RESUMEN
INTRODUCTION: Intestinal stomas are one of the most common parts of pediatric surgical care, and complications arising from it have significant impact on overall patient outcomes. However, data on major complications in low-middle-income countries remain limited. This pilot retrospective cohort study aimed to investigate the prevalence, types, and management of major stoma complications in pediatric patients at a tertiary government hospital in the Philippines. METHODS: Medical records of pediatric patients with major stoma complications classified as Clavien-Dindo III-V from June 2018 to June 2023 were reviewed. Patient-related factors (age, sex, diagnosis) and surgery-related factors (stoma type and location, surgeon expertise) were analyzed. Descriptive statistics characterized demographic profiles, while Chi-square and t tests analyzed categorical and continuous variables, respectively. Multivariable logistic regression evaluated independent associations with major stoma complications. RESULTS: Out of 1041 pediatric patients with stomas, 102 cases had major complications, representing a prevalence rate of 9.8%. Mortality directly attributed to stoma complications accounted for 1.3% of the total cases, or 14 deaths in 5 years. Neonates comprised a significant portion, primarily diagnosed with congenital conditions like anorectal malformation and Hirschsprung's disease. Ileostomies exhibited a higher incidence of major complications compared to other stoma types. Stomal prolapse and adhesive bowel obstruction are the most common reported stoma complications requiring surgical intervention while stoma revision is the most frequent corrective procedure. The median time from stoma creation to presentation of major complication was 14 months, with nearly half of the complications occurring within the first year. Only the presence of ileostomy had significant association with the development of major complications among the risk factors analyzed. CONCLUSIONS: This study provides useful insights into stoma complications in pediatric patients in a low-middle income country. Despite the lack of significant associations between the patient-related and surgeon-related factors, and major stoma complications, further investigation into other contributing factors is warranted. Improvements in data collection methods and prospective studies with larger sample sizes are recommended to enhance understanding and optimize care of major stoma complications. Addressing the challenges identified in this study could lead to a comprehensive and tailored approach to pediatric stoma care and their complications.

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.

BACKGROUND: Acute complicated diverticulitis poses a substantial burden to individual patients and the health care system. A significant proportion of the cases necessitate emergency operations. The choice between Hartmann's procedure and primary anastomosis with diverting loop ileostomy remains controversial. METHODS: Using American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program patient user file data from 2012 to 2020, patients undergoing Hartmann's procedure and primary anastomosis with diverting loop ileostomy for nonelective sigmoidectomy for complicated diverticulitis were identified. Major adverse events, 30-day mortality, perioperative complications, operative duration, reoperation, and 30-day readmissions were assessed. RESULTS: Of 16,921 cases, 6.3% underwent primary anastomosis with diverting loop ileostomy, showing a rising trend from 5.3% in 2012 to 8.4% in 2020. Primary anastomosis with diverting loop ileostomy patients, compared to Hartmann's procedure, had similar demographics and fewer severe comorbidities. Primary anastomosis with diverting loop ileostomy exhibited lower rates of major adverse events (24.6% vs 29.3%, P = .001). After risk adjustment, primary anastomosis with diverting loop ileostomy had similar risks of major adverse events and 30-day mortality compared to Hartmann's procedure. While having lower odds of respiratory (adjusted odds ratio 0.61, 95% confidence interval 0.45-0.83) and infectious (adjusted odds ratio 0.78, 95% confidence interval 0.66-0.93) complications, primary anastomosis with diverting loop ileostomy was associated with a 36-minute increment in operative duration and increased odds of 30-day readmission (adjusted odds ratio 1.30, 95% confidence interval 1.07-1.57) compared to Hartmann's procedure. CONCLUSION: Primary anastomosis with diverting loop ileostomy displayed comparable odds of major adverse events compared to Hartmann's procedure in acute complicated diverticulitis while mitigating infectious and respiratory complication risks. However, primary anastomosis with diverting loop ileostomy was associated with longer operative times and greater odds of 30-day readmission. Evolving guidelines and increasing primary anastomosis with diverting loop ileostomy use suggest a shift favoring primary anastomosis, especially in complicated diverticulitis. Future investigation of disparities in surgical approaches and patient outcomes is warranted to optimize acute diverticulitis care pathways.

