Prognostic Impact of Mesenteric Lymph Node Status on Digestive Resection Specimens During Cytoreductive Surgery for Ovarian Peritoneal Metastases. Ann Surg Oncol 2024; 31:605-613. [PMID: 37865938 PMCID: PMC10695887 DOI: 10.1245/s10434-023-14405-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/05/2023] [Accepted: 09/17/2023] [Indexed: 10/24/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The most common mode of ovarian cancer (OC) spread is intraperitoneal dissemination, with the peritoneum as the primary site of metastasis. Cytoreductive surgery (CRS) with chemotherapy is the primary treatment. When necessary, a digestive resection can be performed, but the role of mesenteric lymph nodes (MLNs) in advanced OC remains unclear, and its significance in treatment and follow-up evaluation remains to be determined. This study aimed to evaluate the prevalence of MLN involvement in patients who underwent digestive resection for OC peritoneal metastases (PM) and to investigate its potential prognostic value. METHODS This retrospective, descriptive study included patients who underwent CRS with curative intent for OC with PM between 1 January 2007 and 31 December 2020. The study assessed MLN status and other clinicopathologic features to determine their prognostic value in relation to overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS). RESULTS The study enrolled 159 women with advanced OC, 77 (48.4%) of whom had a digestive resection. For 61.1% of the patients who underwent digestive resection, MLNs were examined and found to be positive in 56.8%. No statistically significant associations were found between MLN status and OS (p = 0.497) or PFS ((p = 0.659). CONCLUSIONS In anatomopathologic studies, MLNs are not systematically investigated but are frequently involved. In the current study, no statistically significant associations were found between MLN status and OS or PFS. Further prospective studies with a systematic and standardized approach should be performed to confirm these findings.

Karadayi K, Karabacak U. Is complete mesocolic excision or total mesorectal excision necessary during cytoreductive surgery in ovarian peritoneal carcinomatosis with colonic involvement? Acta Chir Belg 2023; 123:124-131.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and intraperitoneal chemotherapy are effective in the treatment of ovarian peritoneal carcinomatosis (OPC). Colon resection is often required to achieve maximal cytoreduction during CRS. The success of complete mesocolic excision (CME) and total mesorectal excision (TME) in the surgical treatment of primary colorectal tumors is well-known. Our study aimed to investigate the factors affecting mesocolic lymph node metastasis (MLNM) and the contribution of CME/TME techniques to maximal cytoreduction in patients diagnosed with ovarian peritoneal carcinomatosis (OPC) with colon metastasis. PATIENTS AND METHODS Between 2004-2020, 30 patients who underwent colorectal resection with CME/TME techniques due to OPC-related colon metastasis were retrospectively analyzed. RESULTS The median age of patients was 61 (33-86). Six (20%) patients underwent total colectomy, 7 (23%) subtotal colectomy, 6 (20%) right hemicolectomy, 4 (13%) left hemicolectomy, and 7 (23%) rectosigmoid resection. Histopathological diagnosis was high-grade serous carcinoma in 29 (97%) patients, and malignant mixed Mullerian tumor in 1 (3%) patient. MLNM was detected in 17 (56%) of 30 patients. There was a significant relationship between MLNM and pelvic and para-aortic lymph node metastasis (PALNM) (p = 0.009) and lymphovascular invasion in primary ovarian tumors (p = 0.017). There was no significant relationship between MLNM and depth of colonic invasion (p = 0.463), histological grade (p = 0.711), and primary/secondary surgery (p = 0.638). MLNM was seen in 8 (47%) of 17 patients with only serosal invasion. CONCLUSION A high rate of MLNM can be seen in OPC-induced colon metastasis regardless of the degree of colon wall invasion. In patients with PALNM, the frequency of MLNM increases. We believe that if colon resection is to be performed in OPC, a colectomy should be performed by CME/TME principles to achieve maximal cytoreduction.

