RESUMO
AIM: Restorative proctocolectomy with transabdominal ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (abd-IPAA) has become the standard surgical treatment for medically refractory ulcerative colitis (UC). However, it requires a technically difficult distal anorectal dissection and anastomosis due to the bony confines of the deep pelvis. To address these challenges, the transanal IPAA approach (ta-IPAA) was developed. This novel approach may offer increased visibility and range of motion compared with abd-IPAA, although its postoperative benefits remain unclear. The aim of this work was to perform a systematic review and meta-analysis to compare and inform the frequency of postoperative outcomes between ta-IPAA and abd-IPAA for patients with UC. METHOD: Several databases were searched from inception until May 2022 for studies reporting postoperative outcomes of patients undergoing ta-IPAA. Reviewers, working independently and in duplicate, evaluated studies for inclusion and graded the risk of bias. Odds ratios (OR), mean differences (MD) and prevalence ratio (PR) and their corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated using random-effects models. Sensitivity analysis was performed. RESULTS: Ten retrospective studies comprising 284 patients with ta-IPAA were included. Total mesorectal excision was performed in 61.8% of cases and close rectal dissection in 27.9%. There was no difference in the odds of Clavien-Dindo (CD) I-II complications, CD III-IV and anastomotic leak (OR 0.96, 95% CI 0.27-3.40; OR 1.18, 95% CI 0.65-2.16; OR 1.37, 95% CI 0.58-3.23; respectively) between ta-IPAA and abd-IPAA. The ta-IPAA pooled CD I-II complication rate was 18% (95% CI 5%-35%) and for CD III-IV 10% (95% CI 5%-17%), and the anastomotic leak rate was 6% (95% CI 2%-10%). There were no deaths reported. CONCLUSIONS: This meta-analysis compared the novel ta-IPAA procedure with abd-IPAA and found no difference in postoperative outcomes. While the need for randomized controlled trails and comparison of functional outcomes between both approaches remains, this evidence should assist colorectal surgeons to decide if ta-IPAA is a viable alternative.

BACKGROUND: Appendiceal orifice lesions are often managed operatively with limited or oncologic resections. The aim is to report the management of appendiceal orifice mucosal neoplasms using advanced endoscopic interventions. METHODS: Patients with appendiceal orifice mucosal neoplasms who underwent advanced endoscopic resections between 2011 and 2021 with either endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR), endoscopic mucosal dissection (ESD), hybrid ESD, or combined endoscopic laparoscopic surgery (CELS) were included from a prospectively collected dataset. Patient and lesion details and procedure outcomes are reported. RESULTS: Out of 1005 lesions resected with advanced endoscopic techniques, 41 patients (4%) underwent appendiceal orifice mucosal neoplasm resection, including 39% by hybrid ESD, 34% by ESD, 15% by EMR, and 12% by CELS. The median age was 65, and 54% were male. The median lesion size was 20 mm. The dissection was completed piecemeal in 49% of patients. Post-procedure, one patient had a complication within 30 days and was admitted with post-polypectomy abdominal pain treated with observation for 2 days with no intervention. Pathology revealed 49% sessile-serrated lesions, 24% tubular adenomas, and 15% tubulovillous adenomas. Patients were followed up for a median of 8 (0-48) months. One patient with a sessile-serrated lesion experienced a recurrence after EMR which was re-resected with EMR. CONCLUSION: Advanced endoscopic interventions for appendiceal orifice mucosal neoplasms can be performed with a low rate of complications and early recurrence. While conventionally lesions at the appendiceal orifice are often treated with surgical resection, advanced endoscopic interventions are an alternative approach with promising results which allow for cecal preservation.

PURPOSE: Limited data exist regarding the surgical outcomes of acute colonic pseudo-obstruction (ACPO), commonly referred to as Ogilvie syndrome, in modern clinical practice. The prevailing belief is that surgery should be avoided due to previously reported high mortality rates. We aimed to describe the surgical results of ACPO treated within our institution. METHODS: Our prospectively maintained colorectal surgery registry was queried for patients diagnosed with ACPO, who underwent surgery between 2009 and 2022. Postoperative complications were graded according to Clavien-Dindo (CD) classification. The primary outcome was postoperative mortality. RESULTS: A total of 32 patients who underwent surgery for ACPO were identified. Overall, nonoperative therapy was initially administered to 21 patients (65.6%). The surgeries performed included total abdominal colectomy (15, 43.1%), ascending colectomy with end ileostomy (8, 25%), transverse colostomy (5, 15.6%), ileostomy and transverse colostomy (3, 9.4%), and Hartmann's operation (1, 3.1%). Severe postoperative complications (CD grade 3 or 4) occurred in five patients (15.6%). No recurrence of ACPO was observed and no patient required reoperation. The average postoperative length of stay was 14.5 days, 30-day mortality was 6.3% (n = 2), and 90-day mortality was 15.6% (n = 5) due to complications of underlying comorbidities. CONCLUSIONS: Surgical treatment was effective for patients with ACPO refractory to medical therapy or presenting with acute complications. Although postoperative complications were frequent, both the 30- and 90-day mortality rates were lower than previously documented in the literature. Further investigations are warranted to determine the optimal surgical strategy, which may involve total or segmental colectomy, or diversion alone without resection.

BACKGROUND: Total neoadjuvant therapy is an alternative to neoadjuvant chemoradiation alone for rectal cancer and has the benefits of more completion of planned therapy, increased downstaging, earlier treatment of micrometastases, and assessment of chemosensitivity; however, it may increase surgical complications, especially with increased radiation-to-surgery interval. OBJECTIVE: The study aimed to determine the impact of total neoadjuvant therapy on postoperative complications compared with neoadjuvant chemoradiation alone. DESIGN: Retrospective cohort study. SETTINGS: Single tertiary referral center. PATIENTS: The patient included was a stage II/III rectal cancer patient who underwent total neoadjuvant therapy or long-course neoadjuvant chemoradiation followed by surgical resection from 2018-2020. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The main outcome measures included severe postoperative complications (Clavien-Dindo grade ≥3). RESULTS: Of 181 patients, 86 (47.5%) underwent total neoadjuvant therapy and 95 (52.5%) underwent neoadjuvant chemoradiation. There was no difference in severe postoperative complications or any complications. There was also no difference in the rate of complete total mesorectal excision or negative circumferential margin. Total neoadjuvant therapy had a mean operative time of 355.5 minutes and estimated blood loss of 263.6 mL compared with 326.7 minutes and 297.5 mL in the neoadjuvant chemoradiation group. Total neoadjuvant therapy patients had a lower mean lymph node yield than neoadjuvant chemoradiation patients. On multivariable analysis, total neoadjuvant therapy was associated with increased operative time (OR, 1.19; p < 0.001) and estimated blood loss (OR, 1.22; p < 0.001) and decreased lymph node yield (OR, 0.67; p < 0.001). There was no difference in severe complications or any complications. LIMITATIONS: Selection bias uncontrolled by modeling. CONCLUSIONS: We found no difference in risk of postoperative complications between patients who received total neoadjuvant therapy vs neoadjuvant chemoradiation. Total neoadjuvant therapy patients had longer operations and greater estimated blood loss. This may be a reflection of increased operative difficulty because of increased radiation-to-surgery interval and/or the effects of chemotherapy; however, the absolute differences were small and, therefore, should be interpreted cautiously.