RESUMEN Antecedentes: la reconstrucciónn del tránsito intestinal luego de una operación de Hartmann es un procedimiento habitualmente complejo y con alta morbilidad. Objetivo: analizar la tasa de reconstrucción después de la cirugía de Hartmann y resultados posoperatorios en nuestra experiencia. Material y métodos: análisis retrospectivo de pacientes a los que se les practicó la reconstrucción del tránsito intestinal posterior a una cirugía de Hartmann en un período 16 años. Revisamos la bibliografía y nuestra base de datos. Luego traspasamos la información disponible a una grilla de datos construida con variables habitualmente analizadas en la literatura. Finalmente, analizamos los resultados mediante medidas básicas de tendencia central. Resultados: en 16 años realizamos 92 operaciones de Hartmann, de las cuales 69 (75%) llegaron a la reconstrucción. Edad promedio: 58 años. El 52% de los pacientes fueron hombres. La operación de Hartmann fue de urgencia en el 48% y 58% resultaron malignas. Tiempo transcurrido hasta la reconstrucción: en promedio, 9 meses, y el 90% (N 62) de los casos se realizó por vía laparoscópica. Morbilidad general 38% y ajustada a los grados III y IV de Clavien-Dindo fue 11,5%. No hubo mortalidad. Conclusión: los resultados obtenidos son semejantes a los publicados y nuestra experiencia nos motiva a continuar eligiendo el abordaje laparoscópico.
ABSTRACT Background: Background: Stoma reversal after Hartman's operation is usually a complex procedure and is associated high morbidity. Objective: To analyze the rate of reversal after the Hartmann's procedure and the postoperative outcomes in our experience. Material and methods: We conducted a retrospective analysis of patients undergoing reversal after the Hartmann's procedure over a 16-year period with review of the literature and of our database and transferred the available information to a data grid constructed with variables commonly analyzed in the literature. Finally, we analyzed the results using basic measures of central tendency. Results: Over a 16-year period, we performed 92 Hartmann's operations; 69 (75%) reached the reversal stage. Mean age was 58 years and 52% were men. Forty-eight percent of the Hartmann's procedures were emergency surgeries and 58% were due to cancer. Mean time to reversal was 9 months and 90% (n = 62) were laparoscopic procedures. Overall morbidity and adjusted for complications grade III and IV of the Clavien-Dindo classification were 38% and 11.5%, respectively. None of the patients died. Conclusion: The results obtained are similar to those published and our experience motivates us to continue choosing the laparoscopic approach.

BACKGROUND: Fecal diversion after ileal pouch anal anastomosis (IPAA) in children with ulcerative colitis (UC) remains controversial. We hypothesize that a modified two-stage IPAA omitting diverting ileostomy (DI) after IPAA, found to be safe in adults, would produce similar results in children. METHODS: Retrospective, single-institution study of children (≤18 years) undergoing staged total proctocolectomy with IPAA from 2014 to 2020. Traditional two-stage and three-stage approaches including DI after IPAA were compared to two-stage approach without DI. RESULTS: 32 patients were included; of these, 7 (22%), 14 (44%), and 11 (34%) patients underwent traditional two-stage, modified two-stage, or three-stage IPAA, respectively. Following IPAA, modified two-stage patients had shorter operative time, decreased opioid utilization, quicker return to regular diet, and shorter stoma duration. After IPAA, there was similar postoperative length of stay, complication rates, readmissions, visits to the emergency department, or unplanned return to the operating room (OR) within 30 days. Anastomotic leak occurred in 2 patients; both were managed nonoperatively without evidence of pouch dysfunction. CONCLUSION: Modified two-stage IPAA with omission of DI after the IPAA stage is safe to perform in pediatric UC patients. Prospective studies with larger sample sizes are needed to identify risk factors associated with operative complications.

INTRODUCTION: Knowing the natural history of ulcerative colitis (UC) is essential to understand the course of the disease, assess the impact of different treatment strategies and identify poor prognostic factors. One of the most significant matters in this regard is the need for surgery. OBJECTIVES: To analyse the Colectomy Incidence Rate (CIR) from diagnosis to end of follow-up (31/12/2017) and identify predictive factors for colectomy. MATERIAL AND METHODS: A retrospective study enrolling patients with a definitive diagnosis (DD) of UC or Unclassified Colitis (UnC) in the 2001-03 Navarra cohort. RESULTS: We enrolled 174 patients with a DD of UC (E2 42.8%; E3 26.6%) and 5 patients with a DD of UnC: 44.1% women, median age 39.2 years (range 7-88) and median follow-up 15.7 years. A total of 8 patients underwent surgery (CIR 3 colectomies/103 patient-years: 3 at initial diagnosis (<1 month), 2 in the first 2 years, 2 at 5 years from diagnosis and 1 at 12 years from diagnosis. All had previously received steroids; 5 had received immunomodulators and 2 had received biologics. In 7 patients (87%), surgery was performed on an emergency basis. The indication was megacolon in 3 (37.5%), severe flare-up in 3 (37.5%) and medical treatment failure in 2 (25%). In 5 cases (62.5%), an ileoanal pouch was made, and in 3 cases, a definitive ileostomy was performed. In the univariate analysis, patients with loss of more than 5 kg at diagnosis and admission at diagnosis had a lower rate of colectomy-free survival. CONCLUSIONS: In our series, colectomy rates are lower than usually reported. Most colectomies were performed in the first 5 years following diagnosis and had an emergency indication.

