RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: Hereditary adenomatous polyposis syndromes, including familial adenomatous polyposis and other rare adenomatous polyposis syndromes, increase the lifetime risk of colorectal and other cancers. METHODS: A team of 38 experts convened to update the 2008 European recommendations for the clinical management of patients with adenomatous polyposis syndromes. Additionally, other rare monogenic adenomatous polyposis syndromes were reviewed and added. Eighty-nine clinically relevant questions were answered after a systematic review of the existing literature with grading of the evidence according to Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development, and Evaluation methodology. Two levels of consensus were identified: consensus threshold (≥67% of voting guideline committee members voting either 'Strongly agree' or 'Agree' during the Delphi rounds) and high threshold (consensus ≥ 80%). RESULTS: One hundred and forty statements reached a high level of consensus concerning the management of hereditary adenomatous polyposis syndromes. CONCLUSION: These updated guidelines provide current, comprehensive, and evidence-based practical recommendations for the management of surveillance and treatment of familial adenomatous polyposis patients, encompassing additionally MUTYH-associated polyposis, gastric adenocarcinoma and proximal polyposis of the stomach and other recently identified polyposis syndromes based on pathogenic variants in other genes than APC or MUTYH. Due to the rarity of these diseases, patients should be managed at specialized centres.

BACKGROUND: Although numerous treatments exist for the management of rectovaginal fistula, none has demonstrated its superiority. The role of diverting stoma remains controversial. A few series include Martius flap in the armamentarium. OBJECTIVE: Determine the role of gracilis muscle interposition and Martius flap in the surgical management of rectovaginal fistula. DESIGN: Retrospective cohort study of a pooled prospectively maintained database from 3 centers. PATIENTS: All consecutive eligible patients with rectovaginal fistula undergoing Martius flap and gracilis muscle interposition were included from 2001 to 2022. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Success was defined by the absence of stoma and rectovaginal fistula. RESULTS: Sixty-two patients were included with 55 Martius flap and 24 gracilis muscle interposition performed after failures of 164 initial procedures. Total length of stay was longer for gracilis muscle interposition by 2 days ( p = 0.01) without a significant difference in severe morbidity (20% vs 12%, p = 0.53). Twenty-seven percent of the Martius flap interpositions were performed without a stoma, which did not have an impact on overall morbidity ( p = 0.763). Per patient immediate success rates were not significantly different between groups (35% vs 31%, p > 0.99). The success of gracilis muscle interposition after the failure of the Martius flap was not significantly different from an initial gracilis muscle interposition ( p > 0.99). After simple perineal procedures, the immediate success rate rose to 49.4% (49% vs 50%, p > 0.99). After a median follow-up of 23 months, no significant difference was detected in success rate between the 2 procedures (69% vs 69%, p > 0.99). Smoking was the only negative predictive factor ( p = 0.02). LIMITATIONS: By its retrospective nature, this study is limited in its comparison. CONCLUSIONS: This novel comparison between Martius flap and gracilis muscle interposition suggests that Martius flap presents several advantages, including shorter length of stay, similar morbidity, and similar success rate. Proximal diversion via a stoma for Martius flap does not appear mandatory. Gracilis muscle interposition could be reserved as a salvage procedure after Martius flap failure. See Video Abstract . FSTULA RECTOVAGINAL CUL ES EL ROL DEL COLGAJO DE MARTIUS Y LA INTERPOSICIN DEL MSCULO GRACILIS EN LA ESTRATEGIA TERAPUTICA: ANTECEDENTES:Si bien existen numerosos tratamientos para el manejo de la fistula rectovaginal, ninguno ha demostrado su superioridad. El papel del estoma de derivación sigue siendo controvertido. Pocas series incluyen colgajo de Martius en el armamento.OBJETIVO:Determinar el rol de la interposición del músculo gracilis y del colgajo de Martius, en el manejo quirúrgico de la fístula rectovaginal.DISEÑO:Estudio de cohorte retrospectivo de una base de datos mantenida prospectivamente en 3 centros.AJUSTES/PACIENTES:Se incluyeron todos los pacientes elegibles consecutivos con fistula rectovaginal sometidos a colgajo de Martius y la interposición del músculo gracilis desde 2001 hasta 2022.RESULTADOS PRINCIPALES:El éxito se definió por la ausencia de estoma y fistula rectovaginal.RESULTADOS:Se incluyeron 62 pacientes con 55 colgajo de Martius y 24 con interposición del músculo gracilis realizados después de fracasos de 164 procedimientos iniciales. La duración total de la estancia hospitalaria fue dos días más larga para la interposición del músculo gracilis ( p = 0,01) sin una diferencia significativa en la morbilidad grave (20% frente a 12%, p = 0,53). El 27% de los colgajos de Martius se realizaron sin estoma, sin impacto en la morbilidad global ( p = 0,763). Las tasas de éxito inmediato por paciente no fueron significativamente diferentes entre los grupos (35% vs. 31%, p = 1,0). El éxito de la interposición del músculo gracilis después del fracaso del colgajo de Martius no fue significativamente diferente de una interposición del músculo gracilis inicial (p = 1,0). La tasa de éxito inmediato aumentó al 49,4% (49% frente a 50%, p = 1,0) después de procedimientos perineales simples. Después de una mediana de seguimiento de 23 meses, no se detectaron diferencias significativas en la tasa de éxito entre los dos procedimientos (69 % frente a 69 %, p = 1,0). El tabaquismo fue el único factor predictivo negativo ( p = 0,02).LIMITACIONES:Por su naturaleza retrospectiva, este estudio tiene limitaciones en su comparación.CONCLUSIÓN:Esta novedosa comparación entre colgajo de Martius y la interposición del músculo gracilis sugiere que el colgajo de Martius presenta varias ventajas, incluida una estancia prolongada más corta, una morbilidad similar y un éxito. La derivación proximal a través de un estoma para el colgajo de Martius no parece obligatoria. La interposición del músculo gracilis podría reservarse como procedimiento de rescate después de una falla de colgajo de Martius. (Traducción-Dr. Aurian Garcia Gonzalez ).