IMPACTO DE LA TERAPIA NEOADYUVANTE TOTAL EN LOS RESULTADOS POSOPERATORIOS DESPUS DE UNA PROCTECTOMA POR CNCER DE RECTO: ANTECEDENTES:La terapia neoadyuvante total es una alternativa a la quimiorradiación neoadyuvante sola para el cáncer de recto y tiene los beneficios de una mayor finalización de la terapia planificada, mayor reducción del estadiage, tratamiento más temprano de las micrometástasis y evaluación de la quimiosensibilidad; sin embargo, puede aumentar las complicaciones quirúrgicas, especialmente con un mayor intervalo entre la radiación y la cirugía.OBJETIVO:Determinar el impacto de la terapia neoadyuvante total sobre las complicaciones posoperatorias en comparación con la quimiorradiación neoadyuvante sola.DISEÑO:Estudio de cohorte retrospectivo.ENTORNO CLINICO:Centro único de referencia terciario.PACIENTES:Paciente con cáncer de recto en estadio II/III que se sometieron a terapia neoadyuvante total o quimiorradiación neoadyuvante de larga duración seguida de resección quirúrgica entre 2018 y 2020.PRINCIPALES MEDIDAS DE RESULTADO:Complicaciones postoperatorias graves (grado de Clavien-Dindo ≥3).RESULTADOS:De 181 pacientes, 86 (47,5%) se sometieron a terapia neoadyuvante total y 95 (52,5%) se sometieron a quimiorradioterapia neoadyuvante. No hubo diferencia en las complicaciones postoperatorias graves o cualquier otra complicación. Tampoco hubo diferencia en la tasa de escisión mesorrectal total completa o margen circunferencial negativo. La terapia neoadyuvante total tuvo un tiempo operatorio promedio de 355,5 minutos y una pérdida de sangre estimada de 263,6 ml en comparación con 326,7 minutos y 297,5 ml en el grupo de quimiorradiación neoadyuvante. Los pacientes con terapia neoadyuvante total tuvieron una media de ganglios linfáticos más bajo en comparación con los pacientes con quimiorradioterapia neoadyuvante. En el análisis multivariable, la terapia neoadyuvante total se asoció con un mayor tiempo operatorio (OR = 1,19, p < 0,001) y pérdida de sangre estimada (OR = 1,22, p < 0,001) y menor cantidad los ganglios linfáticos (OR = 0,67, p < 0,001). No hubo diferencia en las complicaciones graves o cualquier complicación.LIMITACIONES:Sesgo de selección no controlado por modelado.CONCLUSIONES:No encontramos diferencias en el riesgo de complicaciones postoperatorias entre los pacientes que recibieron terapia neoadyuvante total versus quimiorradiación neoadyuvante. Los pacientes con terapia neoadyuvante total tuvieron operaciones más prolongadas y una mayor pérdida de sangre estimada. Esto puede ser un reflejo de una mayor dificultad quirúrgica como resultado de un mayor intervalo entre la radiación y la cirugía y/o los efectos de la quimioterapia; sin embargo, las diferencias absolutas fueron pequeñas y, por lo tanto, deben interpretarse con cautela.

BACKGROUND: The standard of care for surgical treatment of ulcerative colitis is restorative proctocolectomy with ileal J-pouch. Leaks from the tip of the J-pouch are a known complication, but there is a paucity of literature regarding this type of leak. OBJECTIVE: We aimed to describe the diagnosis, management, and long-term clinical outcomes of leaks from the tip of the J-pouch at our institution. DESIGN: This was a retrospective study of a prospectively maintained pouch registry. SETTING: This study was conducted at a quaternary IBD referral center. PATIENTS: Patients included those with ileal J-pouches diagnosed with leaks from the tip of the J-pouch. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The main measures of outcomes were pouch salvage rate, type of salvage procedures, and long-term Kaplan-Meier pouch survival. RESULTS: We identified 74 patients with leaks from the tip of the J-pouch. Pain (68.9%) and pelvic abscess (40.9%) were the most common presentations, whereas 10.8% of patients presented with an acute abdomen. The leak was diagnosed by imaging and/or endoscopy in 74.3% of patients but only discovered during surgical exploration in 25.6% of patients. Some 63.5% of patients were diagnosed only after loop ileostomy closure, whereas 32.4% of patients were diagnosed before ileostomy closure. The most common methods used for diagnosis were pouchoscopy (31.1%) and gastrograffin enema (28.4%). A definitive nonoperative approach was attempted in 48.6% of patients but was successful in only 10.8% of patients overall. Surgical repair was attempted in 89.2% of patients, whereas 4.5% of patients had pouch excision. Salvage operations (n = 63) included sutured or stapled repair of the tip of the J (65%), pouch excision with neo-pouch (25.4%), and pouch disconnection, repair, and reanastomosis (9.5%). Ultimately' 10 patients (13.5%) required pouch excision, yielding an overall 5-year pouch survival rate of 86.3%. LIMITATIONS: This was a retrospective review; referral bias may limit the generalizability. CONCLUSIONS: Leaks from the tip of the J-pouch have variable clinical presentations and require a high index of suspicion. Pouch salvage surgery is required in the majority of patients and is associated with a high pouch salvage rate. See Video Abstract at http://links.lww.com/DCR/C50 . FUGAS DEL EXTREMO DE LA BOLSA EN J DIAGNSTICO, MANEJO Y SUPERVIVENCIA A LARGO PLAZO DE LA BOLSA: ANTECEDENTES:El estándar de atención para el tratamiento quirúrgico de la colitis ulcerosa es la proctocolectomía restauradora con bolsa ileal en J.