BACKGROUND: Ileoanal pouch anastomosis is the surgical treatment of choice for patients with intractable ulcerative colitis. Perianal disease is a feature that is often present in Crohn's disease and infrequently in ulcerative colitis. OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study is to identify the incidence and factors associated with the development of postoperative perianal fistula in patients undergoing ileoanal pouch anastomosis for ulcerative colitis. DESIGN: A prospectively collected database at the time of surgery with subsequent follow-up was utilized. SETTING: The study was conducted at a high-volume single institution. PATIENTS: We studied a series of 475 consecutive patients with preoperative diagnosis of ulcerative colitis who underwent ileoanal pouch anastomosis. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The incidence of postoperative perianal fistula and the factors correlating with its development were primary outcome measures of the study. RESULTS: The overall number of patients developing perianal fistulas was 44 of 475 (9%). Eleven patients with perianal fistula (25%) required return to ileostomy, of which 7 had pouch excision. Patients who developed a postoperative perianal fistula had a younger age at the onset of disease, had a lower age at index surgery, and were more likely to be subsequently classified as indeterminate colitis or Crohn's disease. Patients developing perianal fistulas were also more likely to develop partial dehiscence or stricture of the ileoanal anastomosis. LIMITATIONS: This study spans nearly 40 years during which the surgical procedure evolved. CONCLUSIONS: Young age at the onset of disease, lower age at surgery, and postoperative diagnosis of Crohn's disease and indeterminate colitis were the factors correlating with perianal fistulas. Delayed healing of the ileoanal anastomosis with partial separation and/or stricture also correlated with the onset of perianal fistulas. The severity of rectal inflammation at the time of surgery or the presence of stapled versus handsewn anastomosis did not correlate with the development of perianal fistulas.

FSTULA PERIANAL POSTERIOR A RESERVORIO ILEOANAL EN PACIENTES CON COLITIS ULCERATIVA UNA REVISIN DE PACIENTES OPERADOS EN UN CENTRO PRINCIPAL DE EII: ANTECEDENTES:El reservorio ileoanal es el tratamiento quirúrgico de elección para los pacientes con colitis ulcerativa intratable. La enfermedad perianal es una característica que a menudo está presente en la enfermedad de Crohn y con poca frecuencia en la colitis ulcerativa.OBJETIVO:El objetivo del estudio es identificar la incidencia y los factores asociados con el desarrollo de fístula perianal posoperatoria en pacientes sometidos a reservorio ileoanal por colitis ulcerativa.DISEÑO:Base de datos recopilada prospectivamente en el momento de la cirugía con seguimiento subsecuente.ENTORNO CLÍNICO:El estudio se llevó a cabo en una única institución de gran volumen.PACIENTES:Estudiamos una serie de 475 pacientes consecutivos con diagnóstico preoperatorio de colitis ulcerativa a los que se les realizó reservorio ileoanal.PRINCIPALES MEDIDAS DE VALORACIÓN:La incidencia de fístula perianal posoperatoria y los factores que se correlacionan con su desarrollo fueron las principales medidas de resultado del estudio.RESULTADOS:El número total de pacientes que desarrollaron fístulas perianales fue 44 de 475 (9%). Once pacientes con fístula perianal (25%) requirieron volver a la ileostomía, de los cuales 7 tuvieron resección del reservorio. Los pacientes que desarrollaron fístula perianal posoperatoria tenían edad más temprana al inicio de la enfermedad, menor edad en el momento de la cirugía inicial y tenían más probabilidades de ser clasificados posteriormente como colitis indeterminada o enfermedad de Crohn. Los pacientes que desarrollaron fístulas perianales también fueron más propensos a desarrollar dehiscencia parcial o estenosis de la anastomosis ileoanal.LIMITACIONES:Este estudio abarca casi 40 años durante los cuales ha evolucionado el procedimiento quirúrgico.CONCLUSIONES:Edad temprana al inicio de la enfermedad, menor edad al momento de la cirugía, diagnóstico postoperatorio de enfermedad de Crohn y colitis indeterminada fueron los factores que se correlacionaron con las fístulas perianales. El retraso en la cicatrización de la anastomosis ileoanal con separación parcial y/o estenosis también se correlacionó con la aparición de fístulas perianales. La gravedad de la inflamación rectal en el momento de la cirugía o la presencia de anastomosis con grapas versus anastomosis manual no se correlacionó con el desarrollo de fístulas perianales.

OBJECTIVE: To determine the performance and user experience of a novel ostomy barrier ring over a 4-week period. METHODS: This single-arm investigation conducted across three clinical sites included 25 adult participants with an ileostomy for 3 months or longer. The participants used their standard ostomy pouching appliance along with a novel barrier ring for a period of 4 weeks. Skin condition was assessed using the Ostomy Skin Tool. Change in skin condition over the study period was recorded for each participant. The participants' experience in using the novel barrier ring was measured using a five-point Likert-type scale. RESULTS: Twenty of the 25 participants (80%) completed the trial. Of those participants, the median Ostomy Skin Tool score at both the beginning (range, 0-8) and end was 0 (range, 0-6). In terms of skin condition, 7 participants experienced an improvement in skin condition, 11 experienced no change, and 2 got worse. A median score of 5 out of 5 was recorded for all questions relating to user experience. CONCLUSIONS: Although not statistically significant, there was a clear trend toward improvements in peristomal skin condition using the novel barrier ring, even for participants who were already using a barrier ring. User feedback was positive with respect to comfort, device handling, and the perception of the device's ability to protect the skin. Further, most participants who already used a barrier ring indicated that the novel barrier ring would result in a longer wear time.

