutive patients submitted to elective primary ileocolic resection for CD at our institution between July 1994 and July 2018. The following variables were considered: age, gender, year of treatment, smoking habits, preoperative steroid therapy, presence of fistula or abscess, type of anastomosis, and time interval between diagnosis of CD and surgery. Univariate and multivariate logistic regressions were performed to examine the association between risk factors and complications. RESULTS Major complications occurred in 29 patients, while anastomotic leak was observed in 16 patients. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that surgical timing in years (OR 1.10 p = 0.002 for a unit change), along with preoperative use of steroids (OR 5.45 p < 0.001) were independent risk factors for major complications. Moreover, preoperative treatment with steroids (6.59 p = 0.003) and surgical timing (OR 1.10 p = 0.023 for a unit change) were independently associated with anastomotic leak, while handsewn anastomosis (OR 2.84 p = 0.100) showed a trend. CONCLUSIONS Our results suggest that the longer is the time interval between diagnosis of CD and surgery, the greater is the risk of major surgical complications and of anastomotic leak.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Therapeutic options for pediatric inflammatory bowel disease (PIBD) have dramatically changed over the last 20 years. However, the impact of modern medical management on PIBD outcomes remains unclear. We aimed to fill this gap in the literature by using a large, validated, national database, to study the change in hospitalization rates, surgical rates, and postoperative complications in PIBD over the last decade. METHODS The National Inpatient Sample (NIS) Database and ICD-9-CM codes were utilized to identify inpatient admissions with a primary or secondary diagnosis of pediatric Crohn's disease (CD) or ulcerative colitis (UC) from 2002-2015. Trends in hospitalizations, comorbidities (including malnutrition and weight loss), surgical procedures, and postoperative complications were examined using joinpoint regression analysis, a statistical modeling approach to evaluate the extent to which the rate of a condition changes over time. RESULTS There were 119,282 admissions for PIBD during the study period. The annual incidence of hospitalization increased significantly over time for both CD (average annual percent change [AAPC] 6.0%) and UC (AAPC 7.2%). The rate of intestinal resection decreased in CD patients (AAPC -6.4%) while postoperative complications remained unchanged. However, comorbidities increased significantly in CD patients (AAPC 6.8%). For pediatric UC patients, postoperative complications (AAPC 6.7%), and comorbidities (AAPC 10.2%) increased significantly over time while intestinal resection rates remained stable. Intestinal resection rate in pediatric CD has decreased over time, but not in pediatric UC. CONCLUSION AND GLOBAL HEALTH IMPLICATIONS Annual incidence of hospitalization and comorbidities continue to increase in PIBD. Intestinal resection rate in pediatric CD has decreased over time, but not in pediatric UC. Our findings emphasize the critical need for prevention and novel therapeutic options for this vulnerable patient population.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Immunosuppressants represent an effective pharmacological treatment for the remission and management of Crohn's disease (CD); however, it has not been well-defined if these medications are associated with an increased incidence of postoperative complications after intestinal surgery. This retrospective study evaluated the association between immunosuppressive treatment and complications following bowel resection in patients with CD. METHODS A total of 426 patients with CD who underwent abdominal surgery between 2001 and 2018 were included in the study. The participants were divided into two groups. In the first group, patients were under immunosuppressive treatment at the time of surgical resection, while in the second group, patients had never received pharmacological therapy for CD before surgery. RESULTS No statistically significant difference was found in the incidence of postoperative complications between the two groups. Double or triple immunosuppressive therapy was not associated with increased complications compared to monotherapy or no pharmacological treatment. Preoperative risk factors such as hypoalbuminemia, abscess, fistula, intestinal perforation, long duration of symptoms, and the intraoperative performance of more than one anastomosis were related to increased rates of postoperative complications. Factors affecting the occurrence of postoperative complications in the univariate analysis were included in the multivariate analysis using a stepwise logistic regression model, and these factors were also related to increased rates of postoperative surgical complications. CONCLUSION Immunosuppressive therapy was not associated with increased rates of postoperative complications following bowel resection in patients with CD.

Abstract
Anastomotic leaks are a major source of morbidity after colorectal surgery. There is a myriad of risk factors that may contribute to anastomotic leaks. These risk factors can be categorized as modifiable, nonmodifiable, and intraoperative factors. Identification of these risk factors allows for preoperative optimization that may minimize the risk of anastomotic leak. Knowledge of such high-risk features may also affect intraoperative decision-making regarding the creation of an anastomosis, consideration for proximal diversion, or placement of a drain. A thorough understanding of the interplay between risk factors, indications for proximal diversion, and utility of drain placement is imperative for colorectal surgeons.

Abstract
Anastomotic leaks after colorectal surgery is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Understanding the impact of anastomotic leaks and their risk factors can help the surgeon avoid any modifiable pitfalls. The diagnosis of an anastomotic leak can be elusive but can be discerned by the patient's global clinical assessment, adjunctive laboratory data and radiological assessment. The use of inflammatory markers such as C-Reactive Protein and Procalcitonin have recently gained traction as harbingers for a leak. A CT scan and/or a water soluble contrast study can further elucidate the location and severity of a leak. Further intervention is then individualized on the spectrum of simple observation with resolution or surgical intervention.

