Abstract
Evisceration is an exceptional complication of diverting a stoma (a common procedure, often considered a minor surgery) with peculiar, specific, features (distinct-to-usual incisional evisceration), due to the presence of a stoma. Available data are limited to a few case reports; some aspects are not fully documented. The results of 28 case reports (full-text articles published in the English literature) were analyzed using 14 variables: age and gender; pathology; surgical setting; index surgery and type of stoma; intended stoma creation; time from surgery to evisceration; type of evisceration; visceral content; cause of evisceration; specific predisposing/risk factors; surgical approach; resection of nonviable content; surgical stoma treatment; and short-term outcome. Urgent surgery resulted in 46.42% resection of nonviable eviscerated content and 7.14% mortality. All issues (some not discussed in previous reviews) were analyzed, to highlight their clinical relevance for surgical practice. The mechanisms (types of evisceration) are different in parastomal and transstomal/intrastomal evisceration; they should be considered as distinct entities. The real (underlying) etiology was identified in 26/28 case reports (92.85%): surgical failure, such as inadequate technique/tactics/strategy (12/26 case reports, 46.15%); trauma (7/26 case reports, 26.92%); and spontaneous necrosis (6/26 case reports, 21.42%). Parastomal hernia and/or prolapse (10/28 case reports, 35.71%) were specific predisposing factors; in such cases, early surgical treatment is recommended. Temporary stoma was a potential risk factor, both for early as well as for late evisceration (e.g., long-standing temporary stoma); in such cases, early take-down or conversion to definitive stoma is beneficial. A local surgical approach (avoiding median laparotomy) was used in 13/28 (46.42%) of case reports. Seven different surgical options were used for surgical stoma treatment, demonstrating versatility; the initial stoma site was preserved in 22/28 (78.57%) of case reports.

World J Gastrointest Surg 2024; 16:807-815. [PMID: 38577084 PMCID: PMC10989347 DOI: 10.4240/wjgs.v16.i3.807] [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: 10/24/2023] [Revised: 01/13/2024] [Accepted: 02/07/2024] [Indexed: 03/22/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Ostomy is a common surgery usually performed to protect patients from clinical symptoms caused by distal anastomotic leakage after colorectal cancer (CRC) surgery and perforation or to relieve intestinal obstruction. AIM To analyze the complications after transverse colostomy closure. METHODS Patients who underwent transverse colostomy closure from Jan 2015 to Jan 2022 were retrospectively enrolled in a single clinical center. The differences between the complication group and the no complication group were compared. Logistic regression analyses were conducted to find independent factors for overall complications or incision infection. RESULTS A total of 102 patients who underwent transverse colostomy closure were enrolled in the current study. Seventy (68.6%) patients underwent transverse colostomy because of CRC related causes. Postoperative complications occurred in 30 (29.4%) patients and the most frequent complication occurring after transverse colostomy closure was incision infection (46.7%). The complication group had longer hospital stays (P < 0.01). However, no potential risk factors were identified for overall complications and incision infection. CONCLUSION The most frequent complication occurring after transverse colostomy closure surgery in our center was incision infection. The operation time, interval from transverse colostomy to reversal, and method of anastomosis might have no impact on the postoperative complications. Surgeons should pay more attention to aseptic techniques.

[PMID: 37797389 DOI: 10.1016/j.jss.2023.09.014] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/13/2023] [Revised: 09/05/2023] [Accepted: 09/07/2023] [Indexed: 10/07/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION In many resource-limited settings, patients with Hirschsprung's Disease (HD) undergo initial diverting colostomy, followed by pull-through, and finally, colostomy closure. This approach allows for decompression of dilated and thickened bowel and improved patient nutritional status. However, this three-stage approach prolongs treatment duration, with significant stoma morbidity, costs, and impact on quality of life. Our aim was to determine whether pull-through for HD can safely be performed with simultaneous stoma closure, reducing treatment approach from three to two stages. METHODS Children with HD and diverting colostomy were prospectively followed as they underwent pull-through with simultaneous stoma closure. Their in-hospital course and 3-mo outpatient course were assessed for postoperative complications. Patients with total colonic HD, redo pull-through, and residual dilated colon were excluded from the study. RESULTS Of the 20 children, 17 were male (n = 17, 85%). All patients had rectosigmoid HD. The median weight, age at colostomy formation, and age at pull-through were 11.05 kg (interquartile range [IQR] 10-12.75), 0.9 y (IQR 0.25-2.8), and 2.08 y (IQR 1.28-2.75), respectively. Mean duration with colostomy before pull-through was 1.1 y (standard deviation 1.51). Median hospital length of stay was 6 d (IQR 5-7). Early complications included anastomotic leak (n = 1), perianal skin excoriation (n = 2), surgical site skin infection (n = 3), and fascial dehiscence (n = 1). Longer-term complications included stricture (n = 1, 5%) and enterocolitis (n = 2, 10%). CONCLUSIONS In this small case series, we have demonstrated that pull-through with simultaneous stoma closure can be safely performed in resource-constrained settings. Further studies are needed to understand the quality of life and economic impact of this change in management for HD patients.

Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to compare the short-term outcomes between laparoscopic Hartmann reversal (LHR) and open Hartmann reversal (OHR) in patients who had undergone Hartmann surgery for colorectal cancer (CRC). METHODS The patients who underwent Hartmann reversal (HR) at the First Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University from Jun 2013 to Jun 2022 were retrospectively enrolled. The LHR group and the OHR group were compared using propensity score matching (PSM) analysis. RESULTS A total of 89 patients who underwent Hartmann reversal (HR) were enrolled in this study. There were 48 (53.9%) patients in the LHR group and 41 (46.1%) patients in the OHR group. After 1:1 ratio PSM, no difference in baseline information remained (p > 0.05). There was no significant difference in operation time, blood loss, postoperative hospital stay, and postoperative complications (p > 0.05) before and after PSM. In the multivariable logistic regression analysis, pre-operative albumin < 42.0 g/L was an independent risk factor (p = 0.013 < 0.05, OR = 0.248, 95% CI = 0.083-0.741) for the HR-related complications; however, LHR/OHR was not a predictive risk factor (p = 0.663, OR = 1.250, 95% CI = 0.500-3.122). CONCLUSION Based on the current evidence, although there was no difference in short-term prognosis, LHR still had some advantages considering that it was less invasive to the patient.

Abstract
Aim This paper investigates the risk factors preventing the reversal and nonreversal of Hartmann's procedure, as a surgical technique that has been performed in our clinic for ten years. Methods The study involved a ten-year Hartmann's procedure followed up at our center. The patients were divided into Hartmann reversal and nonreversal groups. Groups were examined in terms of age, gender, diagnosis, stage of malignancy, ASA score, comorbidity, perioperative morbidity-mortality, and the length of the operation. Results Age (p < 0.001), ASA score (p < 0.001), stage in case of malignancy (p = 0.002), and comorbidities (p < 0.001) were significant risk factors. The ratio of patients without any comorbidities to those with one or more comorbidities was 2.63 (95% CI 1.12–6.20). Among the malignant patients, the ratio of early-stage patients to advanced-stage patients in the group with reversal of Hartmann's colostomy was 2.82 (95% CI 1.30–6.10). In addition, the ratio of older patients to younger patients in group 2 was 0.95 (95% CI 0.92–0.98). A univariate analysis revealed that younger patients, those with lower ASA scores, those without comorbidities, and those with early-stage malignancy had a greater chance of closure of the stoma. Conclusion Although Hartmann's procedure is performed in emergency surgery, the nonreversal of the colostomy is a problem in itself. It should be kept in mind that patients who have high risks are likely to have a permanent stoma.

Abstract
Introducción: los estomas intestinales representan un impacto significativo en la calidad de vida de las personas; sin embargo, estos deben revertirse después de haberse restituido el tránsito intestinal o la resolución del proceso inflamatorio inicial. Por otro lado, la negación de la persona para su reversión puede deberse a la falta de información y orientación por parte de los profesionales de la salud. Por lo anterior es importante identificar las intervenciones de Enfermería en la atención de la persona con reversión del estoma intestinal. Materiales y métodos: se realizó una revisión integrativa de la literatura de alcance descriptivo en el período comprendido entre los años 2015 a 2020, a través de las bases de datos Wos, Pubmed, Scopus, Scielo y Cochrane. Se seleccionaron 36 artículos que cumplieron con los criterios de inclusión y exclusión con el respectivo análisis metodológico. Resultados: Se identificaron las siguientes intervenciones de Enfermería, para el preoperatorio: valoración preoperatoria, preparación intestinal y seguimiento a comorbilidades. El intraoperatorio: profilaxis, preparación de la piel, técnica quirúrgica y cierre de la pared abdominal. En el posoperatorio: cuidado de la herida quirúrgica, calidad de vida y educación. Discusión: es importante la reflexión sobre el tiempo de reversión, la técnica quirúrgica y la importancia de las intervenciones por Enfermería. Conclusión: Enfermería cumple un papel importante en la reversión del estoma, no solo por los cuidados físicos y la educación que se brinda, sino también en las intervenciones aplicables al contexto social y emocional que afectan el estilo de vida de la persona.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Guidelines for enhanced recovery after surgery have their bases in colonic surgery, through the first protocols published in 2012. Since then, this practice has spread throughout the world, mainly due to improvements in surgical outcomes associated with resource savings. AIM To analyze the first prospective results after the implementation of the guidelines. METHODS Were retrospectively analyzed 48 patients operated in the institution prior to the standardization. This group was then compared with a series of 25 patients operated consecutively after the guidelines were implemented. RESULTS With a 68.6% compliance rate, hospital length of stay (p=0.002), use of abdominal drains (p<0.001) and mechanical bowel preparation (p<0.001) were reduced. Mortality rates, anastomotic fistula, abdominal abscesses and reoperations were also reduced, but without statistical significance. CONCLUSION Enhanced recovery after surgery protocols benefit patients care, resulting in better outcomes and possibly resource savings. Even with some limitations, its implementation is feasible in the Brazilian Public Health System.