OBJECTIVE: to establish the epidemiological profile of ostomized patients treated at the Health Care Service for Ostomy Patients in Juiz de Fora and region (SASPO/JF) and to quantify the pathologies that led to the stoma as well as the ostomy-related complications. METHOD: a retrospective study was carried out with the analysis of 496 medical records of patients registered at HCSOP/JF over 30 years and who remained in at the service in June 2018. The following variables were considered: age, sex, pathology that led to the stoma, type, time, location and complications of stomas. RESULTS: 53.43% were male patients and 46.57% female. The average age was 56.24 years among men and 58.40 years among women. Eight patients had two types of ostomies simultaneously and a total of 504 ostomies were as follows: 340 colostomies (67.46%), 117 ileostomies (23.21%) and 47 urostomies (9.33%). Additionally, 47.65% of the colostomies and 76.92% of the ileostomies were temporary, while all urostomies were permanent. In 70.24% of cases, the reason for making the stoma was malignancy. There were 277 stomas with one or more complications (54.96%). CONCLUSIONS: most of the ostomized patients were over 50 years old and the main diagnosis that led to the stoma was malignancy. Ileostomies had a higher percentage of complications than colostomies and urostomies and, for all types of stomas, the most frequent complication was dermatitis.

BACKGROUND: To avoid a permanent stoma, restorative surgery is performed after the colectomy. Previous studies have shown that less than half of patients with ulcerative colitis undergo restorative surgery. OBJECTIVE: The primary aim was to explore the association between socioeconomic status and restorative surgery after colectomy. DESIGN: This was a nationwide register-based cohort study. SETTINGS: The study was conducted in Sweden. PATIENTS: All Swedish patients with ulcerative colitis who underwent colectomy between 1990 and 2017 at the age of 15 to 69 years were included. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The main outcome was restorative surgery, and the secondary outcome was failure of the reconstruction (defined as the need for a new ileostomy after the reconstruction or nonreversal of a defunctioning stoma within 2 years of the reconstruction). To calculate HRs for restorative surgery after colectomy, as well as failure after restorative surgery, multivariable Cox regression models were performed (adjusted for sex, year of colectomy, colorectal cancer diagnosis, education, civil status, country of birth, income (quartiles 1 to 4, where Q4 represents highest income), hospital volume, and stratified by age). RESULTS: In all, 5969 patients with ulcerative colitis underwent colectomy, and of those, 2794 (46.8%) underwent restorative surgery. Restorative surgery was more common in patients with a high income at the time of colectomy (quartile 1, reference; quartile 2, 1.09 (0.98-1.21); quartile 3, 1.20 (1.07-1.34); quartile 4, 1.27 (1.13-1.43)) and less common in those born in a Nordic country than in immigrants born in a non-Nordic country (0.86 (0.74-0.99)), whereas no association was seen with educational level and civil status. There was no association between socioeconomic status and the risk of failure after restorative surgery. LIMITATIONS: The study was restricted to register data. CONCLUSIONS: Restorative surgery in ulcerative colitis appears to be more common in patients with a high income and patients born in a non-Nordic country, indicating inequality in the provided care.

LA CIRUGA RESTAURADORA ES MS COMN EN PACIENTES CON COLITIS ULCEROSA CON INGRESOS ALTOS UN ESTUDIO POBLACIONAL: ANTECEDENTES:Para evitar un estoma permanente, se realiza una cirugía reparadora después de la colectomía. Estudios anteriores han demostrado que menos de la mitad de los pacientes con colitis ulcerosa se someten a cirugía reconstituyente.OBJETIVO:El objetivo principal fue explorar la asociación entre el nivel socioeconómico y la cirugía reconstituyente después de la colectomía.DISEÑO:Estudio de cohorte basado en registros a nivel nacional.MARCO:Suecia.PACIENTES:Todos los pacientes Suecos con colitis ulcerosa que se sometieron a colectomía desde el 1990 a 2017 a la edad de 15 a 69 años.MEDIDAS DE RESULTADOS PRINCIPALES:El resultado principal fue la cirugía restaurativa y el resultado secundario fue el fracaso de la reconstrucción (definida como la necesidad de una nueva ileostomía después de la reconstrucción o la no-reversión de un estoma disfuncional dentro de los dos años posteriores a la reconstrucción). Para calcular los cocientes de riesgo para la cirugía restauradora después de la colectomía, así como el fracaso después de la cirugía restauradora, se realizaron modelos de regresión de Cox multivariables (ajustados por sexo, año de colectomía, diagnóstico de cáncer colorrectal, educación, estado civil, país de nacimiento e ingresos (cuartiles 1- 4; donde Q4 representa los mayores ingresos), volumen de hospitales y estratificado por edad).RESULTADOS:En total 5969 pacientes con colitis ulcerosa se sometieron a colectomía, y de ellos 2794 (46,8%) se sometieron a cirugía restauradora. La cirugía restauradora fue más común en pacientes con altos ingresos en el momento de la colectomía (referencia del cuartil 1, cuartil 2: 1,09 (0,98-1,21), cuartil 3: 1,20 (1,07-1,34), cuartil 4: 1,27 (1,13-1,43)), y menos común en los nacidos en un país nórdico que en los inmigrantes nacidos en un país no-nórdico (0,86 (0,74-0,99)), mientras que no se observó asociación con el nivel educativo y el estado civil. No hubo asociación entre el nivel socioeconómico y el riesgo de fracaso después de la cirugía reparadora.LIMITACIONES:Restricción para registrar datos.CONCLUSIONES:La cirugía reparadora en colitis ulcerosa parece ser más común en pacientes con ingresos altos y en pacientes nacidos en un país no-nórdico, lo que indica desigualdad en la atención brindada.

