RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Persistent (or ongoing) diverticulitis is a well-recognized outcome after treatment for acute sigmoid diverticulitis; however, its definition, incidence, and risk factors, as well as its long-term implications, remain poorly described. OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to assess the incidence, risk factors, and long-term outcomes of persistent diverticulitis. DESIGN: This was a retrospective cohort study. SETTINGS: Two university-affiliated hospitals in Montreal, Quebec, Canada were included. PATIENTS: The study was composed of consecutive patients managed nonoperatively for acute sigmoid diverticulitis. INTERVENTION: Nonoperative management of acute sigmoid diverticulitis was involved. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Persistent diverticulitis, defined as inpatient or outpatient treatment for signs and symptoms of ongoing diverticulitis within the first 60 days after treatment of the index episode, was measured. RESULTS: In total, 915 patients were discharged after an index episode of diverticulitis managed nonoperatively. Seventy-five patients (8.2%; 95% CI, 6.5%-10.2%) presented within 60 days with persistent diverticulitis. Factors associated with persistent diverticulitis were younger age (adjusted OR = 0.98 (95% CI, 0.96-0.99)), immunosuppression (adjusted OR = 2.02 (95% CI, 1.04-3.88)), and abscess (adjusted OR = 2.05 (95% CI, 1.03-3.92)). Among the 75 patients with persistent disease, 42 (56.0%) required hospital admission, 6 (8.0%) required percutaneous drainage, and 5 (6.7%) required resection. After a median follow-up of 39.0 months (range, 17.0-67.3 mo), the overall recurrence rate in the entire cohort was 31.3% (286/910). After excluding patients who were managed operatively for their persistent episode of diverticulitis, the cumulative incidence of recurrent diverticulitis (log-rank: p < 0.001) and sigmoid colectomy (log-rank: p < 0.001) were higher among patients who experienced persistent diverticulitis after the index episode. After adjustment for relevant patient and disease factors, persistent diverticulitis was associated with higher hazards of recurrence (adjusted HR = 1.94 (95% CI, 1.37-2.76) and colectomy (adjusted HR = 5.11 (95% CI, 2.96-8.83)). LIMITATIONS: The study was limited by its observational study design and modest sample size. CONCLUSIONS: Approximately 10% of patients experience persistent diverticulitis after treatment for an index episode of diverticulitis. Persistent diverticulitis is a poor prognostic factor for long-term outcomes, including recurrent diverticulitis and colectomy. See Video Abstract at http://links.lww.com/DCR/B593. REPERCUSIONES A LARGO PLAZO DE LA DIVERTICULITIS PERSISTENTE ESTUDIO DE UNA COHORTE RETROSPECTIVA DE PACIENTES: ANTECEDENTES:La diverticulitis persistente (o continua) es un resultado bien conocido posterior al tratamiento de la diverticulitis aguda del sigmoides; sin embargo, la definición, incidencia y factores de riesgo, así como sus repercusiones a largo plazo siguen estando descritas de manera deficiente.OBJETIVO:Evaluar la incidencia, los factores de riesgo y los resultados a largo plazo de la diverticulitis persistente.DISEÑO:Estudio de una cohorte retrospectiva.AMBITO:Dos hospitales universitarios afiliados en Montreal, Quebec, Canadá.PACIENTES:pacientes consecutivos tratados sin cirugia por diverticulitis aguda del sigmoides.INTERVENCIÓN:Tratamiento no quirúrgico de la diverticulitis aguda del sigmoides.PRINCIPALES RESULTADOS EVALUADOS:Diverticulitis persistente, definida como tratamiento hospitalario o ambulatorio por signos y síntomas de diverticulitis continua dentro de los primeros 60 días posteriores al tratamiento del episodio índice.RESULTADOS:Un total de 915 pacientes fueron dados de alta posterior al episodio índice de diverticulitis tratados sin cirugia. Setenta y cinco pacientes (8,2%; IC del 95%: 6,5-10,2%) presentaron diverticulitis persistente dentro de los 60 días. Los factores asociados con la diverticulitis persistente fueron una edad menor (aOR: 0,98, IC del 95%: 0,96-0,99), inmunosupresión (aOR: 2,02, IC del 95%: 1,04-3,88) y abscesos (aOR: 2,05, IC del 95%: 1,03-3,92). Entre los 75 pacientes con enfermedad persistente, 42 (56,0%) requirieron ingreso hospitalario, 6 (8,0%) drenaje percutáneo y 5 (6,7%) resección. Posterior a seguimiento medio de 39,0 (17,0-67,3) meses, la tasa global de recurrencia de toda la cohorte fue del 31,3% (286/910). Después de excluir a los pacientes que fueron tratados quirúrgicamente por su episodio persistente de diverticulitis, la incidencia acumulada de diverticulitis recurrente (rango logarítmico: p <0,001) y colectomía sigmoidea (rango logarítmico: p <0,001) fue mayor entre los pacientes que experimentaron diverticulitis persistente después el episodio índice. Posterior al ajuste de factores importantes de la enfermedad y del paciente, la diverticulitis persistente se asoció con mayores riesgos de recurrencia (aHR: 1,94, IC 95% 1,37-2,76) y colectomía (aHR: 5,11, IC 95% 2,96-8,83).LIMITACIONES:Diseño de estudio observacional, un modesto tamaño de muestra.CONCLUSIONES:Aproximadamente el 10% de los pacientes presentan diverticulitis persistente después del tratamiento del episodio índice de diverticulitis. La diverticulitis persistente, en sus resultados a largo plazo, es un factor de mal pronóstico, donse se inlcuye la diverticulitis recurente y colectomía.

