Abstract
OBJECTIVE To screen for aberrantly expressed genes in osteosarcoma cells and investigate the role of RHPN2 in regulating the proliferation, apoptosis, migration and tumorigenic abilities of osteosarcoma cells. METHODS We used GEO2R to analyze the differential gene expression profile between osteosarcoma cells and normal cells in the GSE70414 dataset. RTqPCR and Western blotting were performed to detect RHPN2 expression in osteosarcoma cell lines MG-63, 143B and SAOS2. Two RHPN2-shRNA and a control NC-shRNA were designed to silence the expression of RHPN2 in 143B cells, and CCK8 assay, colony-forming assay, annexin V-FITC/PI staining and scratch assays were carried out to examine the changes in proliferation, apoptosis and migration of the cells. We also established nude mouse models bearing osteosarcoma xenografts derived 143B cells and RHPN2-shRNA-transfected 143B cells, and assessed the effect of RHPN2 silencing on osteosarcoma cell tumorigenesis using HE staining. Kaplan-Meier survival curves were used to analyze the correlation between RHPN2 expression and survival outcomes of patients with osteosarcoma. RESULTS RHPN2 expression was significantly upregulated in osteosarcoma cell lines MG-63, 143B and SAOS2 (P < 0.01). Silencing of RHPN2 significantly inhibited the proliferation and migration of 143B cells in vitro, promoted cell apoptosis (P < 0.01), and suppressed tumorigenic capacity of the cells in nude mice. A high expression of RHPN2 was significantly correlated with a poor prognosis of patients with osteosarcoma (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION RHPN2 is highly expressed in osteosarcoma cells to promote cell proliferation and migration and inhibits cell apoptosis. A high expression of RHPN2 is associated with a poorer prognosis of the patients with osteosarcoma.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to assess the impact of ileostomy closure following preoperative physiological stimulation (PPS) on postoperative ileus (POI) in patients with loop ileostomy after low anterior resection for rectal cancer. METHODS Patients who underwent ileostomy closure between January 2017 and February 2020 in two tertiary referral centers were prospectively included. PPS stimulation was compared to standard treatment. Stimulation was carried out daily during the 15 days prior to ileostomy closure by the patient's self-instillation of 200 ml of fecal contents from the ileostomy bag via the efferent loop, using a rectal catheter. Standard treatment (ST) consisted of observation. Outcomes measures were POI, morbidity, stimulation feasibility, and predictors to ileus. RESULTS A total of 58 patients were included [42 males and 16 females, median age 67 (43-85) years]. PPS was used in 24 patients, who completed the entire stimulation process, and ST in 34 patients. No differences in preoperative factors were found between the two groups. POI was significantly lower in the PPS group (4.2%) vs the ST group (32.4%); p < 0.01, OR: 0.05 (CI 95% 0.01-0.65). The PPS group had a shorter time to restoration of bowel function (1 day vs 3 days) p = 0.02 and a shorter time to tolerance of liquids (1 day vs 2 days), p = 0.04. Age (p = 0.01), open approach at index surgery, p = 0.03, adjuvant capecitabine (p = 0.01). and previous abdominal surgeries (p = 0.02) were associated with POI in the multivariate analysis. C-reactive-protein values on the 3rd (p = 0.02) and 5th (p < 0.01) postoperative day were also associated with POI. CONCLUSIONS PPS for patients who underwent ileostomy closure after low anterior resection for rectal cancer is feasible and might reduce POI.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction A higher rate of anastomotic leakage (AL) is reported after ileosigmoid anastomosis (ISA) or ileorectal anastomosis (IRA) in total or subtotal colectomy (TSC) compared with colonic or colorectal anastomosis. The main aim of the present study was to assess potential risk factors for AL after ISA or IRA and to investigate determinants of morbidity.
Methods We identified 180 consecutive patients in a prospective referral, single center database, in which 83 of the patients underwent TSC with ISA or IRA. Data regarding the clinical characteristics, surgical treatment, and outcome were assessed to determine their association with the cumulative incidence of AL and surgical morbidity.
Results Ileosigmoid anastomosis was performed in 51 of the patients (61.5%) and IRA in 32 patients (38.6%). The cumulative incidence of AL was 15.6% (13 of 83 patients). A higher AL rate was found in patients under 50 years-old (p = 0.038), in the elective-laparoscopic approach subgroup (p = 0.049), and patients in the inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) subgroup (p = 0.009). Furthermore, 14 patients (16.9%) had morbidity classified as Clavien-Dindo ≥ IIIA.
Discussion A relatively high incidence of AL after TSC was observed in a relatively safe surgical procedure. Our findings suggest that the risk of AL may be higher in IBD patients. According to our results, identifying risk factors prior to surgery may improve short-term outcomes.