BACKGROUND: Anastomotic leaks cause significant patient morbidity that may require redo pelvic surgery. Transanal minimally invasive surgery facilitates direct access to the pelvis with increased visualization and maneuverability for technically difficult redo surgery. OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to assess the feasibility and outcomes of transanal minimally invasive surgery in redo proctectomy for anastomotic complications. DESIGN: This was a retrospective cohort study. SETTINGS: This study was conducted at a single tertiary-care institution. PATIENTS: Consecutive patients undergoing transanal minimally invasive redo proctectomy were included. INTERVENTIONS: Transanal minimally invasive redo proctectomy was performed. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The primary end point was intraoperative feasibility. The secondary end points were safety, perioperative morbidity, and symptom resolution. RESULTS: Seven patients underwent redo proctectomy via transanal minimally invasive surgery for anastomotic defect (n = 6) or stricture (n = 1). Median time from initial to redo operation was 27 months (range, 13-67). Redo proctectomy included redo low anterior resection with coloanal anastomosis and diverting loop ileostomy (n = 4), completion proctectomy with end colostomy (n = 2), and pouch resection with end ileostomy (n = 1). Six patients had an open abdominal approach. There were no conversions for the anal approach. Median operative time was 6.4 hours (range, 4.0-7.1). All 4 planned redo coloanal anastomoses were successfully created. Hospital length of stay was a median of 8 days (interquartile range, 6-9). Intraoperative complications included 2 patients with carbon dioxide emboli, which resolved with supportive care; there was no adjacent organ injury. Three patients were readmitted within 30 days. There were no postoperative anastomotic leaks, and all 4 patients with diverted ileostomies underwent reversal at a median of 4 months (interquartile range, 4-6). All symptoms prompting redo surgery remain resolved at a median follow-up of 20 months. LIMITATIONS: This study was limited by its small sample size and its single-institution focus. CONCLUSION: For those with expertise in transanal surgery, transanal minimally invasive surgery is a safe and effective option for patients with anastomotic failure requiring redo proctectomy because it provides direct access to and visualization of the pelvis.

ABSTRACT Objective: to establish the epidemiological profile of ostomized patients treated at the Health Care Service for Ostomy Patients in Juiz de Fora and region (SASPO/JF) and to quantify the pathologies that led to the stoma as well as the ostomy-related complications. Method: a retrospective study was carried out with the analysis of 496 medical records of patients registered at HCSOP/JF over 30 years and who remained in at the service in June 2018. The following variables were considered: age, sex, pathology that led to the stoma, type, time, location and complications of stomas. Results: 53.43% were male patients and 46.57% female. The average age was 56.24 years among men and 58.40 years among women. Eight patients had two types of ostomies simultaneously and a total of 504 ostomies were as follows: 340 colostomies (67.46%), 117 ileostomies (23.21%) and 47 urostomies (9.33%). Additionally, 47.65% of the colostomies and 76.92% of the ileostomies were temporary, while all urostomies were permanent. In 70.24% of cases, the reason for making the stoma was malignancy. There were 277 stomas with one or more complications (54.96%). Conclusions: most of the ostomized patients were over 50 years old and the main diagnosis that led to the stoma was malignancy. Ileostomies had a higher percentage of complications than colostomies and urostomies and, for all types of stomas, the most frequent complication was dermatitis.
RESUMO Objetivo: elaborar o perfil epidemiológico dos pacientes estomizados atendidos no Serviço de Atenção à Saúde da Pessoa Ostomizada de Juiz de Fora e região (SASPO/JF) e quantificar tanto as patologias que levaram à confecção, quanto as complicações presentes nas estomias. Método: realizado estudo retrospectivo com análise de 496 prontuários de pacientes cadastrados no SASPO/JF ao longo de 30 anos e que permaneciam em atendimento no serviço em junho de 2018. Foram consideradas as seguintes variáveis: idade, sexo, patologia que levou à confecção do estoma, tipo, caráter temporal, localização e complicações das estomias. Resultados: 53,43% dos pacientes eram do sexo masculino e 46,57% do sexo feminino. A média de idade entre os homens foi de 56,24 anos e entre as mulheres foi de 58,40 anos. Oito pacientes apresentaram dois tipos de estomias simultaneamente e o total de 504 estomias foi distribuído da seguinte forma: 340 colostomias (67,46%), 117 ileostomias (23,21%) e 47 urostomias (9,33%). Além disso, 47,65% das colostomias e 76,92% das ileostomias foram temporárias, enquanto todas as urostomias foram permanentes. Em 70,24% dos casos, o motivo para confecção do estoma foi a neoplasia maligna. Foram encontrados 277 estomas com uma ou mais complicações (54,96%). Conclusão: as estomias predominaram em pacientes com mais de 50 anos e o principal diagnóstico que levou à confecção dos estomas foi a neoplasia maligna. As ileostomias apresentaram maior percentual de complicações do que as colostomias e urostomias e, para todos os tipos de estomas, a complicação mais frequente foi a dermatite.