El dolor (68,9%) y el absceso pélvico (40,9%) fueron las presentaciones más comunes, mientras que el 10,8% de los pacientes presentaron abdomen agudo. La fuga se diagnosticó por imagen y/o endoscopia en el 74,3%, pero solo se descubrió durante la exploración quirúrgica en el 25,6%. El 63,5% fueron diagnosticados solo después del cierre de la ileostomía en asa, mientras que el 32,4% lo fueron antes del cierre de la ileostomía. Los métodos más comunes utilizados para el diagnóstico fueron la endoscopia (31,1%) y el enema de gastrografín (28,4%). Se intentó un abordaje no quirúrgico definitivo en el 48,6%, pero tuvo éxito en solo el 10,8% de los pacientes en general. Se intentó la reparación quirúrgica en el 89,2% de los pacientes, mientras que en el 4,5% se realizó la escisión del reservorio. Las operaciones de rescate (n = 63) incluyeron la reparación con sutura o grapas del extremo de la J (65%), la escisión del reservorio con neo-reservorio (25,4%) y la desconexión, reparación y reanastomosis del reservorio (9,5%). Finalmente, 10 (13,5%) pacientes requirieron la escisión de la bolsa, lo que se asocio con una alta tasa de supervivencia general de la bolsa a los 5 años del 86,3%.LIMITACIONES:Revisión retrospectiva; el sesgo de referencia puede limitar la generalización.CONCLUSIONES:Las fugas del extremo de la bolsa en J tienen presentaciones clínicas variables y requieren un alto índice de sospecha. La cirugía de rescate de la bolsa se requiere en la mayoría y se asocia con una alta tasa de rescate de la bolsa. Consulte Video Resumen en http://links.lww.com/DCR/C50 .

BACKGROUND: Advanced endoscopy can be used for the complete removal of large colorectal polyps. To date, few surgeons perform advanced endoscopy, and it is unknown how many procedures are needed to reach proficiency. OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to determine the learning curve for colorectal advanced endoscopy. DESIGN: Retrospective. SETTING: Tertiary referral center. PATIENTS: We queried a prospectively maintained institutional database of advanced endoscopy performed by a high-volume colorectal surgeon between 2011 and 2018. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Advanced endoscopy characteristics were compared for 6 chronological intervals. Primary end points were the rates of complications and polyp recurrence. Secondary end point was the change in polyp removal rate (mm/h) over time. RESULTS: A total of 207 patients underwent advanced endoscopy for a single colorectal polyp. The median polyp size was 30 (4-70) mm, 61.5% were located in the right colon, and 8.8% were malignant. The mean procedure time was 77 (range, 16-320) minutes. Immediate colon resection occurred in 25 patients because of suspicion of cancer or concern for perforation and was excluded from the learning curve analysis. The remaining 182 advanced endoscopy procedures were divided into intervals of 30 procedures. The median removal rate was highest in the last interval and in the endoscopy suite. A removal rate of 30 mm/h was achieved after performing 100 cases. The complication rate (bleeding or return to operating room) was 12.1% and was similar across intervals. The readmission rate was 11.5%, and 6.6% of 6-month follow-up colonoscopies showed polyp recurrence at the resection site. LIMITATIONS: Retrospective design and single surgeon. CONCLUSION: The learning curve for achieving proficiency with advanced endoscopy in the colon and rectum required a minimum of 100 cases with a low complication rate, low polyp recurrence rate, high en bloc resection rate, and a polyp removal rate of 30 mm/h.

Hasta la fecha, pocos cirujanos realizan endoscopia avanzada y se desconoce cuántos procedimientos se necesitan para alcanzar la competencia.OBJETIVO:Determinar la curva de aprendizaje de la endoscopia colorrectal avanzada.DISEÑO:Retrospectivo.AJUSTE:Centro de referencia terciario.PACIENTES:Consultamos una base de datos institucional mantenida prospectivamente de endoscopia avanzada realizada por un cirujano colorrectal de alto volumen entre 2011 y 2018.PRINCIPALES MEDIDAS DE RESULTADO:Se compararon las características de la endoscopia avanzada en seis intervalos cronológicos. Los puntos finales primarios fueron las tasas de complicaciones y recurrencia de pólipos. El criterio de valoración secundario fue el cambio en la tasa de eliminación de pólipos (mm/h) a lo largo del tiempo.RESULTADOS:Un total de 207 pacientes se sometieron a una endoscopia avanzada por un solo pólipo colorrectal. La mediana del tamaño de los pólipos fue de 30 (4-70) mm, el 61,5% se ubicaron en el colon derecho y el 8,8% fueron malignos. El tiempo medio del procedimiento fue de 77 (rango: 16-320) minutos. La resección inmediata del colon ocurrió en 25 pacientes debido a la sospecha de cáncer o preocupación por la perforación y fueron excluidos del análisis de la curva de aprendizaje. Los restantes 182 procedimientos de endoscopia avanzada se dividieron en intervalos de 30 procedimientos. La mediana de la tasa de extirpación fue más alta en el último intervalo y en la sala de endoscopia. Se logró una tasa de extirpación de 30 mm/hr después de realizar 100 casos. La tasa de complicaciones (sangrado o retorno al quirófano) fue del 12,1% y fue similar en todos los intervalos. La tasa de reingreso fue del 11,5% y el 6,6% de las colonoscopias de seguimiento a los 6 meses mostraron recurrencia de pólipos en el sitio de la resección.LIMITACIONES:Diseño retrospectivo, cirujano único.CONCLUSIÓN:La curva de aprendizaje para lograr el dominio de la endoscopia avanzada en el colon y el recto requiere un mínimo de 100 casos con una baja tasa de complicaciones, baja tasa de recurrencia de pólipos, alta tasa de resección en bloque y una tasa de eliminación de pólipos de 30 mm/h.