AIM: Some patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) require subtotal colectomy (STC) with ileostomy. The recent literature reports a significant number of patients who do not undergo subsequent surgery and are resigned to living with a definitive stoma. The aim of this work was to analyse the rate of definitive stoma and the cumulative incidence of secondary reconstructive surgery after STC for IBD in a large national cohort study. METHOD: A national retrospective study (2013-2021) was conducted on prospectively collected data from the French Medical Information System Database (PMSI). All patients undergoing STC in France were included. The association between definitive stoma and potential risk factors was studied using univariate and multivariate analyses. RESULTS: A total of 1860 patients were included (age 45 ± 9 years; median follow-up 30 months). Of these, 77% (n = 1442) presented with ulcerative colitis. Mortality and morbidity at 90 days after STC were 5% (n = 100) and 47% (n = 868), respectively. Reconstructive surgery was identified in 1255 patients (67%) at a mean interval of 7 months from STC. Seveny-four per cent (n = 932) underwent a completion proctectomy with ileal pouch anal anastomosis and 26% (n = 323) an ileorectal anastomosis. Six hundred and five (33%) patients with a definitive stoma had an abdominoperineal resection (n = 114; 19%) or did not have any further surgical procedure (n = 491; 81%). Independent risk factors for definitive stoma identified in multivariate analysis were older age, Crohn's disease, colorectal neoplasia, postoperative complication after STC, laparotomy and a low-volume hospital. CONCLUSION: We found that 33% of patients undergoing STC with ileostomy for IBD had definitive stoma. Modifiable risk factors for definitive stoma were laparotomy and a low-volume hospital.

