Preoperative Risk Factors for Short-Term Postoperative Mortality of Acute Mesenteric Ischemia after Laparotomy: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

Our objective was to comprehensively present the evidence of preoperative risk factors for short-term postoperative mortality of acute mesenteric ischemia after laparotomy.

Methods

PubMed, Embase, and Google Scholar were searched from January 2000 to January 2020. Studies evaluating the postoperative risk factors for short-term postoperative mortality of acute mesenteric ischemia after laparotomy were included. The outcome extracted were patients' demographics, medical history, and preoperative laboratory tests.

Results

Twenty studies (5011 patients) met the inclusion criteria. Studies were of high quality, with a median Newcastle-Ottawa Scale Score of 7. Summary short-term postoperative mortality was 44.38% (range, 18.80%-67.80%). Across included studies, 49 potential risk factors were examined, at least two studies. Meta-analysis of predictors based on more than three studies identified the following preoperative risk factors for higher short-term postoperative mortality risk: old age (odds ratio [OR], 1.90, 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.57-2.30), arterial occlusive mesenteric ischemia versus mesenteric venous thrombosis (OR, 2.45, 95% CI 1.12-5.33), heart failure (OR 1.33, 95% CI 1.03-1.72), renal disorders (OR 1.61, 95% CI 1.24-2.07), and peripheral vascular disease (OR 1.38, 95% CI 1.00-1.91). Nonsurvivors were older (standardized mean difference [SMD], 0.32, 95% CI 0.24-0.40), had higher creatinine levels (SMD 0.50, 95% CI 0.25-0.75), and had lower platelet counts (SMD -0.32, 95% CI -0.50 to -0.14).

Conclusion

The short-term postoperative mortality of acute mesenteric ischemia who underwent laparotomy is still high. A better understanding of these risk factors may help in the early identification of high-risk patients, optimization of surgical procedure, and improvement of perioperative management.

Project description:ObjectiveAcute mesenteric ischemia (AMI) is a surgical emergency for which delays in treatment have been closely associated with high morbidity and mortality. Although the duration of ischemia as a determinant of outcomes for AMI is well known, the objective of this study was to identify hospital-based determinants of delayed revascularization and their effects on postoperative morbidity and mortality in AMI.MethodsAll patients who underwent any surgery for AMI from a multi-center hospital system between 2010 and 2020 were divided into two groups based on timeliness of mesenteric revascularization after presentation. Early revascularization (ER) was defined as having both vascular consultation ≤12 hours of presentation and vascular surgery performed at the patient's initial operation. Delayed revascularization (DR) was defined as having either delays to vascular consultation or vascular surgery. A retrospective review of demographic and postoperative data was performed. The effect of DR on major postoperative outcomes, including 30-day and 2-year mortality, total length of bowel resection, and development of short bowel syndrome, were analyzed. Effects of delayed vascular consultation alone, delayed vascular surgery alone, no revascularization during admission, and admitting service on outcomes were also examined on subgroup analyses.ResultsA total of 212 patients were analyzed. Ninety-nine patients received ER, whereas the remaining 113 patients experienced a DR after hospital presentation. Among the DR group, 55 patients (25.9%) had delayed vascular consultation, whereas vascular surgery was deferred until after the initial operation in 37 patients (17.4%). Fifty-one patients (24.0%) were never revascularized during admission. DR was a significant predictor of 30-day (odds ratio [OR], 2.09; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.4-4.9; P = .03) and 2-year mortality (hazard ratio, 1.55, 95% CI, 1.0-2.3; P = .04). DR was also independently associated with increased bowel resection length (OR, 7.47; P < .01) and postoperative short bowel syndrome (OR, 2.4; P = .03) on multivariate analyses. When examined separately on subgroup analysis, both delayed vascular consultation (OR, 3.38; P = .03) and vascular surgery (OR, 4.31; P < .01) independently increased risk of 30-day mortality. Hospital discharge after AMI without mesenteric revascularization was associated with increased risk of short bowel syndrome (OR, 2.94; P < .01) and late mortality (hazard ratio, 1.60; P = .04).ConclusionsDelayed vascular consultation and vascular surgery are both significant hospital-based determinants of postoperative mortality and short bowel syndrome in patients with AMI. Timing-based management protocols that emphasize routine evaluation by a vascular surgeon and early, definitive mesenteric revascularization should be established and widely adopted for all patients with clinically suspected AMI at presentation.

Project description:BackgroundLaparoscopic aortomesenteric bypass may be performed to treat the chronic mesenteric ischemia patients who are not suitable for endovascular treatment. This study presents an initial experience with a limited series of laparoscopic mesenteric artery revascularization for the treatment of mesenteric ischemia.MethodsChronic mesenteric ischemia (CMI) patients with previous unsuccessful endovascular treatment or with arterial occlusion and extensive calcification precluding safe endovascular treatment were offered laparoscopic mesenteric revascularization. From October 2015 until November 2018, nine patients with CMI underwent laparoscopic revascularization. In addition to demographic data and perioperative results of the treatment, graft patency was assessed with Duplex ultrasound at 1, 3, 6 and 12 months, and annually thereafter. A descriptive analysis of the data was performed.ResultsAll bypasses were constructed with an 8 mm ring enforced expanded polytetrafluoroethylene graft in a retrograde fashion (from infrarenal aorta or iliac artery) to either superior mesenteric artery or splenic artery (2 cases). Median operation time was 356 mins (range 247-492 mins). Five patients had a history of unsuccessful endovascular treatment. Laparoscopic technical success was 78%, and the primary open conversion rate was 22%. All laparoscopic revascularization procedures remained patent after discharge during a median follow-up time of 26 months (range 18-49 months). The primary graft patency at 30 days was 78%. Primary assisted, and secondary graft patency was 78% and 100%, respectively. Median weight gain was 2 kg (range 2-18 kg), and all patients achieved relief from postprandial pain and nausea. No mortality was observed during the follow-up period.ConclusionLaparoscopic aortomesenteric revascularization procedures for chronic mesenteric ischemia are feasible but require careful patient selection. These procedures should only be performed at referral centers by vascular surgeons with prior experience in laparoscopic vascular surgery.