BACKGROUND: Colorectal resections have relatively high rates of surgical site infections causing significant morbidity. Incisional negative pressure wound therapy was introduced to improve wound healing of closed surgical incisions and to prevent surgical site infections. OBJECTIVE: This randomized controlled trial aimed to investigate the effect of incisional NPWT on superficial surgical site infections in high-risk, open, reoperative colorectal surgery. DESIGN: This was a single-center randomized controlled trial conducted between July 2015-October 2020. Patients were randomly assigned to incisional negative pressure wound therapy or standard gauze dressing with a 1:1 ratio. A total of 298 patients were included. SETTINGS: This study was conducted at the colorectal surgery department of a tertiary-level hospital. PATIENTS: This study included patients older than 18 years who underwent elective reoperative open colorectal resections. Patients were excluded who had open surgery within the past 3 months, who had active surgical site infection, and who underwent laparoscopic procedures. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The primary outcome was superficial surgical site infection within 30 days. Secondary outcomes were deep and organ-space surgical site infections within 7 days and 30 days, postoperative complications, and length of hospital stay. RESULTS: A total of 149 patients were included in each arm. The mean age was 51 years, and 49.5% were women. Demographics, preoperative comorbidities, and preoperative albumin levels were comparable between the groups. Overall, most surgeries were performed for IBD, and 77% of the patients had an ostomy fashioned during the surgery. No significant difference was found between the groups in 30-day superficial surgical site infection rate (14.1% in control versus 9.4% in incisional negative pressure wound therapy; p = 0.28). Deep and organ-space surgical site infections rates at 7 and 30 days were also comparable between the groups. Postoperative length of stay and complication rates (Clavien-Dindo grade) were also comparable between the groups. LIMITATIONS: The patient population included in the trial consisted of a selected group of high-risk patients. CONCLUSIONS: Incisional negative pressure wound therapy was not associated with reduced superficial surgical site infection or overall complication rates in patients undergoing high-risk reoperative colorectal resections.

Se excluyeron aquellos pacientes que tuvieron cirugía abierta en los últimos 3 meses, con infección activa del sitio quirúrgico y que fueron sometidos a procedimientos laparoscópicos.PRINCIPALES MEDIDAS DE RESULTADO:El resultado primario fue infección superficial del sitio quirúrgico dentro de los 30 días. Los resultados secundarios fueron infecciones del sitio quirúrgico profundas y del espacio orgánico dentro de los 7 y 30 días, las complicaciones posoperatorias y la duración de la estancia hospitalaria.RESULTADOS:Se incluyeron un total de 149 pacientes en cada brazo. La edad media fue de 51 años y el 49,5% fueron mujeres. La demografía, las comorbilidades preoperatorias y los niveles de albúmina preoperatoria fueron comparables entre los grupos. En general, la mayoría de las cirugías fueron realizadas por enfermedad inflamatoria intestinal y al 77 % de los pacientes se les confecciono una ostomía durante la cirugía. No hubo diferencias significativas entre los grupos en la tasa de infección del sitio quirúrgico superficial a los 30 días (14,1 % en el control frente a 9,4 % en el tratamiento de herida incisional con presión negativa, p = 0,28). Las tasas de infecciones del sitio quirúrgico profundas y del espacio orgánico a los 7 y 30 días también fueron comparables entre los grupos.

AIM: The management of anastomotic leak after sigmoid colectomy for diverticular disease has not been well defined. Specifically, there is a lack of literature on optimal types of reoperations for leaks. The aim of this study was to describe and compare reoperative approaches and their postoperative outcomes. METHODS: We performed a retrospective cohort study using the NSQIP Colectomy Module (2012-2019) and single-institution chart review. Patients with diverticular disease who underwent elective sigmoid colectomy were included. Primary outcomes were anastomotic leak requiring reoperation and management of anastomotic leak. RESULTS: Of 37,471 patients who underwent sigmoid colectomy for diverticular disease, 1003 (2.7%) suffered an anastomotic leak, of whom 583 underwent reoperation. Of the 572 patients who were not initially diverted and underwent reoperation for leak, 302 (52.8%) were managed with stoma creation - 200 (35.0%) with colostomy and 102 (17.8%) with ileostomy. The remaining 47.2% underwent colectomy with reanastomosis, suturing of large bowel, and drainage. There were no differences in length of stay, readmission, or mortality between patients who underwent ileostomy or colostomy at reoperation (p > 0.05). Single-institution analysis demonstrated that 100% of patients with ileostomies underwent subsequent ileostomy closure, compared to 60% of patients with colostomies. CONCLUSIONS: In patients who suffer anastomotic leaks after sigmoid colectomy for diverticular disease and undergo reoperations, ileostomy at the time of reoperation appears to be safe, with comparable results to colostomy. Ileostomies were more frequently closed than colostomies. When faced with a colorectal anastomotic leak, ileostomy creation may be considered.

AIM: Due to their rarity, the management of colorectal gastrointestinal stromal tumours (CR GISTs) is still under debate. The aim of this study was to assess prognostic factors. METHOD: We performed a retrospective review of patients who underwent surgery with curative intent for CR GIST at our centre from 2002 to 2019. Factors associated with overall (OS) and recurrence-free survival (RFS) were analysed. RESULTS: Fifty-six patients were included [median age 63 years, 29 (52%) female, 30 (54%) Miettinen high-risk, 40 (71%) with rectal GIST]. Nineteen (34%) patients received perioperative (neoadjuvant and/or adjuvant) imatinib. All cases of colonic GIST had an R0 resection, compared with 28 (70%) of rectal GISTs. After a median follow-up of 97 months (interquartile range 48-155 months), 14 (25%) deaths and 14 (25%) recurrences occurred. In the high-risk cohort, factors associated with improved RFS were R0 resection (OR 0.19, 95% CI 0.1-0.5, p = 0.002) and perioperative imatinib (OR 0.33, 95% CI 0.42-0.97, p = 0.04). Patients who had received perioperative imatinib had longer RFS (60% vs. 11% at 5 years, p = 0.006) but not OS. In rectal GISTs, 5-year OS was 85% for R0 and 70% for R1 resections (p = 0.164) and 5-year RFS was 85% for R0 and 12% for R1 resection (p < 0.001). When stratifying patients by perioperative imatinib, there were no differences in OS or RFS in the R0 or R1 groups. CONCLUSION: Perioperative imatinib and R0 resection were associated with improved RFS in high-risk patients with CR GIST. In patients with rectal GIST, R1 resection was associated with worse RFS irrespective of perioperative imatinib treatment.