OBJECTIVE: Report the rate of successful pregnancy in a national cohort of women with either an ileal pouch anal (IPAA) or ileorectal (IRA) anastomosis constructed after colectomy for inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) or polyposis. BACKGROUND: Fertility after IPAA is probably impaired. All available data are corroborated by only small sample size studies. It is not known whether construction of IPAA versus IRA influences the odds of subsequently achieving a successful pregnancy, especially with increased utilization of the laparoscopic approach. METHODS: All women (age: 12-45 y) undergoing IRA or IPAA in France for polyposis or IBD, between 2010-2020, were included. A control population was defined as women aged from 12 to 45 years undergoing laparoscopic appendicectomy during the same period. The odds of successful pregnancy were studied using an adjusted survival analysis. RESULTS: A total of 1491 women (IPAA=872, 58%; IRA=619, 42%) were included. A total of 220 deliveries (15%) occurred during the follow-up period of 71 months (39-100). After adjustment, the odds of successful pregnancy was not significantly associated with type of anastomosis (after IPAA: Hazard Ratio [HR]=0.79, 95% confidence interval=0.56-1.11, P =0.17). The laparoscopic approach increased the odds of achieving successful pregnancy (HR=1.79, 95% confidence interval=1.20-2.63, P =0.004). IRA and IPAA significantly impacted fertility when compared with the control population ( P <0.001). CONCLUSIONS: In this large cohort study, total colectomy for polyposis or IBD was associated with reduced fertility compared with the general population. No difference in odds of achieving successful pregnancy was found between IRA and IPAA after adjustment. This analysis suggests laparoscopic surgery may be associated with greater likelihood of pregnancy.

OBJECTIVES: To assess the specific results of delayed coloanal anastomosis (DCAA) in light of its 2 main indications. BACKGROUND: DCAA can be proposed either immediately after a low anterior resection (primary DCAA) or after the failure of a primary pelvic surgery as a salvage procedure (salvage DCAA). METHODS: All patients who underwent DCAA intervention at 30 GRECCAR-affiliated hospitals between 2010 and 2021 were retrospectively included. RESULTS: Five hundred sixty-four patients (male: 63%; median age: 62 years; interquartile range: 53-69) underwent a DCAA: 66% for primary DCAA and 34% for salvage DCAA. Overall morbidity, major morbidity, and mortality were 57%, 30%, and 1.1%, respectively, without any significant differences between primary DCAA and salvage DCAA ( P = 0.933; P = 0.238, and P = 0.410, respectively). Anastomotic leakage was more frequent after salvage DCAA (23%) than after primary DCAA (15%), ( P = 0.016).Fifty-five patients (10%) developed necrosis of the intra-abdominal colon. In multivariate analysis, intra-abdominal colon necrosis was significantly associated with male sex [odds ratio (OR) = 2.67 95% CI: 1.22-6.49; P = 0.020], body mass index >25 (OR = 2.78 95% CI: 1.37-6.00; P = 0.006), and peripheral artery disease (OR = 4.68 95% CI: 1.12-19.1; P = 0.030). The occurrence of this complication was similar between primary DCAA (11%) and salvage DCAA (8%), ( P = 0.289).Preservation of bowel continuity was reached 3 years after DCAA in 74% of the cohort (primary DCAA: 77% vs salvage DCAA: 68%, P = 0.031). Among patients with a DCAA mannered without diverting stoma, 75% (301/403) have never required a stoma at the last follow-up. CONCLUSIONS: DCAA makes it possible to definitively avoid a stoma in 75% of patients when mannered initially without a stoma and to save bowel continuity in 68% of the patients in the setting of failure of primary pelvic surgery.
RESUMEN
AIM: The long-term urological sequelae after iatrogenic ureteral injury (IUI) during colorectal surgery are not clearly known. The aims of this work were to report the incidence of IUI and to analyse the long-term consequences of urological late complications and their impact on oncological results of IUI occurring during colorectal surgery through a French multicentric experience (GRECCAR group). METHOD: All the patients who presented with IUI during colorectal surgery between 2010 and 2019 were retrospectively included. Patients with ureteral involvement needing en bloc resection, delayed ureteral stricture or noncolorectal surgery were not considered. RESULTS: A total of 202 patients (93 men, mean age 63 ± 14 years) were identified in 29 centres, corresponding to 0.32% of colorectal surgeries (n = 63 562). Index colorectal surgery was mainly oncological (n = 130, 64%). IUI was diagnosed postoperatively in 112 patients (55%) after a mean delay of 11 ± 9 days. Intraoperative diagnosis of IUI was significantly associated with shorter length of stay (21 ± 22 days vs. 34 ± 22 days, p < 0.0001), lower rates of postoperative hydronephrosis (2% vs. 10%, p = 0.04), anastomotic complication (7% vs. 22.5%, p = 0.002) and thromboembolic event (0% vs. 6%, p = 0.02) than postoperative diagnosis of IUI. Delayed chemotherapy because of IUI was reported in 27% of patients. At the end of the follow-up [3 ± 2.6 years (1 month-13 years)], 72 patients presented with urological sequalae (36%). Six patients (3%) required a nephrectomy. CONCLUSION: IUI during colorectal surgery has few consequences for the patients if recognized early. Long-term urological sequelae can occur in a third of patients. IUI may affect oncological outcomes in colorectal surgery by delaying adjuvant chemotherapy, especially when the ureteral injury is not diagnosed peroperatively.

