Abstract
PURPOSE This study aims to compare laparoscopic versus open in ileostomy reversal techniques from multiple perspectives and to gain insight into the potential advantages and limitations of laparoscopic techniques and provide guidance on finding the best anastomosis for ileostomy reversal. METHODS This systematic review and meta-analysis has been pre-registered with PROSPERO. The registration number is CRD42025640754. A rigorous literature search was conducted across multiple databases, including Embase, PubMed, Cochrane Library, and China National Knowledge Infrastructure. The primary outcome measure was the incidence of overall postoperative complications, and the secondary outcomes included operative time, estimated blood loss, and the length hospital stay. RESULTS This research included 11 studies with a total of 867 cases, showing that the laparoscopic surgery group had a significantly lower overall complication rate compared to the open surgery group (OR = 0.40, 95% CI: 0.27-0.59, P < 0.00001). Further investigation of specific postoperative complications revealed that laparoscopic surgery significantly reduced the risk of bowel obstruction (OR = 0.39, 95% CI: 0.18-0.83, P = 0.01) and wound infection (OR = 0.41, 95% CI: 0.23-0.73, P = 0.003), with no significant difference observed for anastomotic leaks (OR = 0.40, 95% CI: 0.11-1.43, P = 0.16). Although laparoscopic surgery required a longer operative time (P = 0.002), it resulted in significantly shorter hospital stays (P < 0.00001) and did not increase estimated blood loss (P = 0.50). In addition, both extracorporeal laparoscopic surgery and intracorporeal laparoscopic surgery can effectively reduce the occurrence of postoperative complications and shorten the length of hospital stay compared with open surgery. CONCLUSION Laparoscopic-assisted ileostomy closure (both intracorporeal and extracorporeal techniques) demonstrates significant clinical benefits, including reduced postoperative complication rates, shortened hospitalization duration, and optimized recovery trajectories.

Abstract
As we all acknowledge benefits of ostomies, they can come with significant morbidity, quality of life issues, and major complications, especially during reversal procedures. In recent years, we have started to observe that similar graft and patient survival can be achieved without ostomies in certain cases. This observation and practice adopted in a few large-volume transplant centers opened a new discussion about the necessity of ostomies in intestinal transplantation. There is still more time and randomized studies will be needed to better understand and analyze the risk/benefits of "No-ostomy" approach in intestinal transplantation.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Several techniques have been proposed for the closure of loop ileostomy. This is the first study comparing bowel function and outcomes of two different hand-sewn surgical techniques used for the closure of diverting protective loop ileostomy. METHOD In this prospective, randomized, double-blind clinical trial, 40 patients with a history of rectal cancer, low anterior resection, and diverting loop ileostomy who were candidates for ileostomy reversal were included and randomly assigned into two groups, hand-sewn direct repair of the ileal defect (group A) and resection and hand-sewn anastomosis of the ileum (group B). RESULTS The mean age of patients was 56.42 and 52.10 years in groups A and B, respectively. Regarding early postoperative period, group A developed earlier first gas passage (1.68 vs. 2.25 days, p = 0.041) and stool passage (2.10 vs. 2.80 days, p = 0.032). Group A also revealed shorter operating time (83.68 vs. 89.50 min, p = 0.040) and hospital stay (4.73 vs. 6.80 days, p = 0.001). None of the participants in both groups developed signs of bowel obstruction during the early and late postoperative follow-up period. CONCLUSIONS Direct hand-sewn repair for the closure of diverting loop ileostomy is a safe technique with better postoperative bowel function, oral diet tolerance, and less hospital stay compared to resection and hand-sewn anastomosis of the ileum.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In patients with ulcerative colitis who undergo IPAA, a diverting ileostomy is used to diminish the severity of anastomotic complications. Typically, the ileostomy is closed after an interval of 2 to 4 months. The safety of earlier closure of the ileostomy after pouch surgery is unknown. OBJECTIVE This study aimed to compare postoperative outcomes in patients randomly assigned to early (7-12 days) or late (≥8 weeks) ileostomy closure after ileal pouch construction. DESIGN This was a multicenter, prospective randomized trial. SETTING The study was conducted at colorectal surgical units at select United States hospitals. PATIENTS Adults with ulcerative colitis who underwent 2- or 3-stage proctocolectomy with IPAA were included. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES The primary outcomes included Comprehensive Complication Index at 30 days after ileostomy closure. The secondary outcomes included complications, severe complications, reoperations, and readmissions within 30 days of ileostomy closure. RESULTS The trial was stopped after interim analysis because of a high rate of complications after early ileostomy closure. Among 36 patients analyzed, 1 patient (3%) had unplanned proctectomy with end-ileostomy. Of the remaining 35 patients, 28 patients (80%) were clinically eligible for early closure and underwent radiologic assessment. There were 3 radiologic failures. Of the 25 remaining patients, 22 patients (88%) were randomly assigned to early closure (n = 10) or late closure (n = 12), and 3 patients were excluded. Median Comprehensive Complication Index was 14.8 (0-54) and 0 (0-23) after early and late closure (p = 0.02). One or more complications occurred in 7 patients (70%) after early closure and in 2 patients (17%) after late closure (p = 0.01)' and complications were severe in 3 patients (30%) after early closure and 0 patients after late closure (p = 0.04). Reoperation was required in 1 patient (10%) and 0 patients (p = 0.26) after early closure and readmission was required in 7 patients (70%) and 1 patient (8%) after late closure (p = 0.003). LIMITATIONS This study was limited by early study closure and selection bias. CONCLUSIONS Early closure of a diverting ileostomy in patients with ulcerative colitis who underwent IPAA is associated with an unacceptably high rate of complications.

ALTA TASA DE COMPLICACIONES DESPUS DEL CIERRE PRECOZ DE LA ILEOSTOMA TERMINACIN TEMPRANA DEL ENSAYO ALEATORIZADO DE INTERVALO CORTO VERSUS LARGO PARA LA REVERSIN DE LA ILEOSTOMA EN ASA DESPUS DE LA CIRUGA DE RESERVORIO ILEAL ANTECEDENTES:En los pacientes con colitis ulcerosa que se someten a una anastomosis del reservorio ileoanal, se utiliza una ileostomía de derivación para disminuir la gravedad de las complicaciones de la anastomosis. Por lo general, la ileostomía se cierra después de un intervalo de 2 a 4 meses. Se desconoce la seguridad del cierre más temprano de la ileostomía después de la cirugía de reservorio.OBJETIVO:Comparar los resultados posoperatorios en pacientes asignados al azar al cierre temprano (7-12 días) o tardío (≥ 8 semanas) de la ileostomía después de la construcción de un reservorio ileal.DISEÑO:Este fue un ensayo aleatorizado prospectivo multicéntrico.ESCENARIO:El estudio se realizó en unidades quirúrgicas colorrectales en hospitales seleccionados de los Estados Unidos.PACIENTES:Se incluyeron adultos con colitis ulcerosa que se sometieron a proctocolectomía en 2 o 3 tiempos con anastomosis ileoanal con reservorio.PRINCIPALES MEDIDAS DE RESULTADO:Los resultados primarios incluyeron el Índice Integral de Complicaciones a los 30 días después del cierre de la ileostomía. Los resultados secundarios incluyeron complicaciones, complicaciones graves, reoperaciones y readmisiones dentro de los 30 días posteriores al cierre de la ileostomía.RESULTADOS:El ensayo se detuvo después del análisis interino debido a una alta tasa de complicaciones después del cierre temprano de la ileostomía. Entre los 36 pacientes analizados, 1 (3%) tuvo una proctectomía no planificada con ileostomía terminal. De los 35 pacientes restantes, 28 (80%) fueron clínicamente elegibles para el cierre temprano y se sometieron a una evaluación radiológica. Hubo 3 fracasos radiológicos. De los 25 pacientes restantes, 22 (88 %) se asignaron al azar a cierre temprano (n = 10) o tardío (n = 12) y 3 fueron excluidos. La mediana del Índice Integral de Complicaciones fue de 14,8 (0-54) y 0 (0-23) después del cierre temprano y tardío (p = 0,02). Una o más complicaciones ocurrieron en 7 pacientes (70%) después del cierre temprano y 2 (17%) pacientes después del cierre tardío (p = 0,01) y fueron graves en 3 (30%) y 0 pacientes, respectivamente (p = 0,04). Requirieron reintervención en 1 (10%) y 0 (p = 0,26) y reingreso en 7 (70%) y 1 (8%) pacientes (p = 0,003).LIMITACIONES:Este estudio estuvo limitado por el cierre temprano del estudio; sesgo de selección.CONCLUSIONES:El cierre temprano de una ileostomía de derivación en pacientes con colitis ulcerosa con anastomosis de reservorio ileoanal se asocia con una tasa inaceptablemente alta de complicaciones.