BACKGROUND: The laparoscopic approach for colon cancer has become widely accepted. However, its safety for T4 tumors, and particularly for T4b tumors when local invasion to adjacent structures occurs, remains controversial. This study aimed to compare short and long-term outcomes in patients undergoing laparoscopic vs. open resection for T4a and T4b colon cancers. METHODS: A prospectively maintained, single-institution database was queried to identify patients with pathological stage T4a and T4b colon adenocarcinomas electively operated on between 2000 and 2012. Patients were divided into two groups based on the use of laparoscopy. Patient characteristics, perioperative, and oncologic outcomes were compared. RESULTS: One hundred and nineteen patients [41 laparoscopic (L), 78 open surgeries (O)] met the inclusion criteria. No difference was observed in age, gender, BMI, ASA, and procedure between groups. Tumors treated by L were smaller than O (p = 0.003). No difference was observed in morbidity, mortality, reoperation, or readmission between the groups. Length of hospital stay was shorter in L than O (6 vs. 9 days, p = 0.005). Conversion to open was necessary in 22% of all T4 tumors laparoscopic cases. However, when tumors were subdivided by pT4 classification, conversion was necessary for 4 of 34 (12%) pT4a patients vs. 5 of 7 (71%) pT4b patients (p = 0.003). In the pT4b cohort (n = 37), more tumors were treated by the open approach (30 vs. 7). For pT4b tumors, the R0 resection rate was 94% (86% in L vs. 97% in O, p = 0.249). The use of laparoscopy did not impact overall survival, disease-free survival, cancer-specific survival, or tumor recurrence overall in all T4 or T4a and T4b tumors. CONCLUSIONS: Laparoscopic surgery can be safely performed in pT4 tumors with similar oncologic outcomes as compared to open surgery. However, for pT4b tumors, the conversion rate is very high. The open approach may be preferable.

INTRODUCTION: Mucosal lesions located at the ileocecal valve may be challenging for endoscopic intervention because of angulated anatomy and a thinner wall with narrower lumen when compared to other locations of the bowel. This study aimed to evaluate the management and outcomes of ileocecal valve lesions treated endoscopically. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Patients with mucosal neoplasms involving the ileocecal valve managed with advanced endoscopy at a quaternary care hospital between 2011 and 2021 were included from a prospectively collected database. Patient demographics, lesion characteristics, complications, and outcomes are reported. RESULTS: From 1005 lesions, 80 patients (8%) underwent resection for neoplasms involving ileocecal valve by ESD (n = 38), hybrid ESD (n = 38), EMR (n = 2), and CELS (n = 2). The median age of the study group was 63(37-84) years, and 50% of patients were female. The median lesion size was 34 mm (5-75). The mean procedure time was 66 ± 44 min(range:18-200). The dissection was completed as piecemeal in 41(51%) patients and 35(44%) had en-bloc dissection. Seven(8%) endoscopic interventions required conversion to laparoscopic surgery due to inability to lift the mucosa(n = 4) and perforation(n = 3). No immediate bleeding occurred in the study group. Five patients had late rectal bleeding and two were admitted with post-polypectomy pain within 30 days of intervention. Pathology revealed 4(5%) adenocarcinomas, 33(41.2%) tubular adenomas, 30(37.8%) tubulovillous adenomas, and 5(6.2%) sessile serrated adenomas. Sixty-seven (84.5%) patients completed at least one follow-up colonoscopy and were followed for a median of 11(0-64) months. Six (8.9%) patients had recurrence and were managed with subsequent endoscopic removal. CONCLUSION: Advanced endoscopy can be safely and effectively performed for the management of ileocecal valve polyps with low complication and acceptable recurrence rates. Advanced endoscopy promises an alternative approach to oncologic ileocecal resection while attaining organ preservation. Our study demonstrates the impact of advanced endoscopy for the treatment of mucosal neoplasms involving ileocecal valve.

BACKGROUND: The surface morphology of colorectal polyps is well correlated with submucosal invasion in Eastern Countries but not in North America. We aimed to investigate associations between the Paris classification, surface morphology, and Kudo pit pattern to submucosal invasion in advanced endoscopic resection techniques. METHODS: We retrospectively analyzed prospectively collected data of consecutive advanced endoscopic procedures conducted by a single surgeon between August 2017 and October 2018. The data included patients' demographics, the endoscopic finding of polyps (Paris, Kudo, and surface morphology), and pathology results. RESULTS: The study consisted of 138 lesions, and the mean age was 67 ± 10 years. The most common polyp locations were cecum (n = 41, 30%) followed by ascending colon (n = 28, 20%), and sigmoid colon (n = 18, 13%).The median polyp size was 30 mm (25-40). The en-bloc resection rate was 96%, and 11 (8%) polyps had adenocarcinoma with submucosal invasion. Nine patients (6.5%) had late bleeding, and 3 (2.2%) perforation occurred. Polyps with pit pattern of Kudo IV (n = 4, 36.4%) and Kudo V (n = 6, 54.5%) were associated with submucosal invasion. CONCLUSIONS: Surface morphology and pit pattern can predict submucosal invasion in the North American patient population. Polyp morphology may aid polyp selection for advanced endoscopic interventions.

BACKGROUND: The approach to constipation refractory to medical management does not necessarily follow classical teaching and is challenging. Although the role of surgery is unclear, diverting loop ileostomy may be offered to gauge symptom response followed by colectomy for appropriate patients. OBJECTIVE: Our goal was to examine outcomes in patients with constipation not falling into classical subtypes who underwent diverting loop ileostomy creation as the initial surgical intervention. Our secondary aim was to offer patients colectomy and anastomosis and examine their outcome if they improved after ileostomy. DESIGN: The study design was a retrospective review. SETTINGS: This study was conducted in the pelvic floor center of our colorectal surgery department from January 2006 to December 2018. PATIENTS: Patients with medically refractory constipation referred for surgical consideration and not falling into classical constipation categories (slow transit, normal transit, or pelvic floor dysfunction) underwent evaluation with transit marker study, cinedefecography, and anal physiology and were offered ileostomy as initial surgical management. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The primary measures were symptom improvement and self-reported quality of life improvement with increased patient satisfaction. RESULTS: Eighty-seven patients underwent diverting loop ileostomy as initial surgical therapy. Group 1 had 54 (62%) patients who self-reported symptom improvement, discontinued anticonstipation medication, and had ileostomy output >200 mL/day. Of these 54 patients, 25 had colectomy with anastomosis, 16 (64%) of whom had symptom improvement, stayed off bowel medication, and had >1 bowel movement daily. Group 2 had 33 patients who did not meet the above criteria after initial ileostomy. Nine patients in group 2 elected colectomy with anastomosis after intensive counseling; 6 (66%) reported the same positive results above. LIMITATIONS: The study limitations included: 1) no objective outcome measures of patient's perceived symptom improvement and satisfaction and 2) retrospective review. CONCLUSION: Initial creation of diverting loop ileostomy may be offered to a subset of refractory constipation patients not falling into classical categories after thorough workup. Patients who self-report symptom improvement, have ileostomy output >200 mL/day, and do not require bowel medication may have acceptable results with subsequent colectomy and ileorectal anastomosis.