AIM: In cases of anastomotic failure after colorectal (CRA) or coloanal anastomosis (CAA), revision of the anastomosis is an ambitious surgical option that can be proposed in order to maintain bowel continuity. Our aim was to assess postoperative morbidity, risk of failure and risk factor for failure in patients after CRA or CAA. METHODS: All consecutive patients who underwent redo-CRA/CAA in our institution between 2007-2018 were retrospectively included. The success of redo-CRA/CAA was defined by the restoration of bowel continuity 12 months after the surgery. RESULTS: Two hundred patients (114 male: 57%) were analyzed. The indication for redo-CRA/CAA was chronic pelvic infection in 74 patients (37%), recto-vaginal or urinary fistula in 59 patients (30%), anastomotic stenosis in 36 patients (18%) and redo anastomosis after previous anastomosis takedown in 31 patients (15%). Twenty-three percent of the patients developed a severe postoperative complication. Anastomotic leakage was diagnosed in 39 patients (20%). One-year-success of the redo-CRA/CAA was obtained in 80% of patients. In multivariate analysis, only obesity was associated with redo-CRA/CAA failure (p = 0.042). We elaborated a pre-operative predictive score of success using the four variables: male sex, age > 60 years, obesity and history of pelvic radiotherapy. The success of redo-CRA/CAA was 92%, 86%, 80% and 62% for a preoperative predictive score value of 0, 1, 2 and ≥3, respectively (p = 0.010). CONCLUSIONS: In case of failure of primary CRA/CAA, bowel continuity can be saved in 4 out of 5 patients by redo-CRA/CAA despite 23% suffering severe postoperative morbidity.

Fistulizing anoperineal lesions are severe complications of Crohn's disease (CD) that affect quality of life with a long-term risk of anal sphincter destruction, incontinence, permanent stoma, and anal cancer. Despite several surgical procedures, they relapse in about two-thirds of patients, mandating innovative treatments. Ultrasmall particles of iron oxide (USPIO) have been described to achieve in vivo rapid healing of deep wounds in the skin and liver of rats thanks to their nanobridging capability that could be adapted to fistula treatment. Our main purpose was to highlight preclinical data with USPIO for the treatment of perianal fistulizing CD. Twenty male Sprague Dawley rats with severe 2,4,6-trinitrobenzenesulfonic acid solution (TNBS)-induced proctitis were operated to generate two perianal fistulas per rat. At day 35, two inflammatory fistulas were obtained per rat and perineal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was performed. After a baseline MRI, a fistula tract was randomly drawn and topically treated either with saline or with USPIO for 1 min (n = 17 for each). The rats underwent a perineal MRI on postoperative days (POD) 1, 4, and 7 and were sacrificed for pathological examination. The primary outcome was the filling or closure of the fistula tract, including the external or internal openings. USPIO treatment allowed the closure and/or filling of all the treated fistulas from its application until POD 7 in comparison with the control fistulas (23%). The treatment with USPIO was safe, permanently closed the fistula along its entire length, including internal and external orifices, and paved new avenues for the treatment of perianal fistulizing Crohn's disease.

