Project description:Here, we describe the modified delta-shaped anastomosis (DSA) via the overlap method and how it was a beneficial intracorporeal anastomotic technique for four patients who underwent laparoscopic colectomy. After resecting the colon on both sides of the lesion, proximal and distal colon were laid in an overlap fashion and fixed using sutures. The entry hole was created using an ultrasound scalpel at a point 3 cm proximal to right colic stump and 7 cm distal to left colic stump on the anti-mesenteric side. Then, two arms of the linear stapler were inserted inside each lumen and fired. Finally, using the linear stapler, the common entry hole was closed in a delta-shaped manner. The mean duration of surgery was determined to be 218.4 (196-369) minutes, and amount of blood loss was measured to be 11 (5-25) mL. No intraoperative and postoperative complications were observed. Median postoperative hospital stay was 12 days. Thus, modified DSA via overlap method can be considered as a safe and simple IA technique.

Project description:BackgroundThe effectiveness of the anastomosis method for laparoscopic left colectomy (LLC) remains inconclusive. Thus, a systematic review and meta-analysis were conducted to compare the outcomes between intraperitoneal anastomosis (IPA) and extraperitoneal anastomosis(EPA)in LLC.MethodsPubMed, Embase, the Cochrane Library, CNKI, and WanFangData were systematically searched for relevant literature. The literature was screened independently by two groups, and data were extracted and evaluated for bias. Meta-analysis was performed using Revman5.4 software.ResultsTwelve studies with a total of 1,278 patients were included in our meta-analysis. Compared with the EPA group, the IPA group had less blood loss [odds ratio (OR)=-20.32, 95% confidence interval (CI) (-27.98-12.65), p<0.00001], a lower overall complication rate [OR=0.45, 95% CI (0.33-0.63), p<0.00001], fewer non-severe complications [OR=0.44, 95% CI (0.30-0.64), p<0.0001], and fewer surgical site infections [OR=0.39, 95% CI (0.21-0.71), p=0.002]. Additionally, a longer operation time appeared in the multicenter and propensity score matching (PSM) subgroups of the IPA group. Furthermore, patients in the IPA group had an earlier exhaust time and shorter hospital stays. There were no significant differences between the two groups regarding severe complications, anastomose-related complications, postoperative blood transfusion, ileus, reoperation rate, time to stool, pathologic sample length, and lymph node dissection number.ConclusionIPA seems more advantageous than EPA for patients receiving LCC in terms of complications and postoperative recovery and has similar oncological outcomes. However, it may take longer and be more difficult to perform.Systematic review registrationhttps://www.crd.york.ac.uk/PROSPERO/#recordDetails PROSPERO, identifier (CRD4202454391).

Project description:Laparoscopic colon surgery is performed frequently in the clinical setting for a multitude of reasons including cancer, infection, and autoimmune disease. As a result, extensive research has been conducted in relation to clinical outcomes after surgery, but more recently, in relation to the impact of surgery and other patient factors on physiologic homeostasis including the host microbiome. Despite this, experimental surgical models for laparoscopic colon surgery are scarce in the literature with most studies utilizing rodents. While rodent studies provide valuable insights into basic mechanistic processes, the translation of novel therapeutic approaches to clinical practice often requires the use of large animal models. In exploring the intricate systems biology linking surgery and medicine, sophisticated models such as nonhuman primates (NHPs) play a pivotal role. By closely resembling human anatomical, physiological, and behavioral characteristics, NHPs facilitate the development and refinement of complex surgical techniques and peri-operative practices. Furthermore, they enable longitudinal studies that comprehensively assess both immediate and long-term outcomes. The availability and utilization of multiple robust models enhance the validity of surgical research, leading to more successful translation to human clinical practice. Here we describe our technique for performing a laparoscopic sigmoid colectomy with a primary anastomosis in an NHP. The entire procedure was well tolerated without significant ventilation or hemodynamic issue. To our knowledge, this represents the first laparoscopic sigmoid colectomy with primary anastomosis performed in an NHP. Furthermore, this demonstrates the feasibility of the technique and provides a relevant, preclinical model for the study of surgical colon disease. Although the surgical colectomy model in NHPs closely resembles the clinical scenario, it is crucial to recognize that a 'model' inherently comes with limitations. The intended use of any model should be carefully evaluated concerning the target patient population with the consideration of potential disparities in anatomy, physiology, environmental factors, and disease to properly interpret results. This model provides an opportunity to study mechanisms, from a systems biology perspective, underlying both innovative surgical treatments and their effects on diseases such as colon cancer, as well as benign conditions like inflammatory bowel disease, diverticulitis, and anastomotic leak, offering high predictive value.