Parenchymal liver metastasis in advanced ovarian cancer: Can bowel involvement influence the frequency and the related mortality rate? Eur J Obstet Gynecol Reprod Biol 2023; 280:48-53. [PMID: 36399920 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejogrb.2022.11.008] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/09/2022] [Revised: 11/02/2022] [Accepted: 11/08/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE This retrospective study estimates the frequency of parenchymal liver metastasis (PLM) and the overall survival (OS) rate of patients with FIGO Stage IIIC-IV Advanced Epithelial Ovarian Cancer (EOC) with bowel involvement. STUDY DESIGN Between November 2008 and July 2020, all consecutive patients with FIGO Stage IIIC-IV EOC who underwent Visceral Peritoneal Debulking and bowel resection(s) at the Gynaecological Oncology Unit of "Centro di Riferimento Oncologico (CRO)", Aviano, Italy, without evidence of PLM at pre-operative imaging assessment, were included in the study. The presence and the time of the onset of PLM during the follow-up period were detected by diagnostic imaging (CT-scan, Ultrasound and PET). The OS of patients with and without PLM was compared. Considering the bowel's layers, the association between depth of bowel involvement, number of PLM, and the relative OS rate was evaluated. RESULTS The median follow-up period was 47.3 (12-138) months. PLM occurred in 24/72 (33.0%) cases; the average onset time of PLM was 13 months. PLM was associated with increased significant mortality risk and an average OS of 33.2 versus 56.8 months (p < 0.001). The risk of developing PLM correlated directly with the depth of bowel involvement. However, there was no statistical difference between the layers in terms of OS at the end of the observational period. CONCLUSIONS PLM occurred more frequently among patients with EOC and bowel involvement. The PLM arose within 15 months of follow-up and the frequency increased according to the depth of involvement. Particularly, the difference is remarkably higher starting from muscular layer where the total number of PLM arose significantly (p = 0.02). Although there was no significant difference among the infiltrated bowel layers in terms of OS, patients with bowel involvement up to muscular had a dramatic reduction in the OS rate during the first 30 months of follow-up.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mesenteric lymph node (MLN) involvement is often observed in ovarian cancer (OC) with rectosigmoid invasion. This study aimed to investigate the clinical significance of MLN involvement in the pattern of liver metastasis in patients with OC. METHODS We included 85 stage II-IV OC patients who underwent primary or interval debulking surgery. Twenty-seven patients underwent rectosigmoid resection, whose status of MLN involvement was judged from hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining of resected specimens. The prognostic significance of clinicopathological characteristics, including MLN involvement, was evaluated using univariate and multivariate analyses. RESULTS MLN involvement was detected in 14/85 patients with stage II-IV OC. Residual tumor status, cytology of ascites, and MLN involvement were independent prognostic factors for progression-free survival (PFS; p = 0.033, p = 0.014, and p = 0.008, respectively). When patients were classified into three groups (no MLN, one MLN, two or more MLNs), the number of MLNs involved corresponded to three distinct groups in PFS (p = 0.001). The 3-year cumulative incidence of liver metastasis of patients with MLN involvement was significantly higher than that of patients without MLN involvement (61.1% vs. 8.9%, p < 0.001). MLN involvement was significantly associated with liver metastasis of hematogenous origin (p < 0.001) compared with peritoneal disseminated origin. CONCLUSION MLN involvement is an important prognostic factor in OC, predicting poor prognosis and liver metastasis of hematogenous origin.

Abstract
In March 2019, Harter et al. published the results of the LION study (Lymphadenectomy in patients with advanced ovarian neoplasms) which raises the question of pelvic and para-aortic lymphadenectomy for patients with advanced-stage epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC). These results influenced the new French recommendations published in December 2018 by the French National Cancer Institute (INCa). Thus, it no longer seems consistent to perform a systematic lymphadenectomy for patients for whom there is no argument for nodal involvement, when a macroscopic complete peritoneal cytoreductive surgery has been performed. The question of preoperative lymph node assessment is therefore essential, whereas more than half of the patients in the LION study had metastatic lymph node involvement that was histologically proven. For the assessment of lymph node status by imaging, superior sensitivity for Positron Emission Tomography is demonstrated in comparison with CT-scan or Magnetic Resonance Imaging. Nevertheless, thoraco-abdomino-pelvic CT-scan with contrast injection remains the gold standard for this indication. In the absence of suspected involvement, supra-renal, mesenteric, coelio-hepatic, and cardio-phrenic lymphadenectomy are not recommended. Lymphadenectomies should always be performed in the other situations of EOC management apart from the rare case of stage 1 expansile subtype mucinous carcinoma. The aim of this review is to discuss lymphadenectomy indications for the surgical management of EOC by taking into account new data from the scientific literature.