The cecal appendix had been considered as a useless vestige since Darwin's work, but recent research questioned this idea demonstrating that the cecal appendix appeared among the mammals at least 80 million years ago and has made multiple and independent appearances without any obvious correlation with diet, social life, ecology, or size of the cecum. However, functions and probable selective advantage conferred by this anatomical structure still remain enigmatic. We found, through analyses of data on 258 mammalian species, that cecal appendix presence is correlated with increased maximal observed longevity. This is the first demonstration of a correlation between cecal appendix presence and life history. Interestingly, the classical evolutionary theory of aging that predicts an increased longevity when the extrinsic mortality is reduced has been questioned several times, but recent comparative studies asserted its validity in the taxa, which experience age-dependent and density-dependent mortality, as in mammals. Thus, the cecal appendix may contribute to the increase in longevity through a reduction of extrinsic mortality. A lower risk of fatal infectious diarrhea is one of the most plausible hypotheses that could explain it. However, several hypotheses coexist about the possible functions of the cecal appendix, and our results provide new insights about this much-disputed question. In addition, we show that the cecal appendix arose at least 16 times and was lost only once during the evolutionary history of the considered mammals, an asymmetry that supports the existence of a positive selective of this structure.

PURPOSE: The reduction of length of hospitalization without compromising the patient's safety constitutes the challenge of the enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) programs. Our aim was to evaluate the feasibility and safety of a 3-day hospitalization after colectomy and 5-day hospitalization after proctectomy in the setting of an ERAS program. METHODS: An ERAS program was prospectively proposed to all patients who required a colorectal resection (January 2014-December 2018) with a 3- or 5-day discharge objective. The success of the program was defined by a 3-/5-day hospitalization without complications and without readmissions. RESULTS: Among 283 patients included, 232 patients had a colectomy (82%) and 51 (18%) patients a proctectomy. Eighty-six patients experienced complications (30%) including fifteen severe complications (5%). Mean hospital stay was 5.1 ± 3.7 (2-33) days. A total of 136 patients (48%) were discharged at 3-/5-day, within 9 were readmitted (3%). Discharge was delayed after 3-/5-day for complications (n = 65, 23%), CRP > 120 (n = 45, 16%) or refusal without medical reason (n = 37, 13%). The success rate of the program was 45% (n = 127). This success rate was similar between colectomy and proctectomy (p = 0.277) and between right and left colectomy (p = 0.450). In multivariate analysis, predictive factors associated with the program success were intraoperative use of lidocaine (OR 2.1 [1.1-4.1], p = 0.022), time to remove perfusion ≤ 2 days (OR 10.3 [5.4-19.6], p = 0.001), time to recover bowel movement ≤ 2 days (OR 4.0 [1.7-9.6], p = 0.002) and time to walk out of the room ≤ 2 days (OR 2.6 [1.1-6.0], p = 0.022). CONCLUSION: Integrating a realistic hospitalization duration objective into an ERAS program guarantees its safety, feasibility and effectiveness in reducing hospitalization duration.

BACKGROUND: Patients with familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) carry a risk of duodenal adenocarcinoma. These patients, who already have an ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (IPAA), sometimes require pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD). This work aims to evaluate the long-term consequences of the combination of PD + IPAA. METHODS: All patients with IPAA due to FAP who underwent PD from 1991 to 2017 were included (PD + IPAA group). Patients were matched 1:1 according to age, sex, ASA score and presence of colorectal cancer. Fecal continence and quality of life (QoL) were assessed using the Wexner score and the EORTC-QLQ-C30 questionnaire. RESULTS: Thirty-two PD + IPAA patients were matched with thirty-two IPAA-only patients. In each group, the response rate to the questionnaire was 78% (25/32). No differences were noted between PD + IPAA and IPAA-only groups in terms of daytime fecal frequency (6.0 vs 6.0; p = 0.362), Wexner score (3/20 vs 4/20; p = 0.984) and global QoL score (83.3/100 vs 83.3/100; p = 0.401). In the PD + IPAA group, 26% of patients developed diabetes a median period of 10.0 years after PD. The global QoL for these patients was significantly altered (p = 0.011), while daytime fecal frequency was unaffected (p = 0.092) as fecal continence (p = 0.475). CONCLUSION: In FAP patients with IPAA, PD does not affect bowel function or QoL.