Abstract
Surgeons universally dread gastrointestinal anastomotic leaks, yet the precise definition is not widely agreed on despite international consensus guidelines. Likewise, leaks are not uniformly reported which makes comparisons across studies flawed. Leak rates range from 1 to 3% for ileocolonic, 0.5 to 18% for colorectal, and 5 to 19% for coloanal anastomoses. The sequelae of an anastomotic leak vary but generally correlate with the need for a change in clinical management, from minimal changes to the need for reoperation. Short- and long-term outcomes can be life-altering or life-threatening. Temporary or permanent stomas may be necessary and low pelvic anastomotic leaks may affect bowel function. For cancer patients, leaks can delay treatment and negatively affect oncologic outcomes. In Crohn's patients, leaks are associated with higher recurrence rates. In essence, the lack of agreement on the definition of an anastomotic leak inhibits meaningful understand of its epidemiology, prevention, and treatment.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Current clinical algorithms position surgery as the last option in pediatric Crohn disease (CD). Studies suggest improved outcomes with earlier surgery, but pediatric postoperative outcomes data in the biologic era are limited. We aimed to describe the preoperative management and postoperative outcomes in a pediatric CD cohort who underwent ileocolic resection (ICR) at a tertiary care inflammatory bowel disease center over the last decade. METHODS Single-center, retrospective study of pediatric (<18 years) CD patients who underwent ICR between 2008 and 2019 with primary outcome of rate of endoscopic recurrence (Rutgeerts' >i2) at 2 years post-ICR. Key secondary outcomes included endoscopic remission (Rutgeerts' i0), frequency of 30-day postoperative complications, anthropometric changes, and histologic recurrence. Uni- and multivariable analyses examined associations of clinical/laboratory characteristics with endoscopic recurrence. Factors predictive of 30-day complications were also analyzed. RESULTS Seventy-eight children underwent ICR a median of 17.8 months (interquartile range [IQR] 2.6-53.9) from diagnosis. Median age at diagnosis and surgery was 13.8 (11.1-16.7) and 16.8 years (15.1-17.8), respectively. In the 41 patients with >1 post-operative endoscopy, the rate of endoscopic recurrence was 46% at 2 years (median time to recurrence: 10 [7-20] months). Histologic recurrence was present in 44% in endoscopic remission (κ = 0.11, P = 0.53). Endoscopic recurrence was associated with younger age at diagnosis and longer disease duration. 30-day complications occurred at a rate of 18%; only 1% experienced severe complications. All anthropometric measures significantly improved after surgery. CONCLUSIONS Given the inherent risk of postoperative recurrence associated with age and disease duration, children would benefit from postoperative surveillance and effective prophylaxis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Laparoscopic ileocolic resection (LICR) is the preferred surgical approach for primary ileocolic Crohn’s disease (CD) because it has greater recovery benefits than open ICR (OICR).
AIM To compare short- and long-term outcomes in patients who underwent LICR and OICR.
METHODS Patients who underwent ICR for primary CD from 2006 to 2017 at a single tertiary center specializing in CD were included. Patients who underwent LICR and OICR were subjected to propensity-score matching analysis. Patients were propensity-score matched 1:1 by factors potentially associated with 30-d perioperative morbidity. These included demographic characteristics and disease- and treatment-related variables. Factors were compared using univariate and multivariate analyses. Long-term surgical recurrence-free survival (SRFS) in the two groups was determined by the Kaplan-Meier method and compared by the log-rank test.
RESULTS During the study period, 348 patients underwent ICR, 211 by the open approach and 137 laparoscopically. Propensity-score matching yielded 102 pairs of patients. The rate of postoperative complication was significantly lower (14% versus 32%, P = 0.003), postoperative hospital stay significantly shorter (8 d versus 13 d, P = 0.003), and postoperative pain on day 7 significantly lower (1.4 versus 2.3, P < 0.001) in propensity-score matched patients who underwent LICR than in those who underwent OICR. Multivariate analysis showed that postoperative complications were significantly associated with preoperative treatment with biologics [odds ratio (OR): 3.14, P = 0.01] and an open approach to surgery (OR: 2.86, P = 0.005). The 5- and 10-year SRFS rates in the matched pairs were 92.9% and 83.3%, respectively, with SRFS rates not differing significantly between the OICR and LICR groups. The performance of additional procedures was an independent risk factor for surgical recurrence [hazard ratio (HR): 3.28, P = 0.02].
CONCLUSION LICR yielded better short-term outcomes and postoperative recovery than OICR, with no differences in long-term outcomes. LICR may provide greater benefits in selected patients with primary CD.

Abstract
Background
Crohn's disease needs a multidisciplinary approach, and surgery will ultimately be necessary for most patients. Complications usually occur after surgery.
Objective
This study aims to present complication rates in surgically treated Crohn's disease patients at a single institution and to determine possible risk factors.
Methods
A retrospective analysis of 112 consecutive surgery performed on Crohn's disease patients between 2003 and 2015. The demographic data, patient and disease characteristics, surgery type, and complications were analyzed.
Results
Of 112 patients, 64 (57.1%) were male and 48 (42.9%) were female. The mean age was 34 (range, 18–78) years. The mean follow-up was 114 ± 32.4 (range, 61–197) months. The most common early complications were intra-abdominal abscess formation (n = 10, 8.9%) and wound infection (n = 7, 6.26%). The incisional hernia was the most common late complication (n = 4, 3.6%). Nonmodifiable disease features associated with complications were colonic involvement of the disease (P = 0.001), penetrating disease character (P = 0.037), stoma formation (P = 0.000), fistula (P = 0.008), and concomitant fistula and intra-abdominal abscess existence (P = 0.043). Stoma formation was found to be an independent risk factor for complications (P = 0.001).