ILEOSTOMA EN ASA DERIVATIVA EN CASOS DE ESTREIMIENTO REFRACTARIOS AL TRATAMIENTO MDICO, QUE NO PERTENECEN A LAS CATEGORAS CLSICAS: ANTECEDENTES:El enfoque del estreñimiento refractario al tratamiento médico, que no siempre se presenta como las formas descritas clasicamente, es un desafío. Si bien el papel de la cirugía no está claro, se puede ofrecer una ileostomía en asa para medir la respuesta de los síntomas, seguida de colectomía en pacientes seleccionados.OBJETIVO:Evaluar los resultados de pacientes con estreñimiento, que no pertenecen a las formas clásicas de presentación, que se les realizó una ileostomía en asa de derivación, como intervención quirúrgica inicial. El objetivo secundario fue ofrecer a los pacientes una colectomía con anastomosis primaria y evaluar si mejoraban sus resultados después de la ileostomía.DISEÑO:El diseño del estudio fue una revisión retrospectiva.MARCO:Este estudio se realizó en el centro del piso pélvico de nuestro departamento de cirugía colorrectal, e incluyo los pacientes atendidos entre enero de 2006 y diciembre de 2018.PACIENTES:Se incluyeron los pacientes con estreñimiento refractario al tratamiento médico, derivados para evaluación quirúrgica, que no presentaban las formas clásicas de presentación (tránsito lento, tránsito normal, disfunción del suelo pélvico). Estos se sometieron a evaluación con estudio de tránsito colónico, cinedefecografía y fisiología anal, y se les ofreció una ileostomía en asa como tratamiento quirúrgico inicial.PRINCIPALES MEDIDAS DE RESULTADO:Las primeras medidas fueron la mejora de los síntomas y la calidad de vida informado por el paciente.RESULTADOS:Ochenta y siete pacientes fueron sometidos a ileostomía en asa como tratamiento quirúrgico inicial. El grupo 1 tenía 54 (62%) pacientes que informaron mejoría de los síntomas, interrumpieron la medicación proquinética y tuvieron un débito por la ileostomía >200 cc/día. De estos 54 pacientes, 25 se sometieron a colectomía más anastomosis primaria y 16 (64%) tuvieron una mejoría de los síntomas, dejaron de tomar medicamentos proquinéticos y tuvieron más de una evacuación al día. El grupo 2 tenía 33 pacientes que no cumplían con los criterios de mejoría de los síntomas después de la ileostomía inicial. Nueve pacientes del grupo 2 eligieron colectomía con anastomosis después de un asesoramiento intensivo, 6 (66%) informaron resultados positivos de mejoría de los síntomas.LIMITACIONES:Las limitaciones del estudio incluyeron 1) ninguna medida de resultado objetiva de la mejora y satisfacción de los síntomas percibidos por el paciente 2) revisión retrospectiva.CONCLUSIÓNES:La creación inicial de una ileostomía en asa de derivación se puede ofrecer a un subgrupo de pacientes con estreñimiento refractario que no entran en las categorías clásicas después de un estudio exhaustivo. La mejoría de los síntomas, informado por los pacientes, producción de ileostomía >200 cc/día y que no requieren medicación proquinética, pueden tener resultados aceptables con colectomía y anastomosis ileorrectal.

BACKGROUND: Randomized studies have validated laparoscopic proctectomy for the treatment of rectal cancer as noninferior to an open proctectomy, but most of those studies have included sphincter-preserving resections along with abdominoperineal resection. OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to compare perioperative and long-term oncological outcomes between minimally invasive and open abdominoperineal resection. DESIGN: This study is a retrospective analysis of a prospectively maintained database. SETTINGS: The study was conducted in a single specialized colorectal surgery department. PATIENTS: All patients who underwent abdominoperineal resection for primary rectal cancer between 2000 and 2016 were included. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The primary outcomes measured were the perioperative and long-term oncological outcomes. RESULTS: We included 452 patients, 372 in the open group and 80 in the minimally invasive group, with a median follow-up time of 74 months. There were significant differences between the groups in terms of neoadjuvant radiation treatment (67.5% of the open versus 81.3% of the minimally invasive group, p = 0.01), operative time (mean of 200 minutes versus 287 minutes, p < 0.0001), and mean length of stay (9.5 days versus 6.6 days, p < 0.0001). Overall complication rates were similar between the groups (34.5% versus 27.5%, p = 0.177). There were no significant differences in the mean number of lymph nodes harvested (21.7 versus 22.2 nodes, p = 0.7), circumferential radial margins (1.48 cm versus 1.37 cm, p = 0.4), or in the rate of involved radial margins (10.8% versus 6.3%, p = 0.37). Five-year overall survival was 70% in the open group versus 80% in the minimally invasive group (p = 0.344), whereas the 5-year disease-free survival rate in the open group was 63.2% versus 77.6% in the minimally invasive group (p = 0.09). LIMITATIONS: This study was limited because it describes a single referral institution experience. CONCLUSIONS: Although both approaches have similar perioperative outcomes, the minimally invasive approach benefits the patients with a shorter length of stay and a lower risk for surgical wound infections. Both approaches yield similar oncological technical quality in terms of the lymph nodes harvested and margins status, and they have comparable long-term oncological outcomes.

Hubo diferencias significativas entre los grupos en términos de tratamiento con radiación neoadyuvante (67,5% del grupo abierto versus 81,3% del grupo mínimamente invasivo, p = 0,01), tiempo operatorio (media de 200 minutos versus 287 minutos, p < 0,0001) y la duración media de la estancia (9,5 días frente a 6,6 días, p < 0,0001). Las tasas generales de complicaciones fueron similares entre los grupos (34,5% versus 27,5%, p = 0,177). No hubo diferencias significativas en el número medio de ganglios linfáticos extraídos (21,7 versus 22,2 ganglios, p = 0,7), márgenes radiales circunferenciales (1,48 cm y 1,37 cm, p = 0,4), ni en la tasa de márgenes radiales afectados (10,8 cm). % versus 6,3%, p = 0,37). La supervivencia general a 5 años fue del 70% en el grupo abierto frente al 80% en el grupo mínimamente invasivo (p = 0,344), mientras que la tasa de supervivencia libre de enfermedad a 5 años en el grupo abierto fue del 63,2% frente al 77,6% en el grupo mínimamente invasivo (p = 0,09).LIMITACIONES:Experiencia en una institución de referencia única.CONCLUSIONES:Si bien ambos tienen resultados perioperatorios similares, el enfoque mínimamente invasivo, beneficia a los pacientes con estadía más corta y menor riesgo de infecciones de la herida quirúrgica. Ambos enfoques, producen una calidad técnica oncológica similar en términos de ganglios linfáticos extraídos y estado de los márgenes, y tienen resultados oncológicos comparables a largo plazo.