BACKGROUND: This study aimed to evaluate the controversial benefit of a pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) in patients with PALN metastasis intraoperatively detected by systematic frozen section examination in pancreatic adenocarcinoma. METHODS: PALN intraoperative examination by frozen section was systematically performed from January 2006 to February 2018 prior to performing PD for pancreatic adenocarcinoma. Until June 2012, PALN + patients still underwent PD (PALN+/PD group) in the framework of a prospective study. Since July 2012, PALN+ was considered as contraindicating the planned PD (PALN+/No-PD group). Post-operative morbidity and survival were compared between these two groups. RESULTS: Of the 32 PALN + patients intraoperatively detected, the first 13 underwent a PD, while the last 19 did not undergo resection. Seven patients (54%) among 13 PALN+/PD patients developed a post-operative complication against 3 (16%) among 19 PALN+/No-PD patients (p = 0.049). The median length of stay was 5 days longer for PALN+/PD patients (p = 0.001). The median survival did not differ between PALN+/No-PD and PALN+/PD groups (respectively 13.4 months (95%CI:7.6-19.3) and 11.5 months (95%CI:5.9-17.1), p = 0.471). No patient was alive 4 years after surgery in both the PALN+/No-PD or PALN+/PD groups. CONCLUSION: In case of PALN detected intraoperatively in pancreatic adenocarcinoma, PD does not improve survival compared to current palliative treatment.

BACKGROUND: Although splenectomy is recommended during resection for left-sided resectable pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) to perform lymphadenectomy of station 10 (splenic hilum), no level I evidence justifies this procedure. This study aims to evaluate the rate of lymph node (LN) and contiguous involvement of the splenic hilum in resectable distal PDAC. METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed all patients who underwent splenopancreatectomy for PDAC in the past 10 years. Station 10 LN were routinely isolated, and all corresponding microscopic slides were reinterpreted by a pathologist. The computed tomography (CT) results of patients with tumoral involvement of the spleen or splenic hilum by contiguity (TISOSH) and ≤ 10 mm between the tumor and spleen on pathology were blindly reviewed by two radiologists to evaluate CT for diagnosis of TISOSH. RESULTS: We included 110 consecutive patients, including 104 with analyzable station 10 LN. The tumor was N+ in 58 (53%) patients. The median number of LN identified at station 10 was 2.0 ± 3.0. No station 10 LNs were detected in 42 (40%) patients. No patients had tumor-positive LN at station 10. TISOSH was found in nine (8%) patients, and was significantly associated with tail location (p = 0.001), tumor size (p = 0.005), and multivisceral involvement (p = 0.015). For diagnosis of TISOSH, the sensitivity and specificity of CT were respectively 89% and 95% for radiologist 1 and 89% and 100% for radiologist 2. CONCLUSIONS: Splenic preservation during resection of distal PDAC may be an option in selected patients with body tumors and no suspected splenic or splenic hilum involvement on preoperative CT.

BACKGROUND: The American College of surgical risk calculator (SRC) score has never been validated specifically for surgery in emergency. The objective was to evaluate the reliability of this calculator in patients with malignant colon obstruction. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We retrospectively have analyzed the morbidity and mortality observed in operated patients. Risk factors for postoperative morbidity and mortality were analyzed by logistic regression model. We have compared the morbidity and mortality estimated by the SRC score with that observed using the Brier Score (BS). A BS of 0 indicated perfect prediction, whereas a BS of 1 indicated the poorest prediction. RESULTS: Sixty-nine patients aged 75 y (41-93) have been operated on emergency from November 2001 to August 2015. The tumor was localized in the sigmoid in 33 cases (48%), in the splenic flexure in nine cases (13%), and in the right colon in 17 cases (25%). The surgical procedures were as follows: right colectomy with anastomosis (29%), diverting proximal iliac colostomy (23%), and subtotal colectomy with anastomosis (19%). The SRC score indicated a good predictivity for mortality (9.8% predicted versus 8.7% observed, BS = 0.058), for morbidity (33.4% versus 40.6%, BS = 0.209), and for serious morbidity (25.5% versus 17.4%, BS = 0.131). In multivariate analysis, SRC was an independent risk factor for mortality (P = 0.030 odds ratio [OR] = 1.07 [1.01-1.15]) and morbidity (P = 0.001 OR = 1.16 [1.08-1.27]). CONCLUSIONS: SRC score is a reliable tool for assessing the morbidity and mortality of obstructive colon cancer and could help with adapting the surgical gesture to the risks predicted.