Abstract
PURPOSE Ostomy creation is often an integral part of the surgical management of various diseases including colorectal malignancies and inflammatory bowel disease. Stoma and peristomal complications may occur in up to 70% of patients following ostomy surgery. The aim of this scoping literature review was to synthesize evidence on the risk factors for developing complications following creation of a fecal ostomy. DESIGN Scoping literature review. SEARCH STRATEGY Two independent researchers completed a search of the online bibliographic databases PubMed, MEDLINE, Cochrane, Google Scholar, and EMBASE for all articles published between January 1980 and December 2018. The search comprised multiple elements including systematic literature reviews with meta-analysis of pooled findings, randomized controlled trials, cohort studies, observational studies, other types of review articles, and multiple case reports. We screened 307 unique titles and abstracts; 68 articles met our eligibility criteria for inclusion. The methodological rigor of study quality included in our scoping review was variable. FINDINGS/CONCLUSIONS We identified 6 risk factors associated with an increased likelihood of stoma or peristomal complications (1) age more than 65 years; (2) female sex; (3) body mass index more than 25; (4) diabetes mellitus as a comorbid condition; (5) abdominal malignancy as the underlying reason for ostomy surgery; and (6) lack of preoperative stoma site marking and WOC/ostomy nurse specialist care prior to stoma surgery. We also found evidence that persons with a colostomy are at a higher risk for prolapse and parastomal hernia. IMPLICATIONS Health care professionals should consider these risk factors when caring for patients undergoing fecal ostomy surgery and manage modifiable factors whenever possible. For example, preoperative stoma site marking by an ostomy nurse or surgeon familiar with this task, along with careful perioperative ostomy care and education of the patient by an ostomy nurse specialist, are essential to reduce the risk of modifiable risk factors related to creation of a fecal ostomy.

Abstract
PURPOSE Loop ileostomy is performed in rectal cancer surgery to decrease the impact of anastomotic leak but it is associated with a significant complication rate. This study aimed to analyze the morbidity related to diverting ileostomy and to identify factors predictive of complications related to stoma management and reversal, as well as conversion into a permanent ileostomy. METHODS A retrospective study was conducted on 112 patients submitted to oncological rectal resection and defunctioning ileostomy in a Portuguese colorectal unit between March 2012 and March 2019. RESULTS Loop ileostomy was responsible for 13% of index surgery morbidity and 15% of patients' readmissions due to high output, stoma stenosis and parastomal hernia. Ileostomy was reversed in 89% cases with 7% Clavien-Dindo ≥ IIIb complications. An association was established between diabetes and higher stoma management morbidity (OR: 3.28 [95% CI: 1.039-10.426]. p = 0.041). Likewise, diabetes (OR: 0.17 [95% CI: 0.038; 6.90], p=0.015), oncological disease stage ≥ III (OR: 0.10 [95% CI: 0.005; 0.656], p=0.047) and index rectal surgery morbidity (OR: 0.23 [95% CI: 0.052; 0.955], p=0.041) were associated with less ileostomy closure. Complications of the index surgery also related to higher stoma reversal morbidity (OR: 5.11 [95% CI: 1.665; 16.346], p=0.005). CONCLUSIONS Diabetes and complications of index rectal surgery were identified as predictive of ileostomy morbidity, closure rate and associated complications. It is essential to adjust treatment decisions to patient's morbidity risk and adopt a more selective approach concerning the use of an ileostomy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The optimal timing for ileostomy closure remains controversial, most of the surgeons are closing ileostomy after two to three months, although ileostomy closure considered a simple procedure, it can cause significant morbidity; this study aims to clarify any relation between the post-closure complications rate and the time from its creation to the repair. METHOD From January 2010 to December 2017, data retrieved for a 405 patients who had protective ileostomy closure after rectal cancer surgery, our sample has been enrolled into two arms, the first arm includes whose ileostomies closed at or before three months, and the second arm involved whose ileostomies closed after three months from the index surgery, statistical analysis was performed and compared in both arms, RESULT: The overall post-closure complications in our hospital was 23.7%, there was no significant difference between the overall complications rate for both early and late closure groups (26.8% and 22.7%) respectively (P = 0.499), The majority of the complications were intestinal obstruction, and superficial surgical site infection, there was no significant association between the interval to ileostomy reversal and the intestinal obstruction although it was higher in the late closure group, in the other hand the surgical site infection complication found to be significantly higher in the early closure group than the late closure group (15.4% Vs 5.1%) with (P = 0.002). CONCLUSION The duration between the creation of protective ileostomy and its reversal was not a significant independent predictor of post-closure complications rate.

Lord I, Reeves L, Gray A, Woodfield J, Clifford K, Thompson-Fawcett M. Loop ileostomy closure: a retrospective comparison of three techniques. ANZ J Surg 2020; 90:1632-1636. [PMID: 32419283 DOI: 10.1111/ans.15922] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/08/2020] [Revised: 03/03/2020] [Accepted: 04/09/2020] [Indexed: 11/29/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Loop ileostomy (LI) formation is a common practice for patients undergoing low anterior resection or restorative ileo-anal pouch surgery. Ileostomy closure can be performed using a stapled or hand-sewn technique, with or without resection. If hand-sewn, the closure can be one or two layers. Randomized controlled trials have not demonstrated one technique to be superior, and meta-analyses are limited by the heterogeneity of published studies. Our primary aim is to compare stapled ileostomy closure with single- and two-layer hand-sewn closures. METHODS This retrospective, single-centre cohort study included patients undergoing LI closure between January 1999 and April 2016. Patient demographics, anastomotic technique, operative time and patient outcomes were collected. RESULTS Our analysis included 244 patients (median age 67 years, 43.4% female). There were no significant differences in mean operative times (71.5, 73.1 and 88.5 min, for stapled, single- and two-layer hand-sewn closures, respectively, adjusted overall P = 0.262), or morbidity (21.5% versus 20.4% versus 17.6%, adjusted overall P = 0.934) between stapled or hand-sewn anastomoses, and no mortality. Once adjusting for age, sex, American College of Anaesthesiology grade, and consultant surgeon, the length of stay was different (overall P = 0.034), being similar between stapled and single-layer closures (4.2 versus 5.5 days, P = 0.105), but significantly different between stapled and two-layer closures (4.2 versus 8.3 days, P = 0.026). CONCLUSION Stapled and single-layered hand-sewn closures are similar in length of procedure, length of stay and complication rates. A two-layer, hand-sewn technique is associated with a significant increase in stay compared to a stapled ileostomy closure.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Opinion is divided on the optimal technique of skin closure after stoma reversal as most conventional techniques compromise either on speed/neatness of wound apposition or on the incidence of surgical site infection (SSI). Evidence suggests that purse-string skin closure (PSSC) may achieve both objectives. This study aims to compare conventional primary closure (PC) with PSSC to determine the efficacious technique for stoma wound closure. METHODS Patients undergoing stoma reversal between April 2015 and September 2017 were prospectively studied. Patients were divided into two groups based on the technique of skin closure (PC or PSSC). The following parameters were assessed: SSI, hospital stay, additional outpatient visit, wound healing time and patient satisfaction based on a standardised questionnaire. RESULTS Forty one patients underwent stoma reversal (20 PSSC vs 21 PC). Wound infection, need for wound care, length of hospital stay, healing time and scar size were significantly less, whereas average patient wound satisfaction scores were significantly more in the PSSC group. CONCLUSION Purse-string skin closure (PSSC) proves efficacious and hence merits adoption as the technique of choice for closure of stoma wounds.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Temporary ileostomy during intestinal transplantation (ITx) is the standard technique for allograft monitoring. A detailed analysis of the ITx ileostomy has never been reported. METHODS A retrospective review of a single-center ITx database was performed. The analysis was divided into ileostomy formation and takedown episodes. RESULTS One hundred thirty-five grafts underwent ileostomy formation, and 79 underwent ileostomy takedown. Median age at ITx was 7.7 years and weight was 23 kg. Allograft types were intestine (22%), liver/intestine (55%), multivisceral (16%), and modified multivisceral (7%). Sixty-four percent had 1-stage ITx, whereas 36% required 2-staged ITx. Final ileostomy types were end (20%), loop (10%), distal blowhole (59%), and proximal blowhole (11%). Ileostomy formation: Thirty-one grafts had complications (23%), including prolapse (26%), ischemia (16%), and parastomal hernia (19%). Twelve required surgical revision. There were no significant differences in graft type, ileostomy type, survival, and ileostomy takedown rate between grafts with and without complications. Colon inclusive grafts had higher complication rates (P = 0.002). Ileostomy takedown: Ileostomy takedown occurred at a median of 422 days post-ITx. Twenty-five complications occurred after 22 takedowns (28%), including small bowel obstruction (27%) and abscess (18%). Fifteen grafts required surgical correction. Recipients with complications had longer hospital stay (17 versus 9 d; P = 0.001) than those without complications. Graft type, ileostomy type, and survival were not different. CONCLUSIONS The first of its kind analysis of the surgical ileostomy after ITx reveals that most recipients can undergo successful ileostomy formation/takedown, complication rates are significant but within an acceptable range, and complications do not affect survival. This study demonstrates that the routine use of transplant ostomies remains an acceptable practice after ITx. However, true analysis of risk and benefit will require a randomized control trial.