Abstract
Debulking surgery is the key step of advanced stage ovarian cancer treatment with chemotherapy. The quality of surgical resection is the main prognosis factor, thus a complete resection must be achieved (grade A) in an expert center (grade B). Surgery for stage IV is possible and has a benefit in case of complete peritoneal resection (LoE3). Pelvic and aortic lymphadenectomies are recommended in case of clinical or radiological suspicious lymph nodes (grade B). In absence of clinical or radiological suspicious lymph nodes and in case of complete peritoneal resection during initial debulking surgery, lymphadenectomy can be omitted because it won't change nor medical treatment nor overall survival (grade B). Neoadjuvant chemotherapy can be proposed in case of: impossibility to perform initial complete surgical resection (grade B) ; alteration of general state or co-morbidities or elderly patient (in order to decrease morbidity and increase quality of life) (grade B); stage IV with multiple intra-hepatic or pulmonary metastasis or important ascites with miliary (grade B). In case of stage III or IV ovarian cancer diagnosed on a biopsy during prior laparotomy, a neoadjuvant chemotherapy and interval debulking surgery should be preferred (gradeC). In case of palliative surgery or peroperative impossibility to perform a complete resection, no data regarding the type of surgery to perform influencing survival or quality of life is available. Peritoneal carcinosis description before resection and residual disease at the end of the surgery should be reported (size, location and reason of non-extirpability) (grade B). A score of peritoneal carcinosis such as Peritoneal Carcinosis Index (PCI) should be used in order to objectively evaluate the tumoral burden (gradeC). A standardized operative report is recommended (gradeC).

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Completeness of cytoreduction is the most important prognostic factor in patients with advanced ovarian cancer (OC). Extensive upper abdominal surgery has allowed to increase the rate complete cytoreduction and the feasibility of resection of celiac lymph nodes (CLN) and porta hepatis disease in these patients has been demonstrated. The aim of our study was to assess the prognostic impact of CLN involvement in patients with primary advanced OC undergoing a complete cytoreductive surgery (CRS). MATERIAL AND METHODS We designed a retrospective unicentric study. We reviewed data from patients who underwent CLN resection with or without porta hepatis disease resection, within upfront or interval complete CRS in the frontline treatment of advanced epithelial OC between January 2008 and December 2015. Patients were classified in two groups according to CLN status. Univariate and multivariate analyses were conducted. Survival rates were estimated using Kaplan-Meier method. RESULTS Forty-three patients were included and positive CLN were found in 39.5% of them. The median disease-free survival in the group of patients with positive and negative CLN were 11.3 months and 25.8 months, respectively. In multivariable analysis, both CLN involvement and high peritoneal cancer index were independently associated with decreased disease-free survival. Computed tomography re-reading by an expert radiologist has good sensitivity for detection of positive CLN. CONCLUSION CLN involvement and high preoperative tumor burden are independently associated with decreased survival after complete cytoreduction for OC. CLN involvement is a marker of diffuse disease and an independent risk factor for early recurrent disease.

Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of this retrospective study is to analyze the prognostic role and the practical implication of mesenteric lymph nodes (MLN) involvements in advanced ovarian cancer (AOC). METHODS A total of 429 patients with AOC underwent surgery between December 2007 and May 2017. We included in the study 83 patients who had primary (PDS) or interval debulking surgery (IDS) for AOC with bowel resection. Numbers, characteristics and surgical implication of MLN involvement were considered. RESULTS Eighty-three patients were submitted to bowel resection during cytoreduction for AOC. Sixty-seven patients (80.7%) underwent primary debulking surgery (PDS). Sixteen patients (19.3%) experienced interval debulking surgery (IDS). 43 cases (51.8%) showed MLN involvement. A statistic correlation between positive MLN and pelvic lymph nodes (PLN) (p = 0.084), aortic lymph nodes (ALN) (p = 0.008) and bowel infiltration deeper than serosa (p = 0.043) was found. A longer overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival was observed in case of negative MLN in the first 20 months of follow-up. No statistical differences between positive and negative MLN in terms of operative complication, morbidity, Ca-125, type of surgery (radical vs supra-radical), length and site of bowel resection, residual disease and site of recurrence were observed. CONCLUSIONS An important correlation between positive MLN, ALN and PLN was detected; these results suggest a lymphatic spread of epithelial AOC similar to that of primary bowel cancer. The absence of residual disease after surgery is an independent prognostic factor; to achieve this result should be recommended a radical bowel resection during debulking surgery for AOC with bowel involvement.