Conclusions
Colonic involvement, penetrating disease, fistula, concomitant abscess and fistula, and stoma formation were identified as nonmodifiable risk factors for complications after surgery for Crohn's disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Diagnosis and management of inflammatory bowel diseases [IBD] requires a lifelong multidisciplinary approach. The quality of medical reporting is crucial in this context. The present topical review addresses the need for optimised reporting in endoscopy, surgery, and histopathology. METHODS A consensus expert panel consisting of gastroenterologists, surgeons, and pathologists, convened by the European Crohn's and Colitis Organisation, performed a systematic literature review. The following topics were covered: in endoscopy: [i] general IBD endoscopy; [ii] disease activity and surveillance; [iii] endoscopy treatment in IBD; in surgery: [iv] medical history with surgical relevance, surgical indication, and strategy; [v] operative approach; [vi] intraoperative disease description; [vii] operative steps; in pathology: [viii] macroscopic assessment and interpretation of resection specimens; [ix] IBD histology, including biopsies, surgical resections, and neoplasia; [x] IBD histology conclusion and report. Statements were developed using a Delphi methodology incorporating two consecutive rounds. Current practice positions were set when ≥ 80% of participants agreed on a recommendation. RESULTS Thirty practice positions established a standard terminology for optimal reporting in endoscopy, surgery, and histopathology. Assessment of disease activity, surveillance recommendations, advice to surgeons for operative indication and strategies, including margins and extent of resection, and diagnostic criteria of IBD, as well as guidance for the interpretation of dysplasia and cancer, were handled. A standardised report including a core set of items to include in each specialty report, was defined. CONCLUSIONS Interdisciplinary high-quality care requires thorough and standardised reporting across specialties. This topical review offers an actionable framework and practice recommendations to optimise reporting in endoscopy, surgery, and histopathology.

Abstract
Abstract
Background and objectives Surgery for Crohn disease has a wide range of factors that are being studied as possible risk factors for postoperative complications. The later are a major problem in those patients and are associated with longer hospital stays and increased mortality and morbidity. Despite the debate regarding the influence of patients’ characteristics, preoperative and operative details, the risk factors are not fully identified. The debate has been focused on the new medical therapy and the time of surgery. Our goal was to help identify and confirm risk factors for postoperative complications.
Materials and methods A retrospective cohort study including all patients operated due to Crohn disease in São João Hospital Center from 2010 to 2015. We analyzed patient, preoperative and surgical characteristics. For postoperative complications data only those occurring within 30 days were included.
Results Neither age at diagnosis or previous corticotherapy/anti-TNF/ustekinumab was significantly associated with an increased risk in postoperative complications. Only age at surgery >40 years (Montreal Classification A1 + A2 vs. A3; OR = 4.12; p < 0.05) and the group others (occlusion vs. others [combination of intestinal perforation, mesenteric ischemia and postoperative complications] vs. fistula/abscess as indication for surgery; OR = 4.12; p < 0.05) remained as independent risk factors after multivariable regression analysis.
Conclusions We described clear associations between age at surgery >40 years and the group others (intestinal perforation, mesenteric ischemia and postoperative complications) and overall postoperative complications in Crohn disease. These results may suggest that surgery does not need to be delayed and, in some cases, should be anticipated.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Risk factors influencing the high postoperative morbidity in Crohn`s disease are controversially discussed but the role of cumulative structural bowel damage, as assessed by the Crohn's disease digestive damage score (Lémann Index), has been neglected so far. Our aim was evaluating the influence of the Lémann Index on postoperative complications and investigating its suitability for surgical decision making. METHODS A single-center, retrospective cohort study was conducted including Crohn`s disease patients who underwent ileocolic anastomosis. Lémann Indices were calculated and, additionally, categorized into three groups [0-3; 3-10; >10] due to the strong influence of previous bowel resections on high indices. A multivariate regression model was used to analyze the index`s influence on postoperative complications. RESULTS Patients with higher Lémann Index were more likely to need open surgery (p < .001) or stoma creation (p = .03). Overall, of the 103 patients enrolled, 18 (17.5%) showed postoperative complications Clavien-Dindo > 2. The Lémann Index was higher in patients with complications compared to those without (median 6.15 [IQR 4.16-11.98] vs. 3.88 [1.63-12.63]), but not linearly associated with postoperative complications. After categorization, patients with Lémann Index 3-10 had an 8.42 (95% CI 1.8-54.55) times higher chance to develop a complication compared to patients with Lémann Index 0-3 (p = .01). CONCLUSIONS The Lémann Index might affect surgical decision making but is not linearly associated with postoperative morbidity. However, medium indices (3-10) - mainly accounted for by high amounts of intraabdominal active Crohn`s lesions - showed significantly higher rates of complications, potentially defining a group at risk.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction Ileocolic resection (ICR) is the most common surgical procedure performed for Crohn's disease (CD). Similarly, right-sided Colorectal cancer (CRC) is treated by the same operation. The primary aim of this study was to analyze and compare the frequency and profile of early postoperative complications of ICR between patients with CD and CRC.
Methods Retrospective and observational study with patients submitted to ICR from two Brazilian tertiary referral units in colorectal surgery. We included patients with diagnosis of CD or CRC, treated with ICR, at any stage of follow-up. Variables analyzed: age at surgery, gender, diagnosis, surgical approach (open or laparoscopy), type of anastomosis (hand-sewn/stapled; end-to-end/side-to-side), presence and type of early postoperative complications (30 days) and mortality, among others.
Results 109 patients were included, 73 with CD (67%) and 36 with CRC (33%). CD patients were younger (42.44 ± 12.73 years vs. 66.14 ± 11.02 years in the CRC groups, p < 0.0001) and had more previous resections (20 ± 27.4 in CD and 0 in CCR, p = 0.001). There were no significant differences between the groups in terms of overall early postoperative complications [17/73 (23.3%) in the CD and 5/36 (13.9%) in the CRC groups (p = 0.250)]. There was no significant difference between the groups in relation to anastomotic leakage (p = 0.185), surgical site infections (p = 0.883), other complications (0.829) and deaths (p = 0.069).