Abstract
PURPOSE Incisional hernia following closure of loop ileostomy is a common problem. Assessment of the proportion of this complication is limited by small sample size and inconsistent reporting. The aim of this review was to provide an estimate of the proportion of incisional hernia following closure of loop ileostomy according to clinical and radiological diagnostic criteria and to investigate the association of bibliometric and study quality parameters with reported proportion. METHODS A systematic review of PubMed, Embase, CENTRAL, ISRCTN Registry and Open Grey from 2000 onwards was performed according to PRISMA standards. Reporting on the type of stoma and mesh reinforcement after closure was mandatory for inclusion, whereas studies on paediatric populations were excluded. Fixed effect or random effects models were used to calculate pooled proportion estimates. Meta-regression models were formed to explore potential heterogeneity. RESULTS 42 studies with 7166 patients were included. The pooled estimate of the proportion of incisional hernia after ileostomy closure was 6.1% (95% confidence interval, CI 4.4-8.3%). Proportion estimates for higher quality studies and studies reporting on incisional hernia as primary outcome were 9.0% (95% CI 6.3-12.7%) and 13.1% (95% CI 8.8-19.1%). Significant between-study heterogeneity was identified (P < 0.001, I2 = 87%) and the likelihood of publication bias was high (P = 0.028). Mixed effects regression showed that both year of publication (P = 0.034, Q = 4.484, df = 1.000) and defining hernia as a primary outcome (Q = 20.298, P < 0.001) were related to effect size. Method of follow-up and quality of the studies affected the proportion. CONCLUSION The proportion of incisional hernia at ileostomy closure site is estimated at 6.1%. Reporting incisional hernia as primary or secondary outcome, the method of diagnosis, the year of publication and methodological quality are associated with reported proportion.

Abstract
PURPOSE Despite the benefits of a loop ileostomy after total mesorectal excision (TME), it carries a significant associated morbidity. A "virtual ileostomy" (VI) has been proposed to avoid ileostomies in low-risk patients, which could then be converted into a real ileostomy (RI) in the event of anastomotic leak (AL). The aim of the present study is to evaluate safety and efficacy of VI associated with early endoscopy in patients undergoing rectal surgery with anastomosis to detect subclinical AL prior to the onset of clinical symptoms for sepsis. METHODS This is a single-center, retrospective study of a consecutive series of patients undergoing elective or emergent colorectal surgery with low or ultralow colorectal or ileorectal anastomosis between September 2015 and September 2016. RESULTS We included 44 consecutive, unselected patients. Eight patients (18.2%) required conversion into RI and one required terminal colostomy because of AL, of whom 44.4% were asymptomatic and AL was detected with early endoscopy. Fashioning of RI was not associated with further morbidity. All patients with AL converted into RI (n = 8/9) (88.9%), had adequate healed anastomosis, and later underwent stoma closure with no complications. A stoma was avoided in 79.6% of VI. Endoscopy was associated with 55% sensitivity and 100% specificity, with a global accuracy of 88%. CONCLUSIONS The combination of VI with early postoperative endoscopy could avoid unnecessary ileostomies in patients with low or ultralow anastomoses and reveal AL before the onset of symptoms, thus reducing associated morbidity.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Postoperative ileus (POI) is regarded as the most clinically significant morbidity following loop ileostomy closure; however, its incidence remains poorly understood. Our objective was therefore to determine the pooled incidence of POI after loop ileostomy closure and identify risk factors associated with its development. METHODS We systematically searched MEDLINE (via Ovid and PubMed), Embase, the Cochrane Library, Biosis Previews, and Scopus to identify studies reporting the incidence of POI in patients who underwent loop ileostomy closure. Two independent reviewers extracted data and appraised study quality. Cumulative incidence proportions were pooled across studies using a random-effects meta-analytic model. RESULTS Sixty-seven studies, including 9528 patients, met our inclusion criteria. The pooled estimate of POI was 8.0% (95% CI 6.9-9.3%; I2 = 74%). The estimated incidence varied by POI definition: studies with a robust definition of POI (n = 8) demonstrated the highest estimate of POI (12.4%, 95% CI 9.2-16.5%; I2 = 79%) while studies that did not report an explicit POI definition (n = 38) demonstrated the lowest estimate (6.7%, 95% CI 5.3-8.3%; I2 = 61%). Small bowel anastomosis technique (hand-sewn) and interval time from ileostomy creation to closure (longer time) were the factors most commonly associated with POI after loop ileostomy closure. However, most comparative studies were not powered to examine risk factors for POI. CONCLUSIONS POI is an important complication after loop ileostomy closure, and its incidence is dependent on its definition. More research aimed at studying this complication is required to better understand risk factors for POI after loop ileostomy closure.