BACKGROUND: Hospital readmission rate is an important quality metric and has been recognized as a key measure of hospital value-based purchasing programs. OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to assess the risk factors for hospital readmission with a focus on potentially preventable early readmissions within 48 hours of discharge. DESIGN: This is a retrospective cohort study. SETTINGS: This study was conducted at a tertiary academic facility with a standardized enhanced recovery pathway. PATIENTS: Consecutive patients undergoing elective major colorectal resections between 2011 and 2016 were included. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Univariable and multivariable risk factors for overall and early (<48 hours) readmissions were identified. Specific surgical and medical reasons for readmission were compared between early and late readmissions. RESULTS: In total, 526 of 4204 patients (12.5%) were readmitted within 30 days of discharge. Independent risk factors were ASA score (≥3; OR, 1.5; 95% CI, 1.1-2), excess perioperative weight gain (OR, 1.7; 95% CI, 1.3-2.3), ileostomy (OR, 1.4; 95% CI, 1-2), and transfusion (OR, 2; 95% CI, 1.4-3), or reoperation (OR, 11.4; 95% CI, 7.4-17.5) during the index stay. No potentially preventable risk factor for early readmission (128 patients, 24.3% of all readmissions, 3% of total cohort) was identified, and index hospital stay of ≤3 days was not associated with increased readmission (OR, 0.9; 95% CI, 0.7-1.2). Although ileus and small-bowel obstruction (early: 43.8% vs late: 15.5%, p < 0.001) were leading causes for early readmissions, deep infections (3.9% vs 16.3%, p < 0.001) and acute kidney injury (0% vs 5%, p = 0.006) were mainly observed during readmissions after 48 hours. LIMITATIONS: Risk of underreporting due to loss of follow-up and the potential co-occurrence of complications were limitations of this study. CONCLUSIONS: Early hospital readmission was mainly due to ileus or bowel obstruction, whereas late readmissions were related to deep infections and acute kidney injury. A suspicious attitude toward potential ileus-related symptoms before discharge and dedicated education for ostomy patients are important. A short index hospital stay was not associated with increased readmission rates. See Video Abstract at http://links.lww.com/DCR/B237. REINGRESOS DENTRO DE LAS 48 HORAS POSTERIORES AL ALTA: RAZONES, FACTORES DE RIESGO Y POSIBLES MEJORAS: La tasa de reingreso hospitalario es una métrica de calidad importante y ha sido reconocida como una medida clave de los programas hospitalarios de compras basadas en el valor.Evaluar los factores de riesgo para el reingreso hospitalario con énfasis en reingresos tempranos potencialmente prevenibles dentro de las 48 horas posteriores al alta.Estudio de cohorte retrospectivo.Institución académica terciaria con programa de recuperación mejorada estandarizado.Pacientes consecutivos sometidos a resecciones colorrectales mayores electivas entre 2011 y 2016.Se identificaron factores de riesgo uni y multivariables para reingresos totales y tempranos (<48 horas). Se compararon razones médicas y quirúrgicas específicas para el reingreso entre reingresos tempranos y tardíos.En total, 526/4204 pacientes (12,5%) fueron readmitidos dentro de los 30 días posteriores al alta. Los factores de riesgo independientes fueron puntuación ASA (≥3, OR 1.5; IC 95% 1.1-2), aumento de peso perioperatorio excesivo (OR 1.7; IC 95% 1.3-2.3), ileostomía (OR 1.4, IC 95%: 1-2) y transfusión (OR 2, IC 95% 1.4-3) o reoperación (OR 11.4; IC 95% 7.4-17.5) durante la estadía índice. No se identificó ningún factor de riesgo potencialmente prevenible para el reingreso temprano (128 pacientes, 24.3% de todos los reingresos, 3% de la cohorte total), y la estadía hospitalaria índice de ≤ 3 días no se asoció con un aumento en el reingreso (OR 0.9; IC 95% 0.7-1.2) Mientras que el íleo / obstrucción del intestino delgado (temprano: 43.8% vs. tardío: 15.5%, p < 0.001) fueron las principales causas de reingresos tempranos, infecciones profundas (3.9% vs 16.3%, p < 0.001) y lesión renal aguda (0 vs 5%, p = 0.006) se observaron principalmente durante los reingresos después de 48 horas.Riesgo de subregistro debido a la pérdida en el seguimiento, posible co-ocurrencia de complicaciones.El reingreso hospitalario temprano se debió principalmente a íleo u obstrucción intestinal, mientras que los reingresos tardíos se relacionaron con infecciones profundas y lesión renal aguda. Es importante tener una actitud suspicaz hacia los posibles síntomas relacionados con el íleo antes del alta y una educación específica para los pacientes con ostomía. La estadía hospitalaria índice corta no se asoció con mayores tasas de reingreso. Consulte Video Resumen en http://links.lww.com/DCR/B237.