Conclusions There was no significant difference in early postoperative complications in patients with CD or CRC submitted to ICR.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess the impact of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) medications on postoperative infection risk within 30 days of surgery. METHODS We searched multiple electronic databases and reference lists of articles dating up to August 2018 for prospective and retrospective studies comparing postoperative infection risk in patients treated with an IBD medication perioperatively with the risk in patients who were not taking that medication. Outcomes were overall infectious complications and intra-abdominal infections within 30 days of surgery. RESULTS Sixty-three studies were included. Overall infectious complications were increased in patients who received anti-tumor necrosis factor (TNF) agents (odds ratio [OR] 1.26; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.07-1.50) and corticosteroids (OR 1.34; 95% CI, 1.25-1.44) and decreased in those who received 5-aminosalicylic acid (OR 0.63; 95% CI, 0.46-0.87). No difference was observed in those treated with immunomodulators (OR 1.08; 95% CI, 0.94-1.25) or anti-integrin agents (OR 1.06; 95% CI, 0.67-1.69). Both corticosteroids and anti-TNF agents were associated with increased intra-abdominal infection risk (OR 1.63; 95% CI, 1.33-2.00 and OR 1.46; 95% CI, 1.08-1.97, respectively), whereas no impact was observed with 5-aminosalicylates, immunomodulators, or anti-integrin therapy. Twenty-two studies had low risk of bias while the remaining studies had very high risk. CONCLUSIONS Corticosteroids and anti-TNF agents were associated with increased overall postoperative infection risk as well as intra-abdominal infection in IBD patients, whereas no increased risk was observed for immunomodulators or anti-integrin therapy. Although these results may result from residual confounding rather than from a true biological effect, prospective studies that control for potential confounding factors are required to generate higher-quality evidence.

Abstract
Introduction Abdominal surgery in patients with Crohn's disease (CD) is challenging, especially in the biologic era. The aim of this study was to evaluate factors associated with increased risk for postoperative complications in CD. Methods A retrospective study was conducted with consecutive patients who underwent abdominal surgery for CD from January 2012 to January 2018. Results Of 103 patients, 32% had postoperative complications. Gender, age, disease location and phenotype, hemoglobin and albumin levels, previous abdominal surgery, and preoperative optimization did not differ between the groups with or without complications. Thirty-five percent of the patients were under anti-TNF therapy, and this medication was not associated with increased risk for postoperative complications. Time since the onset of the disease was significantly higher in patients with complications (12.9 vs. 9.4, p = 0.04). In multivariate analysis, creation of ostomy and urgent surgery were the only variables independently associated with increased risk for complications (OR 3.2, 95% CI 1.12-9.46 and OR 2.94, 95% CI 0.98-9.09, respectively). Conclusion Urgent surgery for CD should preferably be performed in specialized centers, and creation of stoma is not necessarily associated with lower rate of postoperative complications but rather less severe complications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Medications used to treat inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) have significantly improved patient outcomes and delayed time to surgery. However, some of these therapies are recognized to increase the general risk of infection and have an unclear impact on postoperative infection risk. OBJECTIVES To assess the impact of perioperative IBD medications on the risk of postoperative infections within 30 days of surgery. SEARCH METHODS We searched the Cochrane IBD Group's Specialized Register (29 October 2019), MEDLINE (January 1966 to October 2019), Embase (January 1985 to October 2019), the Cochrane Library, ClinicalTrials.gov and the WHO International Clinical Trials Registry Platform from inception up to October 2019, and reference lists of articles. SELECTION CRITERIA Randomized controlled trials, quasi-randomized controlled trials, non-randomized controlled trials, prospective cohort studies, retrospective cohort studies, case-control studies and cross-sectional studies comparing participants treated with an IBD medication preoperatively or within 30 days postoperatively to those who were not taking that medication (either another active medication, placebo, or no treatment). We included published study reports and abstracts. DATA COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS Two review authors independently screened titles and abstracts and extracted data. The primary outcome was postoperative infection within 30 days of surgery. Secondary outcomes included incisional infections and wound dehiscence, intra-abdominal infectious complications and extra-abdominal infections. Three review authors assessed risks of bias using the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale. We contacted authors for additional information when data were missing. For the primary and secondary outcomes, we calculated odds ratios (ORs) and corresponding 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs) using the generic inverse variance method. When applicable, we analyzed adjusted and unadjusted data separately. We evaluated the certainty of the evidence using GRADE. MAIN RESULTS We included 68 observational cohort studies (total number of participants unknown because some studies did not report the number of participants). Of these, 48 studies reported including participants with Crohn's disease, 36 reported including participants with ulcerative colitis and five reported including participants with indeterminate colitis. All 42 studies that reported urgency of surgery included elective surgeries, with 31 (74%) of those also including emergency surgeries. Twenty-four studies had low risk of bias while the rest had very high risk. Based on pooling of adjusted data, we calculated ORs for postoperative total infection rates in participants who received corticosteroids (OR 1.70, 95% CI 1.38 to 2.09; low-certainty evidence), immunomodulators (OR 1.29, 95% CI 0.95 to 1.76; low-certainty evidence), anti-TNF agents (OR 1.60, 95% CI 1.20 to 2.13; very low-certainty evidence) and anti-integrin agents (OR 1.04, 95% CI 0.79 to 1.36; low-certainty evidence). We pooled unadjusted data to assess postoperative total infection rates for the use of aminosalicylates (5-ASA) (OR 0.76, 95% CI 0.51 to 1.14; very low-certainty evidence). One secondary outcome examined was wound-related complications in participants using: corticosteroids (OR 1.41, 95% CI 0.72 to 2.74; very low-certainty evidence), immunomodulators (OR 1.35, 95% CI 0.96 to 1.89; very low-certainty evidence), anti-TNF agents (OR 1.18, 95% CI 0.83 to 1.68; very low-certainty evidence) and anti-integrin agents (OR 1.64, 95% CI 0.77 to 3.50; very low-certainty evidence) compared to controls. Another secondary outcome examined the odds of postoperative intra-abdominal infections in participants using: corticosteroids (OR 1.53, 95% CI 1.28 to 1.84; very low-certainty evidence), 5-ASA (OR 