BACKGROUND: Flap-based reconstruction following abdominoperineal resection has been used to address the resultant soft tissue defect and reduce postoperative wound complications. Vertical rectus abdominis myocutaneous flaps have been the traditional choice, but locoregional flaps have attracted attention in minimally invasive resection because they avoid additional abdominal dissection. However, few data exist comparing flap types. OBJECTIVE: To compare outcomes for different types of perineal reconstruction in patients undergoing abdominoperineal resection exclusively for anorectal pathology. DESIGN: This was a retrospective comparative study. SETTING: This study was conducted at a large, tertiary referral institution. PATIENTS: Following Institutional Review Board approval, prospectively maintained clinical and financial databases were interrogated and cross-referenced for patients undergoing proctectomy or abdominoperineal resection with flap reconstruction from 2007 to 2018. Patients with primary gynecological or urological pathology were excluded. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The primary outcome was flap complication rate. Secondary outcomes included perineal hernia rate, donor site complications, emergency department consult after discharge, readmission <90 days, and length of stay. Data were analyzed using univariate and multivariate techniques. RESULTS: A total of 135 patients (79 female, median age 58 years) were included: 68 rectus, 52 gluteal, and 15 gracilis flap reconstructions. Median follow-up was 46 months. Rates of both major and minor flap complications were similar for rectus and gluteal flaps, even when controlling for differences between groups via multivariate analysis ( p > 0.9), including extent of resection and use of mesh. For all flaps, American Society of Anesthesiology score ≥3 was the only independent predictor of major, but not minor, flap complications. For rectus and gluteal flaps, smoking, female sex, and American Society of Anesthesiology score ≥3 were independent predictors of major flap complications ( p < 0.05). LIMITATIONS: This study was limited by its retrospective nature and potential selection bias associated with flap choice; it was also impossible to quantify defect size. CONCLUSION: Gluteal flaps have similar complication rates to rectus flaps and may be considered for patients who are otherwise suitable for minimally invasive abdominoperineal resection.

ANTECEDENTES: La reconstrucción con colgajo después de la resección abdominoperineal se ha utilizado para abordar el defecto de tejido blando resultante y reducir las complicaciones postoperatorias de la herida. Los colgajos miocutáneos verticales del recto abdominal han sido la elección tradicional, pero los colgajos locorregionales han atraído la atención en la resección mínimamente invasiva porque evitan la disección abdominal adicional. Sin embargo, existen pocos datos que comparen los tipos de colgajos.

PURPOSE: Colorectal cancer patients are commonly considered a single entity in outcomes studies. This is particularly true for quality of life (QOL) studies. This study aims to compare oncologic and QOL outcomes between right colon, left colon, and rectal cancer in patients operated on in a single high-volume institution. METHODS: A prospectively maintained database was queried to identify patients with pathological stages I-III colorectal adenocarcinoma electively operated on with curative intent between 2000 and 2010. Patient characteristics, perioperative and oncologic outcomes, and QOL were compared according to cancer location. RESULTS: Two-thousand sixty-five (606 right colon cancer [RCC], 366 left colon cancer [LCC], and 1093 rectal cancer [RC]) patients met the inclusion criteria. LCC had better overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) in the non-adjusted analysis (p < 0.001) and better OS in multivariate analysis adjusted by age, gender, ASA, chemotherapy, and pathological stage (p = 0.024). Although RCC had worse OS and DFS in non-adjusted survival analysis than LCC and RC, when adjusted for the factors above, RCC had better survival outcomes than RC, but not LCC. COX regression analysis showed age (p < 0.001), gender (p = 0.016), ASA (p < 0.001), pathological stage (p < 0.001), adjuvant chemotherapy (p = 0.043), and cancer location (p = 0.024) were independently associated with OS. Age (p < 0.001), gender (p = 0.030), ASA (p = 0.004), and pathological stage (p < 0.001) were independently associated with DFS. Patients with RC reported more sexual dysfunction and work restrictions than colon cancers (p = 0.015 and p < 0.001, respectively). CONCLUSION: In an adjusted multivariate analysis, colon cancers demonstrated better survival outcomes when compared to rectal cancers.

AIM: The Turnbull-Cutait pull-through procedure (TCO) restores intestinal continuity in the setting of chronic pelvic sepsis, colorectal anastomotic leak, complex pelvic fistulas and technical challenges related to complicated rectal cancer. The aim of this study was to evaluate the outcomes of the TCO for salvaging complex pelvic conditions and to compare it to hand-sewn immediate coloanal anastomosis (CAA). METHODS: This is a retrospective single-institution study where we searched a prospectively maintained database to identify patients who underwent the TCO. Patient demographics, operative indications and outcomes were analysed. TCO success was defined as maintenance of intestinal continuity and being stoma-free. Kaplan-Meier analysis was employed for stoma-free survival analysis. RESULTS: A total of 81 patients with TCO and 129 patients with CAA were included. The TCO success rate was 69% at a median of 1.4 years' follow-up with 25 (31%) patients ending up with a permanent stoma compared to 22 (17%) in the CAA group with a median follow-up of 4 years (P = 0.03). The Kaplan-Meier cumulative incidence of TCO success at 1, 3 and 5 years was 79%, 60% and 51%, respectively, compared to 91%, 81% and 73% after CAA. CONCLUSION: The TCO has a high success rate for patients with complex pelvic conditions who may be facing a permanent stoma as their only option.