RESUMEN

CASE SUMMARY: A 46-year-old man with no significant medical or surgical history presented to the emergency department with a 1-week history of worsening constipation, abdominal distension, nausea, and nonbloody, nonbilious emesis. Workup included a CT scan that was notable for a 5.3 × 3.9 cm "apple core-type" mass located within the sigmoid colon with proximal large-bowel dilation. Carcinoembryonic antigen was 1.4. No metastatic disease was seen on chest, abdominal, or pelvic CT scans. Flexible sigmoidoscopy identified a sigmoid colon mass 30 cm from the anal verge with near complete obstruction. Biopsies of the mass did not show evidence of dysplasia or malignancy. The Gastroenterology service declined to place a stent without a malignancy diagnosis. The patient subsequently underwent exploratory laparotomy, sigmoid colectomy, and end colostomy. Recovery was uneventful. Final pathology showed diverticulitis with abscess formation and no evidence of malignancy. A completion colonoscopy was unremarkable, and the patient underwent colostomy reversal 3 months later.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: The objective of this study was to describe conditional recurrence-free survival (RFS) of patients after an index episode of diverticulitis managed without surgery, and to estimate the difference in conditional RFS for diverticulitis according to specific risk factors. METHODS: This was a multicentre retrospective cohort study including all patients managed without surgery for acute sigmoid diverticulitis at two university-affiliated hospitals in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. Conditional RFS for diverticulitis was estimated over 10 years of follow-up. A Cox proportional hazards model was performed at the index episode and again 2 years later. RESULTS: In total, 991 patients were included for analysis. The 1, 2- and 3-year actuarial diverticulitis RFS rates were 81·1, 71·5 and 67·5 per cent respectively. Compared with the 1-year actuarial RFS rate of 81·1 per cent, the 1-year conditional RFS increased with each additional year survived recurrence-free, reaching 96·0 per cent after surviving the first 4 years recurrence-free. A similar phenomenon was observed for 2-year diverticulitis conditional RFS. Lower age (hazard ratio (HR) 0·98, 95 per cent c.i. 0·98 to 0·99), Charlson Co-morbidity Index score of 2 or above (HR 1·78, 1·32 to 2·39) and immunosuppression (HR 1·85, 1·38 to 2·48) were independently associated with recurrence of diverticulitis from the index episode. At 2 years from the index episode, immunosuppression was no longer associated with diverticulitis recurrence (HR 1·02, 0·50 to 2·09). CONCLUSION: The conditional RFS of patients with diverticulitis improved with each year that was survived recurrence-free. Although several factors at index presentation may be associated with early recurrence, the conditional probability of recurrence according to many of these risk factors converged with time.