0.77, 95% CI 0.45 to 1.33; very low-certainty evidence), immunomodulators (OR 0.86, 95% CI 0.66 to 1.12; very low-certainty evidence), anti-TNF agents (OR 1.38, 95% CI 1.04 to 1.82; very low-certainty evidence) and anti-integrin agents (OR 0.40, 95% CI 0.14 to 1.20; very low-certainty evidence) compared to controls. Lastly we checked the odds for extra-abdominal infections in participants using: corticosteroids (OR 1.23, 95% CI 0.97 to 1.55; very low-certainty evidence), immunomodulators (OR 1.17, 95% CI 0.80 to 1.71; very low-certainty evidence), anti-TNF agents (OR 1.34, 95% CI 0.96 to 1.87; very low-certainty evidence) and anti-integrin agents (OR 1.15, 95% CI 0.43 to 3.08; very low-certainty evidence) compared to controls. AUTHORS' CONCLUSIONS The evidence for corticosteroids, 5-ASA, immunomodulators, anti-TNF medications and anti-integrin medications was of low or very low certainty. The impact of these medications on postoperative infectious complications is uncertain and we can draw no firm conclusions about their safety in the perioperative period. Decisions on preoperative IBD medications should be tailored to each person's unique circumstances. Future studies should focus on controlling for potential confounding factors to generate higher-quality evidence.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The ileocecal region is most commonly involved in patients with Crohn's disease (CD). AREAS COVERED In the management of ileocecal CD, this review discusses the underlying clinical issues with perioperative management and surgical intervention. EXPERT OPINION Despite advances in medical treatments, surgery is required in a proportion of patients. Preoperative optimization including weaning of corticosteroids, initiation of enteral feeds, venous thromboembolism prophylaxis and smoking cessation may lead to improved postoperative outcomes. Several surgical approaches regarding anastomotic technique and range of mesentery division are now attempted to reduce the incidence of postoperative recurrence. Disease recurrence is common after surgery for CD. Early endoscopic assessment and subsequent treatment adjustment are optimal strategies for the prevention of recurrence after ileocolonic resection.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The advent of monoclonal antibody therapy for the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease has greatly changed the multidisciplinary management of these patients, including surgical approaches. As an increasing number of inflammatory bowel disease patients are being medically managed with monoclonal antibody therapy or combination therapy with immunomodulators, more patients are coming to the operating room having been exposed to these medical therapies. METHODS A search of the relevant literature regarding monoclonal antibody therapy and postoperative outcomes was performed. RESULTS Significant controversy remains regarding the association between monoclonal antibodies and postoperative outcomes. Different classes of monoclonal antibodies may have different impacts on infectious complications. Operations for Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis alter how we think about a change in care in the era of monoclonal antibodies. CONCLUSION In Crohn's disease, intestinal diversion may be considered in patient and disease specific scenarios and in ulcerative colitis, the use of a 3-stage approach to an ileal pouch is now more often used.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Postoperative intra-abdominal septic complications of Crohn's disease substantially increase the healthcare expenditure and prolong hospitalization. OBJECTIVE We aimed to develop and validate a prediction model for intra-abdominal septic complications after bowel resection and primary anastomosis for Crohn's disease. DESIGN This was a retrospective cohort study. SETTINGS This study was conducted in a tertiary center. PATIENTS Data of 949 Crohn's disease-related primary bowel resections and anastomosis from January 2011 to December 2017 were collected. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Primary outcomes were prevalence of intra-abdominal septic complications. RESULTS Overall prevalence of intra-abdominal septic complications after Crohn's disease surgery was 11.6%. Predictors included preoperative C-reactive protein level ≥40 mg/L (OR = 3.545), preoperative glucocorticoids (OR = 1.829) and infliximab use (OR = 3.365), upper GI involvement (OR = 2.072), and hypoalbuminemia (albumin level <30 g/L, OR = 2.406). Preoperative exclusive enteral nutrition was a protector for postoperative septic complications (OR = 0.192) compared with partial enteral nutrition/parenteral nutrition/straight to surgery. A nomogram was computed to facilitate risk calculation; this had a predictive discrimination, measured as area under the receiver operating characteristic curve, of 0.823. LIMITATIONS This model is generated from retrospective data. A major limitation of this model is the lack of external validation. CONCLUSIONS A new model to predict postoperative intra-abdominal septic complications was developed, which may guide preoperative optimization and candidate selection for primary anastomosis after bowel resection for Crohn's disease. See Video Abstract at http://links.lww.com/DCR/B178. NOMOGRAMA PARA PREDECIR COMPLICACIONES SéPTICAS INTRAABDOMINALES POSTOPERATORIAS DESPUéS DE RESECCIóN INTESTINAL Y ANASTOMOSIS PRIMARIA EN ENFERMEDAD DE CROHN: Las complicaciones sépticas intraabdominales postoperatorias en la enfermedad de Crohn aumentan sustancialmente los costos de atención médica y prolongan la hospitalización.Nuestro objetivo fue desarrollar y validar un modelo de predicción para las complicaciones sépticas intraabdominales después de resección intestinal y anastomosis primaria en enfermedad de Crohn.Este fue un estudio de cohorte retrospectivo.Este estudio se realizó en un centro de tercer nivel.Se recopilaron datos de 949 resecciones intestinales primarias con anastomosis por enfermedad de Crohn de enero de 2011 a diciembre de 2017.El resultado primario fue la prevalencia de complicaciones sépticas intraabdominales.La prevalencia general de complicaciones sépticas intraabdominales después de cirugía por enfermedad de Crohn fue 11.6%. Los predictores incluyeron un nivel preoperatorio de proteína C reactiva ≥ 40 mg / L (odds ratio = 3.545), glucocorticoides preoperatorios (odds ratio = 1.829) y uso de infliximab (odds ratio = 3.365), compromiso gastrointestinal superior (odds ratio = 2.072) e hipoalbuminemia (albúmina <30g / L, odds ratio = 2.406). La nutrición enteral exclusiva preoperatoria fue un protector para las complicaciones sépticas postoperatorias (odds ratio = 0.192, en comparación con la nutrición enteral parcial / nutrición parenteral / envío directo a cirugía. Se calculó un nomograma para facilitar el cálculo del riesgo; esto tuvo una discriminación predictiva, medida como área bajo la curva de la característica de operación del receptor, de 0.823.Este modelo se generó a partir de datos retrospectivos. Una limitación importante de este modelo es la falta de validación externa.Se desarrolló un nuevo modelo para predecir complicaciones sépticas intraabdominales postoperatorias, que puede guiar la optimización preoperatoria y la selección de candidatos para anastomosis primaria después de resección intestinal en enfermedad de Crohn.