BACKGROUND: The prognostic value of splenic vessel involvement in distal pancreatic adenocarcinoma remains controversial. The aim of the study was to assess its prognostic relevance in a large multicenter cohort. METHODS: Patients who underwent pancreatosplenectomy for distal pancreatic adenocarcinoma were identified from 5 pancreatic surgical centers. A pathology review of the surgical specimens was performed to assess splenic vessel involvement, defined as invasion of the vessel's adventitia or deeper, and confirm the presence of splenic vein tumor thrombosis. Prognostic factors associated with overall and relapse-free survival were evaluated. RESULTS: 149 patients underwent upfront surgery. Splenic vascular involvement was observed in 69 of them (46.3%). A parietal infiltration of the splenic artery or splenic vein was observed in 26 (17.5%) and 49 patients (32.8%), respectively. A pathologic tumor thrombosis of the splenic vein was identified in 22 patients (14.8%) and associated with larger tumors (>20 mm) (P = .023), more perineural (P = .017), and lymphovascular (P = .002) invasion, and more positive lymph node (P = .001). After a median follow-up of 50.8 months (95% confidence interval: 44.3-57.3), the cumulative 5-year overall and relapse-free survival were 46.2% and 33%, respectively. In multivariate analysis, in addition to lymph node metastasis (hazard ratio = 1.8; 95% confidence interval [1.1-3.1]; P = .023) and perineural invasion (hazard ratio = 3.5; 95% confidence interval [1.3-9.7]; P = .016), presence of splenic vein tumor thrombosis was the only splenic vascular involvement that affected independently the overall survival (HR = 2.3; 95% confidence interval [ 1.3-4.3]; P = .006). CONCLUSION: In resectable distal pancreatic adenocarcinoma, a pathologic tumor thrombosis of the splenic vein is an independent prognostic factor of overall survival. To define the perioperative oncological strategy, a preoperative evaluation of splenic vessel involvement and thrombosis is needed.

AIM: Digestive stoma are frequently performed. The last French guidelines have been published twenty years ago. Our aim was to update French clinical practice guidelines for the perioperative management of digestive stoma and stoma-related complications. METHODS: A systematic literature review of French and English articles published between January 2000 and May 2022 was performed. Only digestive stoma for fecal evacuation in adults were considered. Stoma in children, urinary stoma, digestive stoma for enteral nutrition, and rare stoma (Koch, perineal) were not included. RESULTS: Guidelines include the surgical landmarks to create digestive stoma (ideal location, mucocutaneous anastomosis, utility of support rods, use of prophylactic mesh), the perioperative clinical practice guidelines (patient education, preoperative ostomy site marking, postoperative equipment, prescriptions, and follow-up), the management of early stoma-related complications (difficulties for nursing, high output, stoma necrosis, retraction, abscess and peristomal skin complications), and the management of late stoma-related complications (stoma prolapse, parastomal hernia, stoma stenosis, late stoma retraction). A level of evidence was assigned to each statement. CONCLUSION: These guidelines will be very useful in clinical practice, and allow to delete some outdated dogma.