Pelvic exenteration with rectal resection for different types of malignancies at two tertiary referral centres. Cir Esp 2017; 96:138-148. [PMID: 29229359 DOI: 10.1016/j.ciresp.2017.11.001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/20/2017] [Revised: 09/28/2017] [Accepted: 11/04/2017] [Indexed: 02/08/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Pelvic exenteration (PE) offers the best chance of cure for locally advanced primary or recurrent pelvic organ malignancies invading adjacent organs. The aims of this study were to analyse results for any pelvic exenteration that includes rectal resection and the analysis of results of fecal and urinary reconstruction. METHOD From January 2000 to April 2014, 111 PE with rectal resection for any pelvic cancer were analysed retrospectively at two national tertiary referral centers. RESULTS Thirty-six colorectal anastomosis were performed. Urologic reconstructions performed were 30 double barrelled wet colostomy (DBWC), 14 Bricker ileal conduit (BIC), and 2 ureterocutaneostomies. Postoperative complications occurred in 71 patients (64%). Six deaths (5.4%) occurred within 30 postoperative days. Five-year overall survival following R0 resection was 62.6%; R1: 42.7%; R2: 24.2% (P=.018). The resection margin status was associated with overall survival, local recurrence and distant recurrence. CONCLUSION Pelvic exenterations for any cause need to be performed in referral centers and by specialized surgeons. Anastomosis after modified supralevator pelvic exenteration for ovarian cancer, is safe. DBWC can be considered a valid option for urologic reconstruction. The most important prognostic factor after pelvic exenteration for malignant pelvic tumors is the status of surgical margins.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We investigated the necessity of preoperative bowel preparation for gynecological oncology surgery. MATERIALS AND METHODS We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of patients who underwent gynecological oncology surgery with simultaneous colon or rectal resection between April 2005 and September 2014 at the Tri-Service General Hospital, Taipei, Taiwan. Patients were divided into two groups based on whether preoperative mechanical bowel preparation (MBP) was performed. Patient characteristics, including duration of antibiotic treatment, surgical procedures, and occurrence of surgical and nonsurgical complications, were compared. RESULTS We enrolled 124 patients who underwent gynecological oncology surgery with simultaneous colon or rectal resection, of whom 76 received MBP and 48 did not receive mechanical bowel preparation. On comparison between the two groups, no significant differences were noted in the assessed patient characteristics, including mean age (p = 0.61), Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics stage (p = 0.9), American Society of Anesthesiologists grade (p = 0.9), body mass index (p = 0.8), and residual tumor size (p = 0.86). Furthermore, duration of antibiotic treatment (p = 0.97), surgical procedures (p = 0.99), and total hospital days (p = 0.75), were not different between groups. The risk of surgical (p = 0.78) or nonsurgical (p = 1.0) complications was not significantly higher in the non-MBP group than in the MBP group. CONCLUSION MBP provides no significant benefit during gynecological oncology surgery. Thus, preoperative MBP is not essential before gynecological oncology surgery and can be omitted.

Abstract
Although uncommon, ovarian cancer cells may spread to the rectal lymph nodes. However, few reports have described how to detect and treat such metastases. We report a case of a 59-year-old woman with mesorectal and pararectal lymph node metastases in recurrent ovarian carcinoma, detected conclusively using 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT), and treated by low anterior resection with total mesorectal excision aiming for macroscopic complete resection. The treatment goals for the patient were gradually changed from curative to palliative chemotherapy; she survived for 45 months without rectal obstruction after secondary debulking surgery, and was followed up until autopsy. Thus, 18F-FDG PET/CT may be valuable for detecting rectal lymph node metastasis and can play an essential role in planning treatment for recurrent ovarian carcinoma.