Abstract
Tumor necrosis factor-alpha inhibitor (TNFi) treatment is effective for ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD). Although several meta-analyses have been performed to evaluate the association between TNFi treatment and surgical morbidity, the results are controversial. We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of the prevention of surgical site infection (SSI) after surgery for UC and CD in patients on TNFis, based on literature published between January 2000 and May 2019 (registered on PROSPERO, No. CRD42019134156). Overall, 2175 UC patients in 13 observational studies (OBSs) and 7084 CD patients in 16 OBSs were included. The incidences of incisional (INC) SSI and organ/space (O/S) SSI after surgery for UC were 179/1985 (9.0%) and 176/2175 (8.1%), respectively. TNFi use was not associated with the incidences of INC SSI (odds ratio (OR) 1.04, 95% confidence interval (CI) (0.47-2.32) or O/S SSI (OR 1.85, 95% CI (0.82-4.20)) after surgery for UC. The INC SSI and O/S SSI incidences after surgery for CD were 289/3089 (9.4%) and 526/7,084 (7.4%), respectively. Preoperative TNFi use was not associated with INC SSI (OR 0.98, 95% CI (0.52-1.83)) or O/S SSI incidence (OR 1.09, 95% CI (0.78-1.52)) after surgery for CD. We did not find a significant association between preoperative TNFi use and SSI in surgery for UC or CD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Ileocolectomy is the most common surgery performed for Crohn's disease, and postoperative complications occur frequently. There has been minimal evaluation of complications after ileocolectomy as a function of both clinical and genetic factors. OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to evaluate both genetic and clinical factors associated with complications after Crohn's ileocolectomy. DESIGN This was a retrospective clinical and genetic cohort study. SETTINGS This study was conducted at a high-volume tertiary care center. PATIENTS We identified 269 patients with Crohn's disease who had undergone 287 ileocolectomies at our institution between July 2008 and October 2018. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES We measured the association of complications with a combination of clinical factors and 6 Crohn's-associated single nucleotide polymorphisms in NOD2 (rs2076756, rs2066844, and rs2066845), IRGM (rs4958847 and rs13361189), and ATG16L1 (rs2241880). RESULTS There were 86 ileocolectomies of 287 (30%) with complications requiring intervention. The single nucleotide polymorphism rs13361189 in the gene IRGM was significantly associated with complications on univariate and multivariate analysis. There were 61 patients with a variant at the rs13361189 single nucleotide polymorphism and 26 of them had complications, although only 55 of the 208 wild-type patients had complications (43% vs 26%; OR = 2.1; p = 0.02). Other significant factors associated with complication after ileocolectomy were open surgery, placement of a proximal ileostomy, and a greater perioperative decrease in hematocrit. LIMITATIONS This study was limited by its retrospective design and inherent selection bias. CONCLUSIONS In addition to clinical risk factors, the rs13361189 single nucleotide polymorphism in the IRGM gene was independently associated with complications after ileocolectomy for Crohn's disease. The use of such genetic determinants may identify patients at increased risk for surgical complications after ileocolectomy. See Video Abstract at http://links.lww.com/DCR/B124. FACTORES CLÍNICOS Y GENÉTICOS ASOCIADOS CON COMPLICACIONES DESPUÉS DE LA ILEOCOLECTOMÍA DE CROHN: La ileocolectomía es la cirugía más común realizada para la enfermedad de Crohn y con frecuencia ocurren complicaciones postoperatorias. Ha habido una evaluación mínima de complicaciones después de la ileocolectomía, en función de factores clínicos y genéticos.Evaluar factores genéticos y clínicos asociados con complicaciones, después de la ileocolectomía por Crohn.Estudio retrospectivo de cohorte clínico y genético.Este estudio se realizó en un centro de atención terciaria de alto volumen.Identificamos a 269 pacientes con enfermedad de Crohn, sometidos a 287 ileocolectomías en nuestra institución, entre julio de 2008 y octubre de 2018.La asociación de complicaciones con una combinación de factores clínicos y seis polimorfismos de un solo nucleótido asociados a Crohn en NOD2 (rs2076756, rs2066844 y rs2066845), IRGM (rs4958847 y rs13361189) y ATG16L1 (rs2241880).Hubieron 86 ileocolectomías en 287 (30%) pacientes con complicaciones que requirieron intervención. El polimorfismo de un solo nucleótido rs13361189 en el gen IRGM se asoció significativamente con complicaciones en el análisis univariado y multivariado. Hubieron 61 pacientes con una variante en el polimorfismo de un solo nucleótido rs13361189 y 26 de ellos tuvieron complicaciones, mientras que solo 55 de los 208 pacientes de tipo salvaje (WT) tuvieron complicaciones (43% vs 26%, OR 2.1, p = 0.02). Otros factores significativos asociados con las complicaciones después de la ileocolectomía fueron, la cirugía abierta, la colocación de una ileostomía proximal y una mayor disminución perioperatoria del hematocrito.Este estudio estuvo limitado por su diseño retrospectivo y sesgo de selección inherente.Además de los factores de riesgo clínicos, el polimorfismo de un solo nucleótido rs13361189 en el gen IRGM se asoció independientemente con complicaciones después de la ileocolectomía, para la enfermedad de Crohn. El uso de tales determinantes genéticos puede identificar a los pacientes con mayor riesgo de complicaciones quirúrgicas, después de la ileocolectomía.