Abstract
AIM Stoma reversal might lead to a stoma site incisional hernia. Recently, prophylactic mesh reinforcement of the stoma site has gained increased attention, supporting the need for accurate data on the incidence of and risk factors for stoma site incisional hernia and to identify high-risk patients. The aim of this study was to assess incidence, risk factors and prevention of stoma site incisional hernias. METHOD Embase, MEDLINE, Web of Science, Cochrane and Google Scholar databases were searched. Studies reporting the incidence of stoma site incisional hernia after stoma reversal were included. Study quality was assessed with the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale and Cochrane risk of bias tool. Data on incidence, risk factors and prophylactic mesh reinforcement were extracted. RESULTS Of 1440 articles found, 33 studies comprising 4679 reversals were included. The overall incidence of incisional hernia was 6.5% [range 0%-38%, median follow-up 27.5 (17.54-36) months]. Eleven studies assessed stoma site incisional hernia as the primary end-point, showing an incidence of 17.7% [range 1.7%-36.1%, median follow-up 28 (15.25-51.70) months]. Body mass index, diabetes and surgery for malignant disease were found to be independent risk factors, as derived from eight studies. Two retrospective comparative cohort studies showed significantly lower rates of stoma site incisional hernia with prophylactic mesh reinforcement compared with nonmesh controls [6.4% vs 36.1% (P = 0.001); 3% vs 19% (P = 0.04)]. CONCLUSION Stoma site incisional hernia should not be underestimated as a long-term problem. Body mass index, diabetes and malignancy seem to be potential risk factors. Currently, limited data are available on the outcomes of prophylactic mesh reinforcement to prevent stoma site incisional hernia.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Some evidence suggests that primary anastomosis following left sided colorectal resection in the emergency setting may be safe in selected patients, and confer favourable outcomes to permanent enterostomy. The aim of this study was to compare the major postoperative complication rate in patients undergoing end stoma vs primary anastomosis following emergency left sided colorectal resection. METHODS A pre-planned analysis of the European Society of Coloproctology 2017 audit. Adult patients (> 16 years) who underwent emergency (unplanned, within 24 h of hospital admission) left sided colonic or rectal resection were included. The primary endpoint was the 30-day major complication rate (Clavien-Dindo grade 3 to 5). RESULTS From 591 patients, 455 (77%) received an end stoma, 103 a primary anastomosis (17%) and 33 primary anastomosis with defunctioning stoma (6%). In multivariable models, anastomosis was associated with a similar major complication rate to end stoma (adjusted odds ratio for end stoma 1.52, 95%CI 0.83-2.79, P = 0.173). Although a defunctioning stoma was not associated with reduced anastomotic leak (12% defunctioned [4/33] vs 13% not defunctioned [13/97], adjusted odds ratio 2.19, 95%CI 0.43-11.02, P = 0.343), it was associated with less severe complications (75% [3/4] with defunctioning stoma, 86.7% anastomosis only [13/15]), a lower mortality rate (0% [0/4] vs 20% [3/15]), and fewer reoperations (50% [2/4] vs 73% [11/15]) when a leak did occur. CONCLUSIONS Primary anastomosis in selected patients appears safe after left sided emergency colorectal resection. A defunctioning stoma might mitigate against risk of subsequent complications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of irrigating the surgical site with 0.05% chlorhexidine gluconate (CHG) on surgical site infection (SSI) in temporary loop ileostomy closure. METHODS In this observational cohort, patients who underwent diverting loop ileostomy and elective ileostomy closure for any reason between September 2014 and July 2016 were enrolled. Irrigation of the surgical site with 0.05% CHG or saline were compared regarding post-operative incision complications. Infection risk was estimated by the National Nosocomial Infection Surveillance System (NNIS) and Study of the Effect of Nosocomial Infection Control (SENIC) scores. Post-operative follow-up was performed by a surgeon blinded to the treatment. Diagnosis of SSI was recorded according to the Guidelines for Prevention of Surgical Site Infection. Wound healing was evaluated by the Additional treatment, Serous discharge, Erythema, Purulent exudate, Separation of the deep tissues, Isolation of bacteria, and the duration of inpatient Stay (ASEPSIS) score. RESULTS There were 122 patients meeting the inclusion criteria: 60 in the saline (control) and 62 in the CHG (study) group. The mean age was 56.5 ± 13.5 (standard deviation [SD]); 74 patients were male. The groups were similar regarding age, sex, indication for ileostomy, neoadjuvant therapies, and SENIC and ASEPSIS scores. The overall SSI rate was 18%: 19 patients (31.6%) in the control group and 3 (4.8%) patients in the study group (p < 0.001). The mean ASEPSIS score was higher in the control group (12.8 ± 17.7) than in the study group (3.7 ± 7.8) (p < 0.001). Patients in the control group had significantly higher rates of seroma (13.3% vs 1.6%; p = 0.014) and incision dehiscence (31.6% and 4.8%; p = 0.001). Time to healing was 9.9 ± 5.1 days in the control group and 7.3 ± 5.3 days in the study group (p = 0.007). CONCLUSIONS Irrigation of the incision with 0.05% CHG reduces the SSI rate compared with saline irrigation. There is a need for randomized and wider trials to clarify the effect and standards of incision irrigation.

Abstract
Background Ileostomy construction is a common procedure but can be associated with morbidity. The stoma is commonly secured to the skin using transcutaneous sutures. It is hypothesized that intracutaneous sutures result in a tighter adherence of the peristomal skin to the stoma plate to prevent faecal leakage. The study aimed to compare the effect of intracutaneous versus transcutaneous suturing of ileostomies on faecal leakage and quality of life. Methods This randomized trial was undertaken in 11 hospitals in the Netherlands. Patients scheduled to receive an ileostomy for any reason were randomized to intracutaneous or transcutaneous suturing (IC and TC groups respectively). The primary outcome was faecal leakage. Secondary outcomes were stoma‐related quality of life and costs of stoma‐related materials and reinterventions. Results Between April 2011 and February 2016, 339 patients were randomized to the IC (170) or TC (169) group. Leakage rates were higher in the IC than in the TC group (52·4 versus 41·4 per cent respectively; risk difference 11·0 (95 per cent c.i. 0·3 to 21·2) per cent). Skin irritation rates were high (78·2 versus 72·2 per cent), but did not differ significantly between the groups (risk difference 6·1 (95 per cent c.i. –3·2 to 15·10) per cent). There were no significant differences in quality of life or costs between the groups. Conclusion Intracutaneous suturing of an ileostomy is associated with more peristomal leakage than transcutaneous suturing. Overall stoma‐related complications did not differ between the two techniques. Registration number: NTR2369 (

Abstract
Small bowel obstruction (SBO) often occurs after total proctocolectomy and ileal pouch anal anastomosis with diverting loop‐ileostomy for ulcerative colitis. Little is known about the association between SBO and surgical procedures for diverting loop‐ileostomy. We conducted a multicenter, retrospective questionnaire survey. Unlinkable anonymized data on ileostomy procedures and ileostomy‐related complications including SBO were collected from institutions specializing in surgery for inflammatory bowel disease. In total, 515 patients undergoing total proctocolectomy and ileal pouch anal anastomosis with loop‐ileostomy among 1022 patients with ulcerative colitis undergoing surgery during a 3‐year period between 2012 and 2014 were analyzed. Twenty‐nine patients without information on complications were excluded. Incidence of ileostomy‐related complications and factors associated with the development of small bowel obstruction were determined in 486 patients. The most common complications were parastomal dermatitis (n=169, 34.8%), SBO (n=111, 22.8%), mucocutaneous dehiscence (n=59, 12.1%), stoma prolapse (n=21, 4.3%), parastomal hernia (n=12, 2.5%), and stoma retraction (n=11, 2.3%). Incidence of small bowel obstruction was significantly higher in patients with distance from the ileal pouch to the ileostomy of less than 30 cm and in patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery. Procedures for diverting loop‐ileostomy after surgery for ulcerative colitis varied among institutions. Incidence of small bowel obstruction was high after total proctocolectomy and ileal pouch anal anastomosis with diverting loop‐ileostomy. Shorter distance between the pouch and the stoma and the laparoscopic surgery were risk factors for SBO in univariate analysis.

Abstract
Background and Aims: Loop ileostomies are frequently used as diversion of the fecal stream to protect a distal anastomosis. The aim of this study was to identify complications and morbidity related to loop ileostomies in patients with ulcerative colitis at a nonemergent setting. Material and Methods: Consecutive patients with ulcerative colitis who received a loop ileostomy at a tertiary referral center in Sweden from January 2006 until December 2012 were included and studied retrospectively. Results: In total, 71 patients were identified, and the median age was 39 years. A majority (94%) of the patients underwent proctectomy or proctocolectomy with primary construction of an ileal pouch–anal anastomosis. In total, 38 patients (54%) had one or more postoperative complications at index surgery. Stoma-related complications were seen in 49% where parastomal skin irritation was most common. In total, 18% of the patients were re-admitted due to morbidity related to the ileostomy, and the leading cause was high volume output. Complications related to closure were seen in 29% of the patients, and of these, 30% required surgical intervention. In total, five patients (7%) developed a symptomatic leakage in the ileo-ileal anastomosis. There was no mortality. Conclusion: Loop ileostomies in this young patient cohort resulted in considerable morbidity. Closure of the ileostomy was also associated with complications. Although the diverting loop ileostomy is constructed to decrease the clinical consequences of an anastomotic leakage, the inherent morbidity should be considered. Preventive measures for parastomal skin problems could improve results.