Abstract
AIM To evaluate the outcomes and patterns of patients with secondary relapsed ovarian cancer. METHODS A retrospective study was conducted. The cases comprised 83 patients who underwent tertiary cytoreductive surgery (TCS) followed by chemotherapy, whereas the controls consisted of 76 patients who received chemotherapy alone. RESULTS The median survival was 20 months in 159 patients. Patients with microscopic residual disease after TCS had a median survival of 32.9 months compared with 14.6 months in those with macroscopic residual disease [hazard ratio (HR), 2.82; P = 0.001) and 15.0 months in patients with chemotherapy alone (HR, 2.23; P = 0.001). When stratified by a progression-free interval (PFI) after secondary cytoreduction (SCR), TCS showed no benefit in patients with a PFI ≤12 months or a PFI >12 months compared with those with chemotherapy alone. TCS improved survival in patients with recurrent disease in the pelvis compared with those with recurrent disease in the middle or upper abdomen, with a median survival of 34.9 months and 14.6 months, respectively (HR, 2.94; P = 0.010). However, TCS was not a survival determinant by multivariate analysis. A multivariate analysis identified a PFI after SCR (≤12 mos vs. >12 mos; HR, 2.34; 95% CI, 1.29-4.24; P = 0.005), mesenteric lymph node metastasis at SCR (yes vs. no; HR, 4.18; 95% CI, 1.93-9.03; P < 0.001) and treatment arms at secondary relapse (chemotherapy alone vs. TCS; HR, 1.56; 95% CI, 1.03-2.38; P = 0.037) as independent predictors of survival. CONCLUSIONS Limited survival benefit from tertiary cytoreductive surgery was observed in patients with platinum-sensitive secondary relapsed ovarian cancer.

Depth of colorectal-wall invasion and lymph-node involvement as major outcome factors influencing surgical strategy in patients with advanced and recurrent ovarian cancer with diffuse peritoneal metastases. World J Surg Oncol 2013; 11:64. [PMID: 23497091 PMCID: PMC3600023 DOI: 10.1186/1477-7819-11-64] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/03/2012] [Accepted: 02/16/2013] [Indexed: 01/27/2023] Open
Abstract
Background More information is needed on the anatomopathological outcome variables indicating the appropriate surgical strategy for the colorectal resections often needed during cytoreduction for ovarian cancer. Methods From a phase-II study cohort including 70 patients with primary advanced or recurrent ovarian cancer with diffuse peritoneal metastases treated from November 2000 to April 2009, we selected for this study the 52 consecutive patients who needed colorectal resection. Data collected included type of colorectal resection, peritoneal cancer index (PCI), histopathology (depth of bowel-wall invasion and lymph-node spread), cytoreduction rate and outcome. Correlations were tested between possible prognostic factors and Kaplan-Meier five-year overall and disease-free survival. A Cox multivariate regression model was used to identify independent variables associated with outcome. Results In the 52 patients, the optimal cytoreduction rate was 86.5% (CC0/1). In all patients, implants infiltrated deeply into the bowel wall, in 75% of the cases up to the muscular and mucosal layer. Lymph-node metastases were detected in 50% of the cases; mesenteric nodes were involved in 42.3%. Most patients (52%) had an uneventful postoperative course. Operative mortality was 3.8%. The five-year survival rate was 49.9% and five-year disease-free survival was 36.7%. Cox regression analysis identified as the main prognostic factors completeness of cytoreduction and depth of bowel wall invasion. Conclusions Our findings suggest that the major independent prognostic factors in patients with advanced ovarian cancer needing colorectal resections are completeness of cytoreduction and depth of bowel wall invasion. Surgical management and pathological assessment should be aware of and deal with dual locoregional and mesenteric lymphatic spread.