ANTECEDENTES: El objetivo de este estudio fue describir la supervivencia condicional libre de recidiva de diverticulitis (diverticulitis recurrence-free survival, Div-RFS) en pacientes tras un episodio de diverticulitis tratado de forma conservadora, y calcular la diferencia en la Div-RFS condicional de acuerdo con factores de riesgo específicos. MÉTODOS: Estudio de cohorte retrospectivo multicéntrico que incluyó a todos los pacientes tratados de forma no quirúrgica por diverticulitis sigmoidea aguda en dos hospitales afiliados a la universidad en Montreal, Quebec, Canadá. La supervivencia condicional libre de recidiva de la diverticulitis se calculó durante 10 años de seguimiento. Se realizó un análisis mediante un modelo de riesgos proporcionales de Cox en el episodio índice y nuevamente 2 años después. RESULTADOS: En total, se incluyeron 991 pacientes en el análisis. La Div-RFS actuarial a 1, 2 y 3 años fue del 81,1%, 71,5% y 67,5%, respectivamente. En comparación con la Div-RFS actuarial a 1 año del 81,1%, la Div-RFS condicional a 1 año aumentó con cada año adicional sobrevivido sin recidiva, alcanzando el 96,0% después de sobrevivir los primeros 4 años sin recidiva. Se observó un fenómeno similar para Div-RFS condicional a los 2 años. Una menor edad (cociente de riesgos instantáneos, hazard ratio, HR: 0,98; i.c. del 95%: 0,98 a 0,99), la puntuación de comorbilidad de Charlson ≥ 2 (HR: 1,78; i.c. del 95%: 1,32 a 2,39) y la inmunosupresión (HR: 1,85; i.c. del 95%: 1,38 a 2,48) se asociaron de forma independiente con la recidiva de la diverticulitis desde el episodio índice. En la regresión de Cox a los 2 años del episodio índice, la inmunosupresión ya no se asoció con recidiva de diverticulitis (HR: 1,02; i.c. del 95% 0,50-2,09). CONCLUSIÓN: La Div-RFS condicional mejoró con cada año de supervivencia sin recidiva. Si bien varios factores en la presentación del episodio índice pueden estar asociados con una recidiva precoz, la probabilidad condicional de recidiva en relación con muchos de estos factores de riesgo coincidió con el tiempo.

RESUMEN

Acute diverticulitis (AD) is an increasing issue for health systems worldwide. As accuracy of clinical symptoms and laboratory examinations is poor, a pivotal role in preoperative diagnosis and severity assessment is played by CT scan. Several new classifications trying to adapt the intraoperative Hinchey's classification to preoperative CT findings have been proposed, but none really entered clinical practice. Treatment of early AD is mostly conservative (antibiotics) and may be administered in outpatients in selected cases. Larger abscesses (exceeding 3 to 5 cm) need percutaneous drainage, while management of stages 3 (purulent peritonitis) and 4 (fecal peritonitis) is difficult to standardize, as various approaches are nowadays suggested. Three situations are identified: situation A, stage 3 in stable/healthy patients, where various options are available, including conservative management, lavage/drainage and primary resection/anastomosis w/without protective stoma; situation B, stage 3 in unstable and/or unhealthy patients, and stage 4 in stable/healthy patients, where stoma-protected primary resection/anastomosis or Hartmann procedure should be performed; situation C, stage 4 in unstable and/or unhealthy patients, where Hartmann procedure or damage control surgery (resection without any anastomosis/stoma) are suggested. Late, elective sigmoid resection is less and less performed, as a new trend towards a patient-tailored management is spreading.

RESUMEN

PURPOSE: The aim of this systematic review was to determine the rates of failure following nonoperative management for acute sigmoid diverticulitis complicated by abscess. METHODS: Pubmed and Medline were systematically searched by two independent researchers. Studies reporting outcomes of nonoperative management of diverticulitis with abscess revealed on CT scan were included. The endpoint of the study was failure of nonoperative management which included relapse and recurrence. Relapse was defined as development of additional complications such as peritonitis or obstruction that required urgent surgery during index admission or readmission within 30 days. Recurrence was defined as development of symptoms after an asymptomatic period of 30-90 days following nonoperative management. Nonoperative management included nil per os, intravenous fluids and antibiotics, CT-guided percutaneous drainage, and/or total parenteral nutrition. RESULTS: Twenty-four of 844 studies yielded by literature search totaling 12,601 patients were eligible for inclusion. Pooled relapse rate was 18.9%. The pooled rate of recurrence of acute diverticulitis was found to be 25.5%. 60.9% of recurrences were complicated diverticulitis. Failure rate appeared to be significantly increased in patients undergoing percutaneous drainage for distant abscess as compared with pericolic abscess (51% vs. 18%; p = 0.0001). CONCLUSION: The rate of failure of nonoperative management was 44.4%. The rate of relapse at 30 days following nonoperative management was at 18.9%. Distant abscesses were associated with significantly increased rates of relapse compared with pericolic abscesses. The rate of recurrence following nonoperative management was 25.5% at the mean follow-up of 38 months.