Project description:BackgroundUlcerative colitis is an idiopathic inflammatory condition of the colon that may require surgical intervention including proctocolectomy and either ileal pouch-anal anastomosis or in the pediatric population, low ileorectal anastomosis (IRA). Often, subsequent physiologic alteration (or colonic metaplasia) occurs in the anastomosed small bowel that includes changes in mucin content, villous blunting, and increased expression of WNT5A, a marker of colonic crypt regeneration. We developed a rat low IRA model to assess and study the development of colonic metaplasia.Materials and methodsWe subjected male Sprague-Dawley rats (n = 17) to total colectomy and low IRA surgery and evaluated healing periodically by endoscopic evaluation. The ileum upstream of the anastomosis was assessed by hematoxylin and eosin staining, and the mucin content was measured by high iron diamine-Alcian blue staining. Wnt5a transcripts were quantified by reverse transcription and quantitative polymerase chain reaction at the 8-wk study end point.ResultsAlthough no gross endoscopic evidence of inflammation was seen throughout the course of the study, colonic metaplasia in the small bowel was detected in 7 out of 10 (70%) rats at the study end point. In rats with colonic metaplasia, enhanced expression of Wnt5a was evident at the study end point compared to levels in the terminal ileum at the time of surgery.ConclusionsWithin 4-8 wk, the majority of rats subjected to IRA developed colonic metaplasia defined by villous blunting, changes in mucin content, and increased expression of Wnt5a. This model provides a method to study small bowel colonic metaplasia.

Project description:IntroductionApplication of intracorporeal anastomosis is gradually becoming widespread; however, there are no detailed reports on its configuration. We aimed to create three-dimensional intracorporeal anastomosis models and compare their configurations in detail.MethodsThree types of intracorporeal anastomosis models were used: overlap anastomosis, delta-shaped anastomosis, and functional end-to-end anastomosis. In experiment 1, three-dimensional images of each anastomosis model were created. Additionally, the length of each staple line comprising the anastomotic site was measured. In experiment 2, the lengths of intestinal mobilization required for different anastomoses were compared.ResultsThe circumference of the anastomosis in overlap anastomosis (141.5 ± 3.3 mm) was significantly greater than that in delta-shaped anastomosis (87.9 ± 0.9 mm; p < 0.001) and functional end-to-end anastomosis (89.6 ± 10 mm; p < 0.0001). The length of the intestinal tract after anastomosis in delta-shaped anastomosis (33 ± 6.9 mm) was significantly shorter than that in functional end-to-end anastomosis (76 ± 2 mm; p < 0.0001) and overlap anastomosis (60 ± 5 mm; p < 0.002).ConclusionsWe successfully constructed three-dimensional images of intracorporeal anastomosis models. These results suggest that overlap anastomosis led to the formation of the largest anastomotic site, while minimal bowel mobilization was required in the delta-shaped anastomosis.

Project description:BackgroundDelta-shaped anastomosis is a common method of intracorporeal gastroduodenostomy in totally laparoscopic distal gastrectomy. One common postoperative complication of this procedure is anastomotic stenosis, and endoscopic balloon dilatation is a major remedy for such complications. Other treatment strategies are necessary to manage unsuccessful endoscopic balloon dilatation.Case presentationWe present a case where systemic steroid treatment was applied in sustained anastomotic stenosis after endoscopic balloon dilatation. We performed delta-shaped anastomosis in laparoscopic distal gastrectomy to treat early-stage gastric cancer in a patient. The patient experienced abdominal pain post-surgery; subsequent investigation revealed edematous anastomotic stenosis. The stenosis sustained even after endoscopic balloon dilatation and local steroid injection. Consequently, we applied systemic steroid treatment.ConclusionSystemic steroid treatment improved the stenosis and no recurrence was observed. These results suggest that systemic steroid application could be useful to treat anastomotic stenosis.