Abstract
Background and Objectives: Dehydration is a common complication after ileostomy creation and is the most frequent reason for postoperative readmission to the hospital. We sought to determine the clinical and economic impact of an outpatient intervention to decrease readmissions for dehydration after ileostomy creation. Methods: All new ileostomates from 09/2011 through 10/2012 at the University of Florida were enrolled to receive an ileostomy education and management protocol and a daily telephone call for 3 weeks after discharge. Counseling and medication adjustments were provided, with a satisfaction survey at the end. Outcomes of these patients were compared to those in a historical control cohort. A cost analysis was conducted to calculate the savings to the hospital. Results: Thirty-eight patients were enrolled. All patients required telephone counseling, and the mean satisfaction score rating was 4.69, on a scale of 1 to 5. The readmission rate for dehydration within 30 days of discharge decreased significantly from 65% before intervention to 16% (5/32 patients) after intervention (P = .002). The length of readmission hospital stay decreased from a mean of 4.2 days before the introduction of the intervention to 3 days after. Cost analysis revealed that the actual total hospital cost of dehydration-specific readmission decreased from $88,858 to $25,037, a saving of $63,821. Conclusion: A standardized ileostomy pathway with comprehensive patient education and outpatient telephone follow-up is cost effective, has a positive influence on patient satisfaction, and reduces dehydration-related readmission rates.

Abstract
The umbilicus, a natural orifice, which is used as an access port during laparoscopic surgery, can be used as a stoma site with potential superior cosmetic results as one less incision is then required. Our objective was to assess the efficacy and safety of the umbilical stoma in a selected group of patients. This is a prospective case series in hospital patients admitted as emergency or elective. Patients who underwent laparoscopic colorectal surgery with a planned ileostomy at Box Hill Hospital were approached and invited to participate in the study, with the stoma being fashioned on the umbilicus. Outcomes of interest included demographics, the details regarding the original indication for operation, operative and hospital related outcomes, postoperative bowel related complications, and other surgical and medical complications. Outcomes of a total of 10 (5 males) patients who underwent umbilical covering ileostomy during the study period were analyzed. Two patients with ulcerative colitis had the second stage of their operation converting their end stomas to loop stoma. These were counted twice, totaling 12 stomas in 10 patients. Three patients had their umbistomas after receiving neoadjuvant treatment for rectal cancer. The median period patients have had umbistomas is 113 days. Overall morbidity during the initial operation was low, except for 1 patient who had a small bowel injury. There was no mortality. Minor peristomal skin changes were the most common postoperative complication. Three patients had their stomas reversed with excellent cosmesis. Umbistomas appear to be a safe and effective way to fashion covering stomas post laparoscopic surgery and save the patient an added incision with excellent cosmetic results.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Postoperative ileus (POI) is one of the most common reasons for sustained hospital stays after ileostomy repair. Although many factors have been investigated as POI risk factors, the investigation of the impact of prior abdominal surgery (PAS) before rectal cancer surgery has been limited. This study aimed to identify the impact of PAS as a risk factor for POI after ileostomy repair. MATERIAL AND METHODS A total of 220 consecutive patients with rectal cancer who underwent ileostomy repair were enrolled. The patients were divided into PAS-positive and PAS-negative groups according to the history of PAS before rectal cancer surgery. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to identify the clinicopathological factors associated with POI. RESULTS The PAS-positive group had a longer operation time (111 min vs. 93.4 min, p=0.029) and a greater length of hospital stay (10 days vs. 7.8 days, p=0.003) compared with the PAS-negative group. POI was more frequent in the PAS-positive group (23.1% vs. 6.2%, p=0.011). The POI rate in the entire cohort was 8.1%. The repair method (stapled side-to-side vs. hand-sewn end-to-end, odds ratio OR=3.6, 95% confidence interval CI=1.2-11.1, p=0.022) and PAS (odds ratio=4.0, 95% confidence interval=1.2-12.8, p=0.017) were significant predictors of POI in the multivariate analysis. CONCLUSIONS This study suggests that PAS before rectal cancer surgery is associated with POI after ileostomy repair.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Anastomotic leakage is a major complication after restorative proctocolectomy with ileal pouch-anal anastomosis [IPAA]. Identification of patients at high risk of leakage may influence surgical decision making. The aim of this study was to identify risk factors associated with anastomotic leakage after restorative proctocolectomy with IPAA. METHODS Between September 1990 and January 2015, patients who underwent IPAA for inflammatory bowel disease [IBD] were identified from prospectively maintained databases of three tertiary referral centres. Retrospective chart review identified additional data on demographic and surgical variables. Multivariable regression models were developed to identify risk factors for anastomotic leakage. Separate analyses were performed for type of procedure. RESULTS A total of 640 patients [56.9% male] were included, with a median age of 38 years [interquartile range 29-48]; 96 [15.0%] patients developed anastomotic leakage. Multivariable regression analysis demonstrated that being overweight (body mass index [BMI] > 25], (odds ratio [OR] 1.92; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.15 - 3.18), and American Society of Anesthesiologists classification [ASA score > 2] [OR 1.91; 95% CI 1.03 - 3.54] were independent risk factors for anastomotic leakage in patients who underwent a completion proctectomy. A disease course of > 5 years [OR 2.34; 95% CI 1.42 - 3.87] and concurrent combination of anti-tumour necrosis factor [TNF] and steroids [OR 6.40; 95% CI 1.76 - 23.20] were independent risk factors for anastomotic leakage in patients who underwent a proctocolectomy and IPAA. CONCLUSIONS Independent risk factors for anastomotic leakage in IBD patients undergoing IPAA are BMI >25, ASA score >2, disease course > 5 years, and concurrent steroid and anti-TNF treatment, with a different risk profile for one-stage proctocolectomy and completion proctectomy procedures.

Abstract
PURPOSE Data regarding length of hospital stay of patients undergoing ileostomy reversal are very heterogeneous. There are many factors that may have an influence on the length of postoperative hospital stay, such as postoperative wound infections. One potential strategy to reduce their incidence and to decrease hospital stay is to insert subcutaneous suction drains. The purpose of this study was to examine the influence of the insertion of subcutaneous suction drains on hospital stay and postoperative wound infections in ileostomy reversal. Risk factors for postoperative wound infection were determined. METHODS This is a randomized controlled two-center non-inferiority trial with two parallel groups. The total length of hospital stay as primary endpoint and the occurrence of a surgical site infection, the colonization of the abdominal wall with bacteria, and the occurrence of hematomas/seromas as secondary endpoints were monitored. RESULTS One hundred eighteen patients with elective ileostomy reversal were included. Fifty-nine patients were randomly assigned to insertion of a subcutaneous suction drain, and 59 patients were randomly assigned to receive no drain. After 3 months of follow-up, 50 patients in the group with drain and 53 patients in the group without drain could be analyzed. Median total length of hospital stay was 8 days in the SD group and 9 days in the group without SD (p = 0.17). Fourteen percent of patients with SD and 17 % without SD developed SSI, p = 0.68. Multivariate analysis revealed anemia (p < 0.01), intraoperative bowel perforation (p = 0.02) and resident (p = 0.04) or fellow (p = 0.048) performing the operation as risk factors for SSI. CONCLUSIONS This trial shows that the omission of subcutaneous suction drains is not inferior to the use of subcutaneous suction drains after ileostomy reversal in terms of length of hospital stay, surgical site infections, and hematomas/seromas.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Closure of a loop ileostomy is a relatively simple procedure although many studies have demonstrated high morbidity rates following it. Methods to reduce the number of complications, such as timing of closure or different surgical closure techniques, are investigated. The aim of this study was to evaluate the experience of the Abdominal Surgery Center at Vilnius University Hospital (VUH) 'Santariskiu klinikos' to review the complications after closure of loop ileostomy and to identify potential risk factors for postoperative complications. METHODS Data from 132 patients who underwent closure of loop ileostomy from 2003 to 2013 at the Abdominal Surgery Center of VUH were collected, including demographics, causes of ileostomy formation, additional diseases, time from creation to closure of ileostomy, anastomotic technique, duration of the operation, postoperative complications, and hospital stay after surgery. The operations were performed by 15 surgeons with varying experience assisted by surgical residents. Experience in ileostomy closure was defined by the number of procedures performed. RESULTS Complications occurred in 24 patients (18.2%), with 20 of them having surgical complications: bowel obstruction (9 (6.8%)), wound infection (4 (3.0%)), peritonitis due to anastomotic leak (3 (2.3%)), intra-abdominal abscess (2 (1.5%)), anastomotic leak with enterocutaneous fistula (1 (0.76%)), and bleeding (1 (0.76%)). 4 patients had non-surgical complications: postoperative diarrhea (2 (1.5%)), urinary retention (1 (0.76%)), and deep vein thrombosis (1 (0.76%)). Most complications were classified as group II according to the Clavien-Dindo classification. 2 patients died (1.5%). The anastomotic technique used did not affect the outcome. The experience of the surgeon as judged by the frequency of the procedure was the main factor affecting postoperative morbidity significantly (p = 0.03). CONCLUSION Our study revealed that the rate of postoperative complications and a smooth postoperative course after the closure of ileostomy was influenced by surgical experience.