A surgeon's help with the management of bowel problems related to gynecology is truly needed - comparison of two periods spanning 24 years. Taiwan J Obstet Gynecol 2013; 51:612-5.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Colorectal surgeons are frequently on call to provide help to gynecologists who are managing bowel problems that occur either during or following gynecological surgery. This is a retrospective analysis of a single surgeon's experiences associated with such instances. The analysis focuses on whether there have been any changes in referral patterns, surgical techniques and/or results. MATERIALS AND METHODS From July 1984 to June 2008, 282 patients were operated on by a single colorectal surgeon, for problems that were related to gynecology. These consisted of 137 patients operated on during the first 12-year period, from July 1984 to June 1996. During this first period, 85 patients were operated on for cervical cancer related problems, 39 patients were operated on for problems related to other gynecological malignancies and nine patients were operated on for iatrogenic bowel injury during surgery. During the second 12-year period, from July 1996 to June 2008, 145 patients were operated on. Of these, 85 patients were operated on for cervical cancer related problems, 44 patients were operated on for problems related to other gynecological malignancies and eight patients were operated on for iatrogenic bowel injury during surgery. RESULTS During the first 12-year period, six operations were pelvic exenterations for primary gynecological malignancies or recurrences. One hundred and one patients received stomas during their first operation. Twenty-five patients encountered various complications. Postoperative death occurred in five patients. During the second 12-year period, 12 operations were pelvic exenterations for primary gynecological malignancies or recurrences. Eighty-seven patients received stomas during their first operation. Thirty-seven patients encountered various complications. Postoperative death occurred in six patients. CONCLUSION Gynecological problems frequently involve the colon or rectum. Cervical cancer related problems remain the most common type necessitating help from a colorectal surgeon. In spite of advances in surgical management, stomas are still frequently unavoidable in order to cure a patient or improve the patient's quality of life. Appropriate management of problems by a colorectal surgeon in relation to gynecology is important and in the best interests of the patient.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Bowel obstruction in gynaecological malignancies continues to present clinical challenges and a multidisciplinary approach to discuss management is crucial. Surgery, usually with palliative intent, is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. There is an absence of level 1 evidence and national guidelines, and only limited quality-of-life data. RECENT FINDINGS Acute bowel obstruction in gynaecological cancer patients is rare and surgery is associated with a higher morbidity and mortality rate. Less commonly, emergency bowel obstruction cases will have had radiotherapy or recent chemotherapy, which also increases surgical morbidity and mortality. However, most often, bowel obstruction in irradiated gynaecological cancer patients is not due to cancer. Ovarian cancer is the most common malignancy. Caution is needed in those EOC patients with ascites, short treatment-free interval, acute abdomen and chemoresistance. Comorbidities are frequent. The decision for surgery should be made on an individual basis. Palliative care input is important early in patient management as for most patients the surgical goal is palliation and not cure. There is still a paucity of published data on quality-of-life assessments. SUMMARY There is a need to identify those patients who may benefit from palliative surgical intervention and those who will not. Ideally, agreed national guidelines should be produced and regularly reviewed.

Abstract
Objective:To study risk factors for low colorectal anastomotic leak after pelvic exenteration for gynecologic malignancies.Methods:Data from 60 patients, 32 with ovarian cancer and 28 with nonovarian cancer who underwent pelvic exenteration with colorectal anastomosis (CRA) were retrospectively analyzed.Results:Overall rate of CRA leak was 20%. The CRA leak was associated with type of tumor (3% for the ovarian cancer and 40.8% for the nonovarian cancer,P= 0.004), CRA height (<5 cm vs ≥5 cm, 75% vs 6.3%;P= 0.001), and previous radiotherapy (RT; 53.3% vs 8.9%;P= 0.001). Multivariate analysis showed that only previous RT and CRA height were associated with the CRA leak. Rectosigmoid wall involvement (81.8% vs 27%;P= 0.001) and mesorectum infiltration (69.2% vs 21.7%;P= 0.001) were more frequent among patients with ovarian cancer patients.Conclusion:Previous RT and CRA at or less than 5 cm from the anal verge pose a high risk for CRA leak. In these cases, a definitive colostomy should be recommended.

Transverse colectomy in ovarian cancer surgical cytoreduction: operative technique and clinical outcome. Gynecol Oncol 2008; 109:364-9.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To describe the operative techniques and associated clinical outcomes of patients undergoing transverse colectomy as a component of cytoreductive surgery for advanced or recurrent ovarian cancer. METHODS Thirty-nine patients underwent transverse colectomy as part of primary (n=33) or secondary (n=6) cytoreductive surgery for ovarian cancer between 1/97 and 4/07. The surgical techniques, associated morbidity, and clinical outcomes are described. RESULTS Among primary surgery patients, 75.6% had Stage IIIC disease, and 24.2% had Stage IV disease. Transverse colon surgery consisted of: partial colectomy in 33 cases and total transverse colectomy in 6 cases. Transverse colectomy with rectosigmoid colectomy was performed in 61.5% of patients, with two separate colonic anastomoses in 48.7%. The majority (89.7%) of transverse colon anastomoses were stapled, most commonly a functional end-to-end colocolostomy. Two patients required end colostomy. The median EBL was 500 cm(3). Residual disease was: no gross in 33.3%, 0.1-1.0 cm in 59.0%, and >1 cm in 7.7% of patients. Post-operative morbidity occurred in 25.6% of patients, with a fistula rate of 5.1% and a mortality rate of 2.6%. The median survival time after primary surgery was 68.3 months. CONCLUSIONS Transverse colectomy can contribute significantly to a maximal ovarian cancer cytoreductive surgical effort and carries acceptable morbidity. Resection of a non-contiguous segment of rectosigmoid colon is frequently necessary, and placement of two separate colonic anastomoses is associated with a low risk of anastomotic breakdown.