Increased severity or recurrence risk of some specific infectious diarrhea, such a salmonellosis or Clostridium difficile colitis, have been reported after an appendectomy in human patients. While several other mammals also possess an appendix, the suspected protective function against diarrhea conferred by this structure is known only in humans. From a retrospective collection of veterinary records of 1251 primates attributed to 45 species, including 13 species with an appendix and 32 without, we identified 2855 episodes of diarrhea, 13% of which were classified as severe diarrhea requiring a therapeutic medication or associated with a fatal issue. We identified a lower risk of severe diarrhea among primate species with an appendix, especially in the early part of life when the risk of diarrhea is maximal. Moreover, we observed a delayed onset of diarrhea and of severe diarrhea in species possessing an appendix. Interestingly, none of the primates with an appendix were diagnosed, treated or died of an acute appendicitis during the 20 years of veterinarian follow-up. These results clarify the function of the appendix among primates, as protection against diarrhea. This supports its presumed function in humans and is congruent with the existence of a selective advantage conferred by this structure.

BACKGROUND & AIMS: Although appendectomy may reduce colorectal inflammation in patients with ulcerative colitis (UC), this surgical procedure has been suggested to be associated with an increased risk of colitis-associated cancer (CAC). Our aim was to explore the mechanism underlying the appendectomy-associated increased risk of CAC. METHODS: Five-week-old male BALB/c mice underwent appendectomy, appendicitis induction, or sham laparotomy. They were then exposed to azoxymethane/dextran sodium sulfate (AOM/DSS) to induce CAC. Mice were killed 12 weeks later, and colons were taken for pathological analysis and immunohistochemistry (CD3 and CD8 staining). Human colonic tumors from 21 patients with UC who underwent surgical resection for CAC were immunophenotyped and stratified according to appendectomy status. RESULTS: Whereas appendectomy significantly reduced colitis severity and increased CAC number, appendicitis induction without appendectomy led to opposite results. Intratumor CD3+ and CD8+ T-cell densities were lower after appendectomy and higher after appendicitis induction compared with the sham laparotomy group. Blocking lymphocyte trafficking to the colon with the anti-α4ß7 integrin antibody or a sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor agonist suppressed the inducing effect of the appendectomy on tumors' number and on CD3+/CD8+ intratumoral density. CD8+ or CD3+ T cells isolated from inflammatory neo-appendix and intravenously injected into AOM/DSS-treated recipient mice increased CD3+/CD8+ T-cell tumor infiltration and decreased tumor number. In UC patients with a history of appendectomy, intratumor CD3+ and CD8+ T-cell densities were decreased compared with UC patients without history of appendectomy. CONCLUSIONS: In UC, appendectomy could suppress a major site of T-cell priming, resulting in a less efficient CAC immunosurveillance.

BACKGROUND: A better understanding of pathological features and oncological survival in ypT0 rectal cancer after neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy is required to improve patient selection criteria for rectal-preserving approach by local excision. Our aim was to define risk of lymph node metastasis and oncological outcomes in ypT0 rectal cancer after chemoradiotherapy and total mesorectal excision. METHODS: All consecutive patients who underwent total mesorectal excision for a nonmetastatic rectal adenocarcinoma classified ypT0 after neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy, with or without locoregional lymph node involvement (ypN+ or ypN-), in 14 French academic centers between 2002 and 2015 were included. Data were collected retrospectively. Overall and disease-free survival were explored. RESULTS: Among the 383 ypT0 patients, 6% were ypN+ (23/283). Before chemoradiotherapy, 86% (327/380) were staged cT3-T4 and 41% (156/378) were staged cN+. The risk of ypN+ did not differ between cT3-T4 and cT1-T2 patients (P = .345) or between cN+ and cN- patients (P = .384). After a median follow-up of 61.1 months, we observed 95% confidence interval (92%-97%) of 5-year overall survival and 93% confidence interval (91%-96%) of 5-year disease-free survival. In Cox multivariate analysis, overall survival was altered by intra-abdominal septic complications (hazard ratio = 2.53, confidence interval [1.11-5.78], P = .028). Regarding disease-free survival, ypN+ status and administration of adjuvant chemotherapy were associated with a reduced disease-free survival (P = .001 for both). cT3/T4 staging and cN+ staging did not modify overall survival (P = .332 and P = .450) nor disease-free survival (P = .862 and P = .124). CONCLUSION: The risk of lymph node metastasis and the oncological survival do not depend on the initial cT or cN staging in cases of ypT0 complete rectal tumor regression.