Abstract
AIM: To describe a surgical method using the linear cutting stapler in transverse lumen colostomy apothesis.
METHODS: Clinical data for 76 patients who underwent transverse lumen colostomy apothesis, including 37 cases receiving extraperitoneal stoma apothesis surgery (control group) and 39 cases receiving colostomy apotheosis using a linear cutting stapler (observation group), from December 2012 to December 2014 at Department of General Surgery, Cancer Hospital of Zhengzhou University were analyzed retrospectively in terms of operative time, blood loss, postoperative complications, postoperative mortality, and time to postoperative exhaust/defecation.
RESULTS: No perioperative deaths occurred. The operative time, blood loss and time to postoperative exhaust/defecation did not differ significantly between the two groups. The overall incidence of postoperative complications was lower in the observation group, but the difference was not significant. The incidence of anastomotic leakage/stenosis was significantly lower in the observation group than in the control group (P < 0.05).
CONCLUSION: Although there was no difference in the overall incidence of complications between the two surgical methods, use of the linear cutting stapler significantly reduced the incidence of anastomotic stricture/fistula. Therefore, the application of the linear cutting stapler in transverse colon stoma apothesis deserves further research.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to compare the incidence of postoperative complications, including superficial incisional surgical site infection (SSI) following purse-string skin closure (PS) and conventional skin closure with a drainage tube (CD) following stoma closure. A total of 55 consecutive patients who underwent loop colostomy and loop ileostomy closures in our hospital between October, 2011 and September, 2014 were retrospectively assessed. The patients were divided into two groups, namely the PS group (26 patients) and the CD group (29 patients). There were no significant differences in the characteristics of the patients between the two groups. The baseline and operative characteristics also did not differ significantly between the two groups. However the incidence of superficial incisional SSI was lower in the PS group compared to that in the CD group (0 vs. 13.8%, respectively; P=0.049). The overall incidence of complications did not differ significantly between the two groups (P=0.313). The duration of postoperative hospital stay in the PS group was shorter compared to that in the CD group. In conclusion, the results of this study suggest that PS may an effective technique to reduce the incidence of superficial incisional SSI. This technique appears to be superior to the conventional technique, allowing for better cosmesis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Stoma reversals (SRs) are commonly performed with potentially significant postoperative complications including surgical site infections (SSIs). Our aim was to determine the incidence and risk factors for SSIs in a large cohort of SR patients. DESIGN We reviewed our institutional 2006-2011 American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program (ACS-NSQIP) database for 30-day SSIs in patients undergoing SR. Records were additionally reviewed for 10 non-ACS-NSQIP variables. The primary outcome was SSI after SR. Secondary outcomes were additional 30-day postoperative complications and length-of-stay. Predictors of SSIs were identified using multivariable logistic regression. RESULTS From 528 SR patients, 36 patients developed a SSI (6.8 %). Most patients underwent SR for loop ileostomies (76.5 %) after index operations for ulcerative colitis (38.6 %) and colorectal cancer (27.8 %). SSI patients had fewer subcutaneous drains compared to patients with no SSI and had significantly higher rates of smoking, ASA 3-4 classification and laparotomies at SR (p < 0.05). Patients with SSI had increased length-of-stay and 30-day morbidities including sepsis and returns to the operating room (p < 0.05) compared to no-SSI patients. On multivariable analysis, subcutaneous drain placement was suggestive of SSI protection (odds ratio [OR] 0.52, 95 % confidence interval [CI] 0.2-1.1), but only smoking was significantly associated with an increased risk for SSI (OR 2.4, 95 % CI 1.1-5.4). CONCLUSIONS Smoking increased the risk of SR SSIs in patients by over twofold, and SR SSIs are associated with additional significant morbidities. Smoking cessation should be an important part of any SSI risk-reduction strategy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Surgical site infection after stoma reversal is common. The optimal skin closure technique after stoma reversal has been widely debated in the literature. OBJECTIVE We hypothesized that pursestring near-complete closure of the stoma site would lead to fewer surgical site infections compared with conventional primary closure. DESIGN This study was a parallel prospective multicenter randomized controlled trial. SETTINGS This study was conducted at 2 university medical centers. PATIENTS Patients (N = 122) presenting for elective colostomy or ileostomy reversal were selected. INTERVENTIONS Pursestring versus conventional primary closure of stoma sites were compared. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Stoma site surgical site infection within 30 days of surgery, overall surgical site infection, delayed healing (open wound for >30 days), time to wound epithelialization, and patient satisfaction were the primary outcomes measured. RESULTS The pursestring group had a significantly lower stoma site infection rate (2% vs 15%, p = 0.01). There was no difference in delayed healing or patient satisfaction between groups. Time to epithelialization was measured in only 51 patients but was significantly longer in the pursestring group (34.6 ± 20 days vs 24.1 ± 17 days, p = 0.02). LIMITATIONS This study was limited by the variability in procedures and surgeons, the limited follow-up after 30 days, and the inability to perform blinding. CONCLUSION Pursestring closure after stoma reversal has a lower risk of stoma site surgical site infection than conventional primary closure, although wounds may take longer to heal with the use of this approach.

Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to evaluate renal morbidity after a temporary loop ileostomy and to identify possible preoperative risk factors. METHOD Consecutive patients at four hospitals serving 1,520,000 inhabitants who received a temporary loop ileostomy and underwent subsequent closure were identified and retrospectively studied from 1 January 2007 until 28 February 2010. Serum creatinine levels were obtained 1 week before index surgery and 1 week before closure of the loop ileostomy. Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was calculated using the CKD-EPI formula. RESULTS Three hundred eight patients with median age of 64 were identified. The indication for the loop ileostomy was colorectal cancer (226), inflammatory bowel disease (41), diverticulosis (8), and other conditions (33). Median time until closure was 161 days (3-873). There was a decrease in eGFR at time of closure (89 vs. 83; p < 0.0001), and the number of patients with renal impairment (eGFR <60) increased (7.5 vs. 21 %, p < 0.0001). Preoperative risk factors for eGFR <60 at closure were age and hypertension. CONCLUSIONS This study found that a loop ileostomy is associated with a reduced renal function for most patients, especially for older and hypertensive patients. This should be considered before constructing a loop ileostomy, and perhaps another stoma should be chosen if possible in patients at risk. Evaluation of medications before discharge and early and frequent postoperative follow-up could also reduce the risk of a reduced renal function.