RESUMEN

Colonic volvulus and acute colonic pseudo-obstruction (ACPO) are 2 causes of benign large-bowel obstruction. Colonic volvulus occurs most commonly in the sigmoid colon as a result of bowel twisting along its mesenteric axis. In contrast, the exact pathophysiology of ACPO is poorly understood, with the prevailing hypothesis being altered regulation of colonic function by the autonomic nervous system resulting in colonic distention in the absence of mechanical blockage. Prompt diagnosis and intervention leads to improved outcomes for both diagnoses. Endoscopy may play a role in the evaluation and management of both entities. The purpose of this document from the American Society for Gastrointestinal Endoscopy's Standards of Practice Committee is to provide an update on the evaluation and endoscopic management of sigmoid volvulus and ACPO.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Some patients with uncomplicated diverticulitis have extraluminal air. Our objective was to determine if patients with Hinchey 1a diverticulitis and isolated extraluminal air present more severe episode than patients without extraluminal air. METHODS: The present study is a monocentric observational retrospective cohort study. Computed tomographies of patients with diagnosed uncomplicated diverticulitis were retrospectively reviewed from the 01 January 2005 to the 31 December 2009. The presence of extraluminal air was determined. Leukocyte count, CRP value, and length of hospitalization were extracted from the patients' files. The follow-up period was from the time of diagnosis to the 15th of March 2019, the latest. Follow-up was censored for death and sigmoidectomy. Recurrence and emergency sigmoidectomy were documented during the follow-up period. The study was performed according to the STROBE guideline. RESULTS: Three hundred and one patients with an episode of Hinchey 1a diverticulitis were included. Extraluminal air was present in 56 patients (18.60%). Leukocyte count (12.4 ± 4.1(G/l) versus 10.7 ± 3.5(G/l), p = 0.05), CRP value (156.9 ± 95.1(mg/l) versus 89.9 ± 74.8(mg/l), p < 0.001), and length of hospital stay (10.9 ± 5.5(days) versus 8.4 ± 3.6(days), p < 0.001) were significantly higher in patients with extraluminal air than in patients without extraluminal air. Seventy-two patients (23.92%) presented a recurrence during the follow-up period. Survival estimates did not differ between patients with or without extraluminal air (p = 0.717). Eleven patients (3.65%) required emergency surgery during the follow-up period. Patients with extraluminal air had shorter emergency surgery-free survival than patients without extraluminal air (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION: The presence of extraluminal air in Hinchey 1a diverticulitis indicates a more severe episode, with higher inflammation parameters at admission, longer length of stay, and an increased risk for emergency sigmoidectomy.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Severe haemorrhage is an uncommon but life-threatening complication of ulcerative colitis (UC). Superselective transcatheter embolization has shown to be an effective and safe therapeutic modality in patients with lower gastrointestinal bleeding of various aetiologies; nevertheless, its role in UC-related acute bleeding is unknown. CASES PRESENTATION: Efficacy and safety of selective transcatheter arterial embolization in three consecutive UC patients diagnosed with massive haemorrhage admitted in a tertiary institution are reported. In all patients computed tomography scan showed active arterial haemorrhage from ascendant or sigmoid colon; subsequent arteriography demonstrated active arterial bleeding from colic branches of the superior or inferior mesenteric arteries, and selective transcatheter embolization was performed with immediate technical success in all three cases. Nevertheless, rebleeding requiring subtotal colectomy occurred between 5 h and 6 days after the procedure. CONCLUSIONS: Transcatheter arterial embolization is not an effective therapeutic approach in UC patients with severe, acute colonic haemorrhage. Colectomy should not be delayed in this setting.

RESUMEN

Backround Sigmoid volvulus is an uncommon cause of bowel obstruction in most western societies. Treatment options include colonoscopy in uncomplicated disease with elective surgery later on. The aim of this study was to assess what treatment sigmoid volvulus patients receive along with long-term outcomes at Landspitali University Hospital. Methods The study was retrospective. Patients diagnosed with sigmoid volvulus at Landspitali University Hospital from 2000-2013 were included. Information regarding age, sex, and duration of hospital stay, treatment, short and long-term outcomes were gathered. Results Forty-nine patients were included in the study, of which 29 men and 20 women. Mean age was 74 (25-93). One patient underwent acute surgery on first arrival due to signs of peritonitis. Others (n=48) were treated conservatively in the first attempt with colonoscopy (n=45), barium enema (n=2) and rectal tube (n=1). Three other patients underwent acute surgery due to failed colonoscopy, 8 patients had planned surgery during the index admission. Thirty-six patients were discharged after conservative treatment with colonoscopy (n=35), barium enema (n=1) or rectal tube (n=1). Two patients came in for elec-tive surgery later on. Twenty-two patients (61%) had recurrence. Median time to recurrence was 101 days (1-803). Disease-free probability in 3, 6 and 24 months was 66%, 55% and 22% respec-tively. Total disease related mortality was 10.2%. Mortality (30 days) after acute surgery was 25% (1/4) and 16,6% (3/18) after planned surgery. Conclusions Sigmoid volvulus has high recurrence rate if not treated operatively. Total mortality due to sigmoid volvulus at Landspitali is low but surgery related mortality high.