Despite an increase in screening colonoscopy, with the objective to decrease the incidence of colorectal cancer, a third of patients will present with an obstructing cancer. Malignant large bowel obstructions (MLBO) pose a challenging workup and treatment paradigm where an oncologic primary tumor resection must be balanced with relieving the obstruction, functional outcomes, palliation, and consideration for adjuvant therapy. A thorough work up with cross-sectional imaging and medical optimization should be attempted; however, patients may present in extremis and require emergent intervention. The onset of MLBO can be insidious, but result in electrolyte derangements, perforation, small bowel obstruction, hemorrhage, and ischemia. Self-expandable metallic stents have been used as palliation or as a bridge to surgery and have allowed for minimally invasive surgical options as well as a decrease in stoma rates. Patients with signs of colon ischemia or perforation require emergent surgery, which is associated with an increase in stoma formation, morbidity, mortality, and a decrease in overall survival.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Controversial data exists in the current literature in regard to the use of neoadjuvant chemoradiation (nCRT) in patients with clinical T3N0 (cT3N0) rectal cancers, specifically based on location and relation to peritoneal reflection. We aimed to analyze the impact of nCRT on oncologic outcomes among cT3N0 rectal cancers, depending on the tumor height from anal verge (AV). METHODS: A retrospective analysis of patients with cT3N0 rectal cancers was included from a query of a prospectively maintained rectal cancer database from 1980 to 2016. Patients were divided into 3 groups based on the tumor height: low (1-5 cm from AV), mid (6-10 cm from AV), and upper (11-15 cm from AV). Patients were stratified by use of nCRT. MAIN OUTCOMES: 5-year overall survival (OS), disease-free survival (DFS), cancer-specific survival (CSS), and local recurrence (LR) using Kaplan-Meier curves. RESULTS: Five hundred ninety-two patients were included. Overall, 364 (61.4%) patients received nCRT and 228 (38.6%) patients did not. There were 251 (43%) patients with low, 302 (51%) with mid, and 39 (7%) with upper rectal cancer. Patients with low and mid rectal cancers received nCRT more frequently than those with upper rectal cancers (68.5% and 61.2% vs 43.6%, p = 0.007). The 5-year OS was 78% and 63%, DFS-88% and 73%, LR-1% and 8% in nCRT followed by resection vs. surgery alone (p < 0.001). In regard to cancer location after nCRT compared with surgery alone, low and mid cancers had better OS, DFS, and CSS, compared with upper ones. CONCLUSION: nCRT prolongs survival among patients with rectal cancer below 10 cm from AV; however, it has no effect on 5-year oncologic survival of patients with upper rectal cancer located below peritoneal reflection.

BACKGROUND: Performing colonoscopies is an integral component of colorectal surgery residency training. There exists a paucity of literature regarding colonoscopy quality metrics with colorectal trainee involvement. OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to investigate the effect of colorectal surgery resident participation on quality metrics in screening colonoscopy. DESIGN: Screening colonoscopies performed between August 1, 2016, and July 31, 2018, were queried from a prospectively maintained institutional database. Data were cross-checked with resident case logs to verify colonoscopies with resident participation. SETTING: This study was conducted by the colorectal surgery department at a tertiary level hospital in the United States. PATIENTS: Consecutive, asymptomatic patients aged ≥45 years, undergoing screening colonoscopy, were selected. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The quality parameters measured included overall, male, and female adenoma detection rates; total examination time; withdrawal time; cecal intubation rate; quality of bowel preparation; complications; and medication dosage. RESULTS: A total of 4594 patients were included in the study with a mean age of 60.5 ± 8.4 years (range, 45-91); 51.7% were women. Overall, 4186 of the colonoscopies were performed without resident participation, and 408 were performed with resident participation. Scope insertion, withdrawal, and total examination times were longer in the resident group. Cecal intubation rate, polypectomy rate, sex-specific and overall adenoma detection rates, and complication rates were similar between the groups. In the multivariate model, trainee involvement had no significant impact on adenoma detection rate. In addition, the trainee group utilized a higher mean dose of fentanyl. LIMITATIONS: The retrospective nature of the data with possible coding errors of the database and the inability to quantify the amount of resident participation and to clarify the degree of attending surgeon assistance and oversight were limitations of the study. CONCLUSIONS: Colorectal surgery resident participation in screening colonoscopy takes longer and appears safe, while achieving all national quality metrics without compromising adenoma detection rates. Changes in colonoscopy scheduling in regard to length of time may prove beneficial when there is resident participation. See Video Abstract at http://links.lww.com/DCR/B43.

Existe una escasez de literatura con respecto a las medidas de calidad de la colonoscopia con la participación de los aprendices colorrectales.Investigar el efecto de la participación de residentes de cirugía colorrectal en las medidas de calidad en la colonoscopia de cribado.Las colonoscopias de cribado realizadas entre el 1 de agosto de 2016 y el 31 de julio de 2018 se consultaron desde una base de datos institucional mantenida prospectivamente. Los datos se cotejaron con registros de casos de residentes para verificar las colonoscopias con participación de residentes.Departamento de cirugía colorrectal en un hospital de tercer nivel de los Estados Unidos.Pacientes consecutivos, asintomáticos, edad ≥45 años, sometidos a colonoscopia de detección.Parámetros de calidad que incluyen tasas generales de detección de adenoma en hombres y mujeres, tiempo total de examen, tiempo de retiro, tasa de intubación cecal, calidad de la preparación intestinal, complicaciones y dosis de medicamentos.Se incluyeron un total de 4.594 pacientes en el estudio con una edad media de 60,5 ± 8,4 años (rango, 45-91) y 51,7% mujeres. En total 4,186 de las colonoscopias se realizaron sin participación de los residentes y 408 se realizaron con la participación de los residentes. Los tiempos de inserción, retiro y examen total del alcance fueron más largos en el grupo residentes. La tasa de intubación cecal, la tasa de polipectomía, las tasas de detección de adenoma específicos de género y generales, y las tasas de complicaciones fueron similares entre los grupos. En el modelo multivariado, la participación de los aprendices no tuvo un impacto significativo en la tasa de detección de adenoma. Además, el grupo de aprendices utilizó una dosis media más alta de fentanilo.Carácter retrospectivo de los datos con posibles errores de codificación de la base de datos. Incapacidad para cuantificar la cantidad de participación de los residentes y para aclarar el grado de asistencia y supervisión del cirujano.La participación de los residentes de cirugía colorrectal en la colonoscopia de cribado lleva más tiempo y parece segura, mientras se logran todas las medidas de calidad nacionales sin comprometer las tasas de detección de adenoma. Los cambios en la programación de la colonoscopia con respecto al período de tiempo pueden ser beneficiosos cuando hay participación de residentes.