BACKGROUND: Subtotal colectomy with end ileostomy (STC-I) has been well established in the adult literature as an initial surgical treatment for refractory inflammatory bowel disease (IBD)-related colitis. However, in the pediatric population, the efficacy of this approach has been less well characterized, likely because of concerns regarding the advisability of leaving a diseased rectum in situ. Our aim was to examine the outcomes after STC-I for refractory IBD at our pediatric tertiary care center. METHODS: An institutional review board-approved retrospective review of patients aged 5-21 y who underwent operative treatment with initial STC-I for medically refractory IBD from January 2010 to August 2018. Only complications related to the STC-I were considered; complications subsequent to reconstruction are excluded from analysis. Early complications were defined as occurring within 60 d of STC-I. We performed descriptive statistics using the Fisher exact test and the Student t-test, as appropriate. RESULTS: Over the study period, 37 patients (aged 12.3 ± 4.2 y) underwent STC-I, with 73.0% performed laparoscopically. Patients were predominately male (51.4%) and Caucasian (48.6%). Thirty-one (83.8%) colectomies were performed for ulcerative colitis, two (5.4%) for Crohn disease, and four (10.8%) for indeterminate colitis. Nutritional status improved postcolectomy. Albumin levels of 3.3 ± 0.8 preoperatively increased to 4.3 ± 0.47 postoperatively (P < 0.001). Colonic bleeding was stopped by STC-I with increases in the hematocrit from 30.5 ± 6.8 preoperative to 38.9 ± 4.1 postoperatively (P < 0.001). Average time to discontinuation of IBD-related medications was 4 wk (n = 27). Forty-eight percent required outpatient rectal treatment for proctitis. Patients did well long term, with 67.5% reestablishing intestinal continuity at our institution. Average postoperative length of stay was shorter in the laparoscopic group compared with those undergoing open operations (5.1 ± 2.2 versus 6.9 ± 1.6 d, P = 0.03). Readmission rate at 30 d was 21.1%. Patients experiencing unplanned readmission or unplanned operations were similar between groups (30% versus 33.3%, P = 0.85 and 30% versus 18.5%, P = 0.45, respectively). Overall, 14 (37.8%) patients experienced a complication with many patients experiencing multiple complications. Early complications occurred in nine (24.3%) patients. Late complications also occurred in 24.3% of patients. There were four (10.8%) patients with five admissions for bowel obstruction, two of whom required operative intervention (5.4%). CONCLUSIONS: Use of STC-I as an initial procedure in the treatment of refractory IBD-related colitis in children is a safe and reasonable surgical approach that allows weaning from immunosuppressing mediations and stops colonic bleeding. Implementing a laparoscopic approach to subtotal colectomy provides further benefit by reducing postoperative length of stay.

BACKGROUND: Restorative proctocolectomy with ileal-pouch-anal anastomosis is the standard treatment for patients with ulcerative colitis or familial adenomatous polyposis. This procedure has undergone many changes and varies in 1, 2, or 3 stages. A diverting ileostomy can be created with the aim of reducing the consequence of an anastomotic leakage; however, its use is still unknown. METHOD: The value of defunctioning ileostomy was studied in a population of 388 patients undergoing restorative proctocolectomy with ileal-pouch-anal anastomosis between 2005 and 2017. Leakage rate and postoperative morbidity were assessed. Patients were matched on a propensity score using the following criteria: American Society of Anesthesiologists score, body mass index, diagnosis, surgical approach, and year. RESULTS: Two hundred and three ileal-pouch-anal anastomosis for ulcerative colitis and 185 for familial adenomatous polyposis were performed representing 165 1-stage (61.6%), 79 classic 2-stage, 74 modified 2-stage, and 70 3-stage procedures. Regardless of the surgical strategy adopted, there were no significant differences in postoperative morbidity (P = .416), leakage rate (P = .369), and reoperation (P = .237), whether a diverting ileostomy was performed or not. After propensity score matching, there was no significant difference in postoperative morbidity (P = .363), leakage rate (P = .247), or reoperation (P = .243). The rate of persistent ileostomy at 1 year was higher in cases of classic 2-stage or 3-stage procedures (P = .036). CONCLUSION: After propensity score matching, defunctioning ileostomy for ileal-pouch-anal anastomosis does not reduce leakage rate or postoperative morbidity, independent of the surgical strategy. Systematic ileostomy for ileal-pouch-anal anastomosis is probably not justified, and its place should be redefined in a randomized trial.