Abstract
This article is the second in a series of two publications relating to the European Crohn's and Colitis Organisation [ECCO] evidence-based consensus on the management of Crohn's disease. The first article covers medical management; the present article addresses surgical management, including preoperative aspects and drug management before surgery. It also provides technical advice for a variety of common clinical situations. Both articles together represent the evidence-based recommendations of the ECCO for Crohn's disease and an update of previous guidelines.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Approximately one-third of all patients suffering from Crohn's disease (CD) undergo surgery within the first 10 years after diagnosis and another 20% will have a second operation in the 10 years after their first operation. Surgery will remain an essential part of managing CD and therefore it is crucial to prevent perioperative complications by optimizing perioperative management. METHODS We reviewed the current literature on managing immunomodulating therapy, nutritional support, and thromboembolic prophylaxis in the perioperative situation. RESULTS CD patients with serious nutritional deficits (weight loss >10% in the last 3-6 months, body mass index <18.5 kg/m2, or albumin levels <30 g/L) benefit from intensive enteral or parenteral nutritional support, thereby reducing the risk of surgical-site infections and post-operative septic complications. Immunosuppressive therapy with prednisolone doses >20 mg should be avoided. The risk of therapy with anti-TNFα agents, vedolizumab, and ustekinumab for surgical complications has not been fully established. Analysis of currently available data suggests that an interval of 4-8 weeks is prudent to avoid complications and reduce risk by performing protective ostomy in the emergency setting. Finally, due to the high risk of venous thromboembolism, prophylactic therapy with heparin is recommended. CONCLUSION As most cases of CD-related surgery are performed in a non-emergency setting, careful planning and risk management can reduce the rate of surgical complications, increase quality of life, and also reduce costs.

Abstract
Treatment of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is often multidimensional, requiring both medical and surgical therapies at different times throughout the course of the disease. Both medical and surgical treatments may be used in the acute setting, during a flare, or in a more elective maintenance role. These treatments should be planned as complementary and synergistic. Gastroenterologists and colorectal surgeons should collaborate to create a cohesive treatment plan, arranging the sequence and timing of various treatments. This article reviews the anticipated postoperative recovery after surgical treatment of IBD, possible postoperative complications, and considerations of timing surgery with medical therapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The evidence regarding the association of preoperative biologic exposure and postoperative outcomes remains controversial for both antitumor necrosis factor agents and vedolizumab and largely unknown for ustekinumab. OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to determine differences in the rates of 30-day postoperative overall infectious complications and intra-abdominal septic complications among the 3 classes of biologic therapies as compared with no biologic therapy. DESIGN This was a retrospective review. SETTINGS The study was conducted at an IBD referral center. PATIENTS Adult patients with Crohn's disease who received an antitumor necrosis factor, vedolizumab, ustekinumab, or no biologic therapy within 12 weeks of a major abdominal operation between May 20, 2014, and December 31, 2017, were included. MAIN OUTCOMES MEASURES Thirty-day overall postoperative infectious complications and intra-abdominal septic complications were measured. RESULTS A total of 712 patients with Crohn's disease were included; 272 patients were exposed to an antitumor necrosis factor agents, 127 to vedolizumab, 38 to ustekinumab, and 275 to no biologic therapy within the 12 weeks before an abdominal operation. Patients exposed to a biologic were more likely to be taking a concurrent immunomodulator, but there was no difference in concurrent corticosteroid usage. The particular class of biologic was not independently associated with total overall infectious complications. Vedolizumab was associated with an increased rate of intra-abdominal sepsis on univariate analysis but not on multivariable analysis. Combination immunosuppression was associated with both an increased rate of overall postoperative infectious complications and intra-abdominal sepsis. LIMITATIONS The study was limited by its retrospective design and single-center data. CONCLUSIONS The overall rate of total infectious complications or intra-abdominal septic complications was not increased based on preoperative exposure to a particular class of biologic. Rates increased with combination immunosuppression of biologic therapy with corticosteroids and previous abdominal resection. See Video Abstract at http://links.lww.com/DCR/B24.

Los pacientes expuestos a un producto biológico tenían más probabilidades de tomar un inmunomodulador concurrente, pero no hubo diferencias en el uso simultáneo de corticosteroides. La clase particular de productos biológicos no se asoció de forma independiente con las complicaciones infecciosas totales. Vedolizumab se asoció con una mayor tasa de sepsis intraabdominal en el análisis univariable, pero no en el análisis multivariable. La inmunosupresión combinada se asoció tanto con una mayor tasa de complicaciones infecciosas postoperatorias generales como con sepsis intraabdominal.Diseño retrospectivo, datos de centro único.La tasa general de complicaciones infecciosas totales o complicaciones sépticas intraabdominales no aumentó en función de la exposición preoperatoria a una clase particular de productos biológicos. Las tasas aumentaron con la combinación de inmunosupresión de la terapia biológica con corticosteroides y resección abdominal previa. Vea el Resumen del Video en http://links.lww.com/DCR/B24.

Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate factors that influence postoperative in-hospital length of stay (LOS) in patients with Crohn's disease (CD) undergoing bowel surgery. Furthermore, the study aimed to evaluate LOS as a surrogate for postoperative outcome. METHODS This is a multicentre retrospective cohort study. Inclusion criteria were adult patients with CD who underwent bowel surgery with either anastomosis or stricturoplasty. All timings of surgeries were included regardless of the method of access to the abdominal cavities. Patients with stoma were excluded. Demographic data, preoperative medications, previous operations for CD, preoperative sepsis, and operation were recorded. Primary outcome was LOS while secondary outcome variable was postoperative complications. RESULTS A total of 449 patients who underwent abdominal surgery for CD were included. Of the 449 patients, 265 were female (59%). Median age was 37 years (IQR = 20), median LOS was 7 days (IQR = 6). Patients with longer LOS had higher rates of re-laparotomy/re-laparoscopy (45/228 (19.7%) versus 9/219 (4.1%) p = 0.01). In multivariate analysis, age (OR = 1.024 [CI 95% 1.007-1.041], p = 0.005), preoperative intra-abdominal abscess (OR = 0.39 [CI 95% 0.185-0.821], p = 0.013), and previous laparotomy/laparoscopy (OR = 0.57 [CI 95% 0.334-0.918], p = 0.021) were associated with prolonged LOS. LOS correlated with postoperative complications after adjustment for age, gender, previous laparotomy/laparoscopy, and preoperative intra-abdominal abscesses (OR = 1.28 [CI 95% 1.199-1.366], p < 0.0001). CONCLUSION Age, preoperative intra-abdominal abscess, and previous laparotomy/laparoscopy significantly prolonged LOS. LOS correlated with postoperative complications and can therefore be used in epidemiological or register-based studies as a surrogate for postoperative outcome.

Abstract
AbstractBackgroundThere is widespread concern that treatment with biologic agents may be associated with suboptimal postoperative outcome after surgery for inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD).AimWe aimed to search and analyze the literature regarding the potential association of biologic treatment on adverse postoperative outcome in patients with IBD. We used the subject as a case in point for surgical research. The aim was not to conduct a new systematic review.MethodThis is an updated narrative review written in a collaborative method by authors invited through Twitter via the following hashtags (#OpenSourceResearch and #SoMe4Surgery). The manuscript was presented as slides on Twitter to allow discussion of each section of the paper sequentially. A Google document was created, which was shared across social media, and comments and edits were verified by the primary author to ensure accuracy and consistency.ResultsForty-one collaborators responded to the invitation, and a total of 106 studies were identified that investigated the potential association of preoperative biological treatment on postoperative outcome in patients with IBD. Most of these studies were retrospective observational cohorts: 3 were prospective, 4 experimental, and 3 population-based studies. These studies were previously analyzed in 10 systematic/narrative reviews and 14 meta-analyses. Type of biologic agents, dose, drug concentration, antidrug antibodies, interval between last dose, and types of surgery varied widely among the studies. Adjustment for confounders and bias control ranged from good to very poor. Only 10 studies reported postoperative outcome according to Clavien–Dindo classification.ConclusionAlthough a large number of studies investigated the potential effect of biological treatment on postoperative outcomes, many reported divergent results. There is a need for randomized controlled trials. Future studies should focus on the avoiding the weakness of prior studies we identified. Seeking collaborators and sharing information via Twitter was integral to widening the contributors/authors and peer review for this article and was an effective method of collaboration.

Effects of preoperative anti-tumour necrosis factor alpha infusion timing on postoperative surgical site infection in inflammatory bowel disease: A systematic review and meta-analysis. United European Gastroenterol J 2019; 7:1198-1214. [PMID: 31700633 DOI: 10.1177/2050640619878998] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/25/2019] [Accepted: 09/03/2019] [Indexed: 12/15/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Anti-tumour necrosis factor alpha agents (anti-TNF-α) have been widely used in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). However, few published meta-analyses have focused on timing of the last infusion before surgery. We evaluated the relationship between preoperative anti-TNF-α timing and postoperative surgical site infection to provide additional evidence for surgeons to choose appropriate dates for surgery. Methods We searched from inception until January 2019 for studies that documented postoperative complications of adults with IBD who underwent preoperative anti-TNF-α treatment. Primary outcomes of included studies were the odds ratios of preoperative anti-TNF-α time frames (4, 8 and 12 weeks). In addition, surgical site infection and its subtypes (anastomotic leakage, abscesses and wound infection) were analysed. Results Twenty-seven publications were included. No significant difference between anti-TNF-α and control cohorts was observed for most postoperative surgical site infections (or its subtypes) when the preoperative anti-TNF-α infusion time window was within 4, 8 or 12 weeks. Additionally, no significant difference in postoperative complications was observed between preoperative anti-TNF-α windows of within four weeks and more than four weeks. Conclusions In terms of surgical site infection and its subtypes, anti-TNF-α may be safe for ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease patients who receive their last infusion of anti-TNF-α more than four weeks before surgery. We also found no evidence that anti-TNF-α was a risk factor when administered within four weeks, with the exception of subgroup results from a single study. Stratified by time window, use of anti-TNF-α until surgery has the potential to become a more considered strategy in clinical practice.

Abstract
Background: :
Biological therapy with anti-Tumour Necrosis Factor (TNF)-α agents
revolutionised the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease over the last decades. However,
there may be an increased risk of postoperative complications in Crohn’s disease (CD) patients
treated with anti-TNF-α agents prior to abdominal surgery.
Objective::
To evaluate the effects of preoperative anti-TNF-α therapy on the incidence of complications
after surgery.
Methods: :
A critical assessment of the results of clinical trial outcomes and meta-analyses on the
available data was conducted.
Results: :
Based on the outcomes of previous reports including meta-analyses, preoperative use of anti-
TNF-α agents modestly increased the risk of overall complications and particularly infectious
complications after abdominal surgery for CD. Nevertheless, previous studies have several limitations.
The majority of them were retrospective research with heterogeneous outcome measures and
single centre trials with relatively small sample size. In retrospective studies, the standard protocol
for assessing various types of postoperative complications was not used. The most serious limitation
of the previous studies was that multiple confounding factors such as malnutrition, use of
corticosteroids, and preoperative sepsis were not taken into consideration.
Conclusion::
Among patients treated with preoperative anti-TNF-α therapy, the risk of overall complications
and infectious complications may slightly increase after abdominal surgery for CD.
Nevertheless, the previous reports reviewed in this study suffered from limitations. To rigorously
evaluate the risk of anti-TNF-α therapy prior to surgery, large prospective studies with standardised
criteria for assessing surgical complications and with proper adjustment for confounding
variables are warranted.
