A case of intestinal malrotation apparent after laparoscopically total proctocolectomy followed by ileal-pouch-anal anastomosis for ulcerative colitis.

ABSTRACT: Intestinal malrotation (IM) is an abnormality due to a failure of the normal midgut rotation and fixation. We report a case of 46-year-old man with ulcerative colitis whose IM was apparent after laparoscopically total proctocolectomy (TPC) followed by ileal-pouch-anal anastomosis (IPAA) and ileostomy. There was no abnormal anatomy except for mobile cecum/ascending colon during the initial operation. Intestinal obstruction occurred after ileostomy closure. The computed tomography scan showed the duodeno-jejunal transition was located in right abdomen, the superior mesenteric vein was located left of the superior mesenteric artery (SMA) and the obstruction point was the distal ileum near the pouch. We performed an ileo-ileo bypass across the ventral side of the SMA to relieve the intestinal obstruction. The patient would have incomplete IM preoperatively, which became apparent by TPC. In case of TPC for mobile colon, anatomy of small intestine should be checked before IPAA.

Project description:ObjectivesPouchitis is a major complication after restorative proctocolectomy with ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (IPAA) in patients with ulcerative colitis (UC). Although there have been many investigations of the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) in various diseases, its role in predicting the development of pouchitis remains unclear. We aimed to evaluate the clinical utility of the NLR for predicting the development of pouchitis after IPAA in UC patients.Materials and methodsUC patients who underwent IPAA at Osaka City University Hospital between May 2006 and March 2019 were included. The incidence of pouchitis was estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method. Potential preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative predictors for pouchitis, including various demographic and clinical variables, were analyzed. The combined impact of the NLR and other known prognostic factors were investigated using Cox proportional hazard regression with inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW).ResultsForty-nine patients with UC who underwent IPAA were included. The median follow-up period was 18.3 months (interquartile range: 10.7-47.2 months). Eighteen patients (36.7%) developed pouchitis. The incidence of pouchitis was 19.2%, 32.6%, and 45.9% at 1, 2, and 5 years, respectively. NLR was significantly associated with the development of pouchitis in the univariate Cox regression analysis (hazard ratio (HR), 1.14; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.01-1.28; P = 0.03). The NLR cutoff value of 2.15 was predictive of the development of pouchitis according to receiver operating characteristic analysis (specificity: 67.7%, sensitivity: 72.2%). The incidence of pouchitis was significantly lower in the low NLR group than that in the high NLR group (P = 0.01, log-rank test). Cox regression analyses using IPTW also identified NLR as a prognostic factor for the development of pouchitis by statistically adjusting for background factors (HR, 3.60; 95% CI, 1.31-9.89; P = 0.01).ConclusionsNLR may be a novel and useful indicator for predicting the development of pouchitis after IPAA in UC and should be introduced in clinical practice.