Abstract
The construction of an intestinal stoma is fraught with complications and should not be considered a trivial undertaking. Serious complications requiring immediate reoperations can occur, as can minor problems that will subject the patient to daily and nightly distress. Intestinal stomas undoubtedly will dramatically change lifestyles; patients will experience physiologic and psychologic detriment with stoma-related problems, however minor they may seem. Common complications include poor stoma siting, high output, skin irritation, ischemia, retraction, parastomal hernia (PH), and prolapse. Surgeons should be cognizant of these complications before, during, and after stoma creation, and adequate measures should be taken to avoid them. In this review, the authors highlight these often seen problems and discuss management and prevention strategies.

Abstract
PURPOSE Compared to the stapling technique, the fold-over technique (FO) has the benefit of avoiding the sacrifice of the bowel segment. The aim of this study was to compare short-term outcomes between the FO and a conventional resection. METHODS Between June 2008 and March 2012, a total of 242 patients who underwent a diverting ileostomy reversal after rectal cancer surgery were selected. Among them, 29 patients underwent the FO. Using propensity scores to adjust for body mass index, previous abdominal surgery history, rectal cancer surgery type (open vs. minimally invasive), and reason for ileostomy (protective aim vs. leakage management), we created a well-balanced cohort by matching each patient who underwent the FO, as the study group, with two patients who underwent a stapled or a hand-sewn technique with bowel resection (RE), as the control group (FO : RE = 1 : 2). Morbidity and perioperative recovery were compared between the two groups. RESULTS Twenty-four and forty-eight patients were allocated to the FO and the RE groups, respectively. The mean operation time was 91 ± 26 minutes in the FO group and 97 ± 34 minutes in the RE group (P = 0.494). The overall morbidity rates were not different between the two groups (12.5% in FO vs. 14.6% in RE, P = 1.000). The rate of postoperative ileus was similar between the two groups (8.3% in FO vs. 12.5% in RE, P = 0.710). Although time to resumption of soft diet was shorter in the FO group than in the RE group, the lengths of hospital stay were not different. CONCLUSION The FO and the conventional resection have similar short-term clinical outcomes for diverting ileostomy reversal.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Ileostomy results in a relatively poorer water reabsorption and is associated with dehydration and renal injury. These problems may be exacerbated in the setting of gynecologic cancers owing to both patient and disease-related factors. We evaluated the rate and reasons for hospital readmission within 30 days of ileostomy creation in patients with a gynecologic malignancy. METHODS We performed a retrospective review of women with gynecologic malignancies who underwent ileostomy creation between 2002 and 2013. RESULTS Fifty-three patients were eligible for analysis. The mean age was 63.3 years. Most patients had ovarian cancer (86.5%). Indications for ileostomy included small bowel obstruction (45.3%), as part of primary debulking (18.9%), or treatment of an anastomotic leak (15.1%). The 30-day readmission rate was 34%. Co-morbid diseases such as hypertension (p=0.008) and chronic kidney disease (p=0.010) were more common among women who were readmitted. The most common reasons for readmission were dehydration (38.9%) and acute renal failure (33.3%); women readmitted for these conditions had higher average serum creatinine levels at initial postoperative discharge (1.00 mg/dL versus 0.71 mg/dL, p=0.017) than women who did not require readmission. Readmitted women had a trend toward shorter overall survival (0.41 years versus 1.67 years, p=0.061). CONCLUSIONS Readmission rates for gynecologic oncology patients undergoing ileostomy were similar to, but higher than those previously reported in the colorectal literature. In our population, patients with preexisting cardiovascular or renal disease were at the highest risk of readmission and may benefit from preemptive strategies to decrease high ostomy output and dehydration.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The morbidity associated with closure of loop ileostomy (LI) may be attributed to the various surgical techniques employed for the closure. The purpose of this review was to review the hand-sutured (HS) versus the stapled anastomosis (SA) techniques, used in the reversal of LI. METHODS The MEDLINE, PubMed, CINHAL, Cochrane library and Web of Knowledge databases were searched for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and case-control trials (CCTs), evaluating HS and SA in reversal of LI. Data extraction with risk of bias assessment was followed by subgroup and pooled data meta-analysis where applicable per outcome. RESULTS Four RCTs (HS: 321, SA: 328) and 10 CCTs (HS: 2808, SA: 1044) were identified, with a total of 4508 patients. Regardless of subgroup analysis, no difference was seen between the two techniques with regard to anastomotic leaks (P = 0.24, odds ratio (OR): 1.37, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.81-2.29) or re-operation. The stapled group showed a significantly lower rate of conservatively managed small bowel obstruction (SBO)/ ileus at 30 days (P < 0.001, OR: 2.27, 95% CI: 1.59-2.96) (P < 0.001) and SBO during combined short- and long-term follow-up (P < 0.001). The SA also showed significant shorter operative time (P = 0.02; WMD 11.52 min), time to first bowel opening (P < 0.001; WMD 0.52 days) and length of hospital stay (P = 0.03; WMD 0.70 days). CONCLUSION The stapled technique offers an advantage in terms of lower post-operative subacute SBO rates, a faster operative technique and shorter hospitalization times. These perceived benefits make it potentially superior to HS for the reversal of LI.

Abstract
PURPOSE Wound infections affect not only the individual patient but lead to an increase in medical costs. After ileostomy reversal, surgical site infections are a common problem. The objective of the study was to compare the infection rates of purse-string and conventional skin closure techniques in a high volume setting. METHODS Patients undergoing ileostomy reversal at the Goethe University Hospital between January 2009 and August 2012 were retrospectively analysed regarding surgical site infections and associated risk factors. Patients received either conventional skin closure (running, interrupted or stapled suturing; group C) or subcuticular purse-string suture (group PS). RESULTS In total, 114 patients have been analysed. Conventional wound closure was performed in 81 patients and 33 patients received purse-string skin closure. The groups did not differ regarding age, gender, indication for ileostomy, previous chemotherapy, and operation time. Median hospital stay was 7 days (3-34) in group PS and 8 (3-53) in group C (p = 0.15). Wound infections only occurred in groups C (n = 10, 12 %) compared to group PS (n = 0; 0 %; p = 0.034), and the wound closure technique was the only significant factor associated with surgical site infection. Surgery performed by a resident under supervision was not a risk factor for complications compared to the procedure done by a senior surgeon (p = 0.73). CONCLUSION This study reveals an advantage of the purse-string skin closure technique in ileostomy reversals analysing a large cohort of patients. Therefore, we recommend the use of the purse-string skin closure in ileostomy reversals as one way to lower wound infection rates.

Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to examine stoma and peristomal complications and related variables among adults with ostomies. The primary study aim was to determine the incidence of peristomal and stoma complications during the first 3 months after stoma creation. DESIGN Data were collected using a prospective, repeated-measures descriptive study design. SUBJECTS AND SETTING Data were collected at 2 university-based hospitals with outpatient ostomy clinics in the Midwestern United States. The sample included 43 adults with newly created colostomy, ileostomy, or urostomy stomas. METHODS Participants were examined for the presence of complications up to 4 times during a 3-month period: within 7 days of surgery. Patients were also evaluated at 2, 6, and 12 weeks after stoma creation. Data were collected using a validated instrument with acceptable interrater reliability. RESULTS Peristomal skin complications developed in 27 participants, comprising 63% of the sample. The onset of peristomal skin complications occurred most frequently during the 21- to 40-day time period. The most common skin conditions at nearly all time intervals were irritation (peristomal moisture-associated skin damage) and infection. Of the 18 participants observed 70 days or longer, just 7 (38%) remained free of peristomal skin complications throughout the study. Six participants developed 1 or more stoma complications, all of which occurred 20 or more days after surgery. No demographic or clinical factors were found to be associated with the development of complications. CONCLUSIONS Although the participants were evaluated at regular intervals by a specialized nurse, the majority experienced peristomal skin complications. These results underscore the importance of further work in interventions to prevent and treat peristomal skin complications and to provide ongoing outpatient follow-up to individuals with stomas.