Project description:BackgroundSelection of intracorporeal anastomosis (IA) or extracorporeal anastomosis (EA) in laparoscopic right colectomy (LRC) remains controversial. This meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of IA compared with EA in LRC patients.MethodsLiterature was searched systematically for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that compared IA with EA in LRC patients until May 2021. The eligible studies for risk of bias were assessed using the Cochrane Risk of Bias Tool. Data were extracted and analysed for the following outcomes of interest: operative time, length of incision, nodal harvest, bowel function recovery, postoperative pain, postoperative complications (wound infection, anastomotic leak, ileus, obstruction, reoperation), death at 30 days, duration of hospital stay and 30-day readmission.ResultsFive RCTs, including a total of 559 patients, were eligible for meta-analysis. All of the trials reported adequate random sequence generation and allocation concealment. There were significantly better outcomes in the IA group than in the EA group in time to first flatus (mean difference (MD) -0.71 (95 per cent c.i. -1.12 to -0.31), P = 0.0005), time to first passage of stool (MD -0.53 (95 per cent c.i. -0.69 to -0.37), P < 0.00001), visual analogue scale of pain on postoperative day (POD) 3 (MD -0.76 (95 per cent c.i. -1.23 to -0.28), P = 0.002), POD 4 (MD -0.83 (95 per cent c.i. -1.46 to -0.20), P = 0.01), POD 5 (MD -0.60 (95 per cent c.i. -0.95 to -0.25), P = 0.0007), length of incision (MD -1.52 (95 per cent c.i. -2.30 to -0.74), P = 0.0001) and wound infection (relative risk 0.46 (95 per cent c.i. 0.23 to 0.91), P = 0.02). However, there were no statistically significant differences between the two groups in duration of hospital stay (P = 0.47), operative time (P = 0.07), number of lymph nodes harvested (P = 0.70), anastomotic leak (P = 0.88), postoperative ileus (P = 0.48), bleeding (P = 0.15), bowel obstruction (P = 0.24), reoperation (P = 0.34), readmission within 30 days (P = 0.26), and death (P = 0.70).ConclusionCompared with EA, IA shows a faster recovery of bowel function with fewer wound infections.

Project description:BackgroundThere is still no consensus on the management of intraperitoneal anastomotic leakage after colonic surgery. Among of various treatment strategies, laparoscopic redo anastomosis for intraperitoneal leakage has rarely been reported in the literature and is condemned by some. The aim of this study is to demonstrate the feasibility and safety of laparoscopic redo anastomosis for intraperitoneal anastomotic leakage.MethodsRetrospective chart review of laparoscopic redo anastomosis for intraperitoneal anastomotic leakage after colonic surgery from January 2013 to May 2020. An accompanying video demonstrates the technique.ResultsFifteen consecutive patients underwent laparoscopic redo anastomosis for management of leakage after colonic surgery; two patients required conversion to open repair. A protective stoma was created in three patients during the second operation. There was no re-leakage nor mortality in this series.ConclusionsLaparoscopic redo anastomosis was feasible and safe for the management of intraperitoneal anastomotic leakage after colonic surgery. Considering the advantages of re-do laparoscopy, this procedure should be part of every surgeon's armamentarium to deal with anastomotic leakage and represents a logical alternative to the "Diversion and Drainage" technique.

Project description:BackgroundLaparoscopic colectomy is widely practiced for colon cancer, but many variations exist for anastomosis after laparoscopic colon cancer radical resection.MethodWe retrospectively analyzed 226 patients who underwent laparoscopic-assisted radical resection for left colon cancer with knotless hand-sewn end-to-end anastomosis (KHEA) technique with barbed V-loc™ suture material and compared perioperative outcomes, safety, and efficacy to those undergoing stapled anastomosis from 2010 to 2021.ResultsAfter the 1:2 propensity score matching, 123 participants with similar preoperative characteristics (age, body mass index, TNM stage, and tumor location) were enrolled in the study: 41 in the KHEA and 82 in the stapler group. Statistically significant differences were found in time to accomplish the anastomosis (mean 7.9 vs. 11.9 min, p < 0.001) and hospital costs (mean 46,569.71 vs. 50,915.35 CNY, p < 0.05) that differed between the KHEA and stapler group, respectively. No statistically significant difference was found in the mean delay to bowel function recovery (2.6 vs. 2.7 days, p = 0.466), duration of hospital stay (8.6 vs. 7.9 days, p = 0.407), or rate of postoperative complications (14.6% vs. 11.0%, p = 0.563). Anastomotic leakage occurred in 11 patients: 5 (12.2%) vs. 6 (7.3%) (p > 0.05) in the KHEA and stapler group, respectively.ConclusionKHEA is feasible and safe for anastomosis after laparoscopic left hemicolectomy. The KHEA technique could reduce operation time and hospital costs with complication rates comparable to stapling.
