Abstract
Introduction: Restorative proctocolectomy (RPC) and total colectomy with ileorectal anastomosis (TC-IRA) are traditional surgical options for individuals with familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP). Re-appraisal and modification to these techniques, such as near-total colectomy with ileo-distal sigmoid anastomosis (NT-IDSA) and RPC with robotic intracorporeal single-stapled anastomosis (RPC-RiSSA), have been implemented in recent years. This study aimed to evaluate the early postoperative outcomes associated with novel techniques employed in a single centre for restorative surgery in patients with FAP.
Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted using data from patients with FAP who underwent prophylactic restorative surgery between January 2008 and December 2022 at St Mark's Hospital.
Results: Two hundred fifty-three individuals underwent restorative surgery over the 15-year period; 102/253 (40.3%) underwent TC-IRA, 84 (33.2%) had NT-IDSA, and 67 (26.5%) underwent RPC. Laparoscopic approach was the most common (88.2%) operative access. Seventeen patients (6.7%) underwent robotic operations. For robotic-assisted procedures, no conversions were reported. No anastomotic leaks or 30-day reoperations were reported in the NT-IDSA group compared to 8% (0/84 vs 8/102, p = 0.009) and 11% (0/84 vs 11/102, p = 0.002), respectively, in the TC-IRA group. Regarding RPC, following the introduction of robotic RPC-RiSSA in 2019, no anastomotic leakage was observed compared with 9% (0/11 vs 5/56, p = 0.3) in those undergoing conventional RPC.
Conclusion: Our institution has transitioned from TC-IRA to NT-IDSA since 2014 and conventional RPC to RPC-RiSSA in 2019. To date, since refinement of the techniques there have been no anastomotic failures amongst these cohorts. The reported results may offer future horizons for patients undergoing similar procedures for alternative colorectal diseases.
期刊介绍:
Techniques in Coloproctology is an international journal fully devoted to diagnostic and operative procedures carried out in the management of colorectal diseases. Imaging, clinical physiology, laparoscopy, open abdominal surgery and proctoperineology are the main topics covered by the journal. Reviews, original articles, technical notes and short communications with many detailed illustrations render this publication indispensable for coloproctologists and related specialists. Both surgeons and gastroenterologists are represented on the distinguished Editorial Board, together with pathologists, radiologists and basic scientists from all over the world. The journal is strongly recommended to those who wish to be updated on recent developments in the field, and improve the standards of their work.
Manuscripts submitted for publication must contain a statement to the effect that all human studies have been reviewed by the appropriate ethics committee and have therefore been performed in accordance with the ethical standards laid down in an appropriate version of the 1965 Declaration of Helsinki. It should also be stated clearly in the text that all persons gave their informed consent prior to their inclusion in the study. Details that might disclose the identity of the subjects under study should be omitted. Reports of animal experiments must state that the Principles of Laboratory Animal Care (NIH publication no. 86-23 revised 1985) were followed as were applicable national laws (e.g. the current version of the German Law on the Protection of Animals). The Editor-in-Chief reserves the right to reject manuscripts that do not comply with the above-mentioned requirements.