[PMID: 24810869 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijsu.2014.04.008] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/11/2014] [Revised: 03/28/2014] [Accepted: 04/25/2014] [Indexed: 01/05/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to investigate the clinical benefits of purse-string skin closure (PS) in daily practice compared with conventional linear skin closure (CL) after ileostomy takedown in Korean population. METHODS These retrospectively collected data were based on 157 consecutive patients who underwent ileostomy takedown between November 2010 and September 2011. Before March, 2011, CL was performed in 79 patients. Thereafter, PS was performed in 78 patients. The medical records including pain score recorded daily were reviewed and the postoperative outcomes, including SSI, were analyzed. RESULTS PS group had a significantly lower overall complication rate than the CL group (8.97% vs. 25.32%, p = 0.010). Among complications, PS group had a significantly lower SSI rate than the CL group (0% vs. 11.39%, p = 0.003). After adjusted for other risk factors (smoking, body mass index, anastomosis method), PS method was associated significantly and independently with a lower SSI rate than CL method (adjusted odds ratio: 26.63, 95% confidence interval: 3.02-267.70, p = 0.001). And the two groups did not differ in terms of postoperative pain (p = 0.323) or pain pattern (p = 0.548). CONCLUSION In daily practice, PS had a beneficial effect on SSI in patients who underwent ileostomy takedown in the Korean population.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The incidence of incisional hernias after stoma reversal is not well reported. The aim of this study was to systematically review the literature reporting data on incisional hernias after stoma reversal. We evaluated both the incidence of stoma site and midline incisional hernias. METHODS A systematic review identified studies published between January 1, 1980, and December 31, 2012, reporting the incidence of incisional hernia after stoma reversal at either the stoma site or at the midline incision (in cases requiring laparotomy). Pediatric studies were excluded. Assessment of risk of bias, detection method, and essential study-specific characteristics (follow-up duration, stoma type, age, body mass index, and so forth) was done. RESULTS Sixteen studies were included in the analysis; 1613 patients had 1613 stomas formed. Fifteen studies assessed stoma site hernias and five studies assessed midline incisional hernias. The median (range) incidence of stoma site incisional hernias was 8.3% (range 0%-33.9%) and for midline incisional hernias was 44.1% (range 8.7%-58.1%). When evaluating only studies with a low risk of bias, the incidence for stoma site incisional hernias is closer to one in three and for midline incisional hernias is closer to one in two. CONCLUSION Stoma site and midline incisional hernias are significant clinical complications of stoma reversals. The quality of studies available is poor and heterogeneous. Future prospective randomized controlled trials or observational studies with standardized follow-up and outcome definitions/measurements are needed.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The objective of this study is to assess whether the results of loop ileostomy closure in terms of morbidity and hospital stay are influenced by the type of anastomosis and suture used. METHOD All patients who underwent loop ileostomy closure were reviewed. A retrospective cohort study comparing morbidity and hospital stay according to the type of anastomosis (TT/LL) and the type of suture (hand sewn/mechanical) was performed. RESULTS From January 2003 to November 2011 a total of 167 loop ileostomy closures were analized. The groups were: type of anastomosis (TT 95/LL 72) and type of suture (manual 105/stapled 62). In 76% of the observed population the underlying disease was cancer. Mortality occurred in one case. The stratified morbidity analysis by type of complications showed no significant differences between the groups in terms of local (7.4% TT, LL 8.3%, 6.7% hand sewn, stapled 9.7%), general (TT 9.5%, 16.7% LL, hand sewn 6.7%, 6.5% stapled) and surgical (TT 15.8%, 19.4% LL, hand sewn 17.1%, 17.7% stapled) complications, nor in the rate of reoperations (TT 6.3%, 6.9% LL, hand sewn 6.7%, 6.5% stapled) and hospital stay in days (TT 7.8, 8 LL, hand sewn 8.6, stapled 6.7) CONCLUSIONS: Closure of loop ileostomy can be performed regardless of the type of suture or anastomosis used, with the same rate of morbidity and hospital stay.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
The aim was to compare reversal and laparoscopy with standard reversal of loop ileostomy in terms of hospital stay and morbidity in a randomized study.
Methods
Patients having reversal of a loop ileostomy were randomized to either standard reversal of ileostomy or reversal and laparoscopy. Strict discharge criteria were applied: toleration of two meals without nausea and vomiting, passing a bowel motion, and attaining adequate pain control with oral analgesia. Morbidity and cost were also compared between the two groups.
Results
A total of 74 patients (reversal and laparoscopy 40, standard reversal 34) with a median age of 61 years underwent loop ileostomy reversal; there were 45 men (61 per cent). Ileostomy was most commonly carried out after laparoscopic low anterior resection (36 patients). Median length of stay, based on discharge criteria, was significantly shorter in the reversal and laparoscopy group than in the standard group: 4 (interquartile range 3–4) versus 5 (4–6) days (P = 0·003). The overall morbidity rate was also lower in patients who had ileostomy reversal and laparoscopy: 10 versus 32 per cent (P = 0·023). The median cost per patient was lower in the reversal and laparoscopy group: €3450 (interquartile range 2766–3450) versus €4527 (3843–7263) (P = 0·015). There was no statistically significant difference in American Society of Anesthesiologists fitness grade or time to reversal between the two groups.
Conclusion
Reversal of loop ileostomy with laparoscopy was associated with a shorter hospital stay, lower morbidity and reduced cost compared with the standard technique. Registration number: ISRCTN46101203 (http://www.controlled-trials.com).

Abstract
AIM Surgical site infection (SSI) is a common complication following ileostomy closure with a frequency of up to 40%. This prospective randomized controlled trial was initiated to compare two surgical techniques - direct suture (DS) and purse-string suture (PSS) - used to close the wound following ileostomy closure. The primary end-point was the SSI rate. Secondary end-points were cosmetic outcome [using two validated scales: the Patient and Observer Scar Assessment Scale (POSAS) and the Body Image Questionnaire (BIQ)] and the influence of other factors on the SSI rate. METHOD Of a total of 99 patients screened, 84 were included in this study. Forty-three patients were randomized into the PSS group and 41 were randomized into the DS group. Follow up was performed within 3 days after surgery, at discharge, and 30 days and 6 months after the operation. RESULTS In the PSS group there were no cases of SSI compared with 10 (24%) cases in the DS group (P = 0.0004). There were no statistically significant differences in cosmetic outcome between the two groups. No other statistically significant factors influencing the incidence of SSI could be identified. CONCLUSION The rate of SSI is significantly lower following PSS than following DS, and both techniques have a similar cosmetic outcome. PSS closure should be considered as standard of care for wound closure after ileostomy reversal.

Abstract
PURPOSE A diverting stoma is known to reduce the consequences of distal anastomotic failure following colorectal surgery. The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of a diverting stoma after an ultra-low anterior resection (uLAR) for rectal cancer. METHODS Between 2000 and 2007, 836 patients who underwent an uLAR were divided into two groups, depending on the fecal diversion: 246 received fecal diversion, and 590 had no diversion. Patient- and disease-related variables were compared between the two groups. RESULTS Thirty-two of the 836 patients (3.8%) had immediate anastomosis-related complications and required reoperation. Anastomosis leakage comprised 72% of the complications (23/32). The overall immediate complication rate was significantly lower in patients with a diverting stoma (0.8%, 2/246) compared to those without a diverting stoma (5.1%, 30/590; P = 0.005). The fecal diversion group had lower tumor location, lower anastomosis level, and more preoperative chemo-radiation therapy (P < 0.001). In total, 12% of patients in the diverting stoma group had complications either in making or reversing the stoma (30/246). CONCLUSION The diverting stoma decreased the rate of immediate anastomosis-related complications. However, the rate of complications associated with the diverting stoma was non-negligible, so strict criteria should be applied when deciding whether to use a diverting stoma.