Abstract
AIM The aim of the study was to compare the incidence of perineal hernia and the perineal wound morbidity following extralevator abdominoperineal excision (ELAPE) between two groups - primary perineal closure and reconstruction with a biological mesh. METHOD One hundred and forty-seven consecutive patients who underwent ELAPE for primary rectal cancer between January 2007 and December 2018 in two tertiary referral centres were retrospectively identified from prospective databases. Perineal closure was carried out via primary closure or with a biological mesh (porcine dermal collagen mesh). Outcome measures were perineal hernia and perineal wound morbidity (infection, dehiscence, persistent sinus and chronic pain). RESULTS A total of 139 patients were included in the study. A prophylactic mesh was used in 80 (57.5%) and primary closure was practised in 59 (42.4%) patients. The median follow-up was 30 (interquartile range 46.88) months. Thirty patients (21.6%) developed perineal hernia. No significant differences were found between prophylactic mesh and primary closure (16.3% vs 23.3%, P = 0.07). The median period between surgery and hernia diagnosis was 8 months in the primary closure group and 24 months in the mesh group (P < 0.01). Perineal wound morbidity was significantly higher in the prophylactic mesh group (55% vs 33.9%, P < 0.01). CONCLUSION In our study, the use of a biological mesh did not reduce the rate of perineal hernia, although it did delay its appearance. Perineal closure using a biological mesh may increase perineal morbidity, both acute and chronic.

Abstract
Crenata broomrape (Orobanche crenata Forsk.), an obligate chlorophyll-lacking root parasite, is the major constraint for growing legume crops in infested soils in southern Spain. Peas (Pisum sativum L), faba beans (Vicia faba L.), and narbon bean (Vicia narbonensis L.) are seriously affected (1,2,4). However, no information is available regarding its ability to attack sulla (Hedysarum coronarium L.), which is an important fodder legume grown in rain-fed conditions, yielding as much as 10,000 kg/ha of dry matter. In 2008, we found broomrape shoots infecting 4 to 5% of sulla plants in a trial field (two land races, P-26 and P-3, in a 500-m2 area) in Cordoba (Andalusia, southern Spain). The shoots developed numerous fertile flowering stalks throughout the field. The previous crop, narbon bean, was heavily infected during 2007 by O. crenata. Infection of sulla plants was confirmed by digging up the plant to verify the attachment of the broomrape plant to the sulla roots. The level of infection was low with only one to two emerged broomrape shoots per sulla plant infested. Morphology was typical of O. crenata. The calyx of the flowers was 13 to 18 mm long with free, bidentate segments. The white corolla of the flowers was 18 to 28 mm long and glandular pubescent. The lips were divergent, large, not ciliate, and filaments inserted 2 to 3 mm above the base of the corolla are hairy at base with glandular hair at the apex. The anthers were brown (3). Specimens were deposited in the Herbarium of the University of Córdoba (identification number COA 45358). To our knowledge, this first report of O. crenata parasitizing sulla shows that control methods for O. crenata will be needed if sulla is to be used as an alternative legume fodder in the infested soils of southern Spain.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Treatment of benign rectovaginal fistula has a high failure rate and entails difficult decisions. The purpose of this retrospective study was to clarify the concepts which may improve its management. METHODS Between 1983 and 2004, 46 consecutive women of median age 41 years were treated by the same surgeon. Etiology of simple fistulas was iatrogenic (n=6), obstetric (n=4) and septic (n=3). Complex fistulas were due to inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) (n=18, 11 pouchvaginal) or were iatrogenic (n=9), actinic (n=5) or septic (n=1). Surgical techniques included endorectal or vaginal advancement flaps, fistulectomy and sphincteroplasty, vaginal/rectal closure and epiploplasty, restorative proctectomy and restorative proctocolectomy. In 20 patients, a diverting stoma was performed as a single procedure or concomitant to the curative attempt. RESULTS Overall, 33 of the 39 fistulas (85%) treated for cure healed, including all simple fistulas and 20 complex fistulas (8 iatrogenic, 3 actinic, 2 ulcerative colitis without restorative proctocolectomy; 5 pouch vaginal; 1 septic; 1 Crohn's disease) (p=0.009). The first operation for the fistula was curative in 20 of 39 fistulas, including 10 of 13 simple and 10 of 26 complex fistulas (p=0.023). There was no significant age difference between cured and not-cured patients. CONCLUSIONS Simple versus complex fistulas is the most determinant factor for healing. In IBD fistulas, ulcerative colitis shows better prognosis than Crohn's disease. For complex fistulas, a temporary diverting stoma seems necessary.

Abstract
The aim of this report is to describe a novel technical approach to total anorectal reconstruction after a Miles operation for rectal cancer. Recreation of an internal neosphincter with colonic muscle, the implant of an artificial bowel sphincter (ABS), and the association of a coloplasty constitute a complete substitution of the lost structures and functions. Although the patient developed a late complication which required removal of the ABS, the functional result of the technique can be considered as excellent, to be demonstrated by the incontinence score and quality of life with and without the colostomy.