INTRODUCTION: Anastomotic leakage (AL) remains one of the most threatening complications in colorectal surgery with the incidence of up to 20%. The aim of the study is to evaluate the safety and feasibility of novel - trimodal intraoperative colorectal anastomosis testing technique. METHODS AND ANALYSIS: This multi-center prospective cohort pilot study will include patients undergoing colorectal anastomosis formation below 15âcm from the anal verge. Trimodal anastomosis testing will include testing for blood supply by ICG fluorescence trans-abdominally and trans-anally, testing of mechanical integrity of anastomosis by air-leak and methylene blue leak tests and testing for tension. The primary outcome of the study will be AL rate at day 60. The secondary outcomes will include: the frequency of changed location of bowel resection; ileostomy rate; the rate of intraoperative AL; time, taken to perform trimodal anastomosis testing; postoperative morbidity and mortality; quality of life. DISCUSSION: Trimodal testing of colorectal anastomosis may be a novel and comprehensive way to investigate colorectal anastomosis and to reveal insufficient blood supply and integrity defects intraoperatively. Thus, prevention of these two most common causes of AL may lead to decreased rate of leakage. STUDY REGISTRATION: Clinicaltrials.gov (https://clinicaltrials.gov/): NCT03958500, May, 2019.

Purpose. Protective ileostomy (PI) during anterior resection (AR) for rectal cancer decreases the incidence of anastomotic leakage (AL) and its subsequent complications, but it may itself be the cause of morbidity. The aim is to report our protocol in the management of selected patients with borderline risk to develop AL after laparoscopic AR and ghost ileostomy (GI) creation. Methods. Patients who underwent AR were stratified based on the risk to develop AL. Steps to avoid PI were splenic flexure mobilization, reduced pelvic bleeding, to employ different stapler charge if neoadjuvant chemo-radiotherapy is performed, to perform a horizontal section of the rectum, to evaluate the anastomotic vascularization with a fluorescence angiography, to perform a side-to-end anastomosis, intraoperative methylene blue test, pelvic and transanal drainage tubes placement, and the GI creation. After surgery, inflammatory blood markers were monitored to detect potential leakages. Results. Twelve patients were included. In one case, the specimen proximal section was changed after fluorescence angiography. There were no conversions in this group of patients. One postoperative AL occurred and was treated with radiological drainage placement, not being necessary to convert the GI. PI was avoided in 100% of cases. Conclusions. Patients' characteristics cannot be changed, but several steps were used to avoid routine PI creation. The present protocol could be a valuable option to avoid PI in selected patients. Further studies with a wider sample size, and defined criteria to stratify the patients based on the risk to develop AL, are required.

BACKGROUND: Readmission rates as high as 20% have been reported after ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (IPAA) in children, with obstruction and dehydration as the most commonly listed reasons. We hypothesized that a diverting ileostomy contributes to unplanned readmission after IPAA creation. METHODS: Children (age <18) who underwent IPAA creation from January 2007 to August 2018 at two affiliated institutions were reviewed. Patient demographics, operative details, and post-operative length of stay (LOS) were abstracted. Unplanned readmission within 30â¯days and details on patient readmission were reviewed. RESULTS: Ninety-three patients (57% female) with a median age of 15â¯years (range: 18â¯months-17â¯years) underwent IPAA. Indications for IPAA included ulcerative colitis (nâ¯=â¯63; 68%), familial adenomatous polyposis (nâ¯=â¯24; 26%), indeterminate colitis (nâ¯=â¯5; 5%), and total colonic Hirschsprung's (nâ¯=â¯1; 1%). Sixty-one (66%) patients were diverted at the time of IPAA creation. Fourteen patients (15%) were readmitted, and reasons for readmission included bowel obstruction (nâ¯=â¯9; 64%), dehydration (nâ¯=â¯2; 14%), anastomotic leak (nâ¯=â¯2; 14%), and gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding (nâ¯=â¯1; 6%). Patients with a diverting ileostomy at the time of IPAA were more often readmittted than patients who were not diverted (21% vs 3%, pâ¯=â¯0.03). Further, 10 (71%) of the readmitted patients had complications attributable to their ileostomy. In patients readmitted for obstructive symptoms, six (67%) required red rubber catheter insertion for resolution, two (22%) patients required reoperation for obstructions at the level of the stoma, and one (11%) resolved with bowel rest alone. CONCLUSION: Readmission following IPAA creation in children is often secondary to preventable issues related to diverting ileostomy. Surgeons should carefully consider the necessity of diversion. When it is necessary, particular attention to fascial aperture size and post-discharge initiatives to reduce dehydration may reduce readmission rates. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level III.
