Abstract
Aim
Total proctocolectomy (TPC) is the standard of care for patients with ulcerative colitis (UC) and dysplasia not amenable to endoscopic management. However, the risks of an extensive resection may outweigh the benefits in high-risk surgical patients. Therefore, we performed a systematic review and meta-analysis to assess postoperative outcomes between segmental colectomy (SEG) versus TPC in patients with UC.
Study design
Global databases were searched from inception until August 2022 for comparative studies reporting the postoperative outcomes of patients with UC undergoing SEG versus TPC. The primary outcomes were subsequent neoplasia development and overall survival. Odds ratios (ORs), hazard ratios (HRs) and their corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated. The Newcastle–Ottawa Scale and the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE) were used for quality-of-evidence assessment.
Results
Eight retrospective studies comprising 4856 patients were included. Overall, 1620 (33%) patients underwent SEG. SEG patients were older, had more comorbidities and mostly underwent right colectomy (40%) and sigmoidectomy (16%). Most studies included UC patients and concomitant colorectal cancer. Reoperation and Clavien–Dindo III–IV odds were equivalent (OR 3.17; 95% CI 0.12, 81.25; I2 66%; OR 0.79; 95% CI 0.48, 1.31; I2 74%). There was no difference in neoplasia development (OR 5.05, 95% CI 0.37, 68.66; I2 61%) nor in overall survival (HR 1.20, 95% CI 0.73, 1.97; I2 61%). The risk of bias was high in all included studies and the quality of evidence was low.
Conclusion
Low-quality evidence failed to demonstrate any discernible differences in the postoperative outcomes between SEG and TPC. However, given the limited granularity of the analysed data and the high likelihood of imprecise results, we cannot assert that SEG and TPC are equivalent. Furthermore, there was a suggestion of an elevated risk of neoplasia development and inferior overall survival in the SEG group.
期刊介绍:
Diseases of the colon and rectum are common and offer a number of exciting challenges. Clinical, diagnostic and basic science research is expanding rapidly. There is increasing demand from purchasers of health care and patients for clinicians to keep abreast of the latest research and developments, and to translate these into routine practice. Technological advances in diagnosis, surgical technique, new pharmaceuticals, molecular genetics and other basic sciences have transformed many aspects of how these diseases are managed. Such progress will accelerate.
Colorectal Disease offers a real benefit to subscribers and authors. It is first and foremost a vehicle for publishing original research relating to the demanding, rapidly expanding field of colorectal diseases.
Essential for surgeons, pathologists, oncologists, gastroenterologists and health professionals caring for patients with a disease of the lower GI tract, Colorectal Disease furthers education and inter-professional development by including regular review articles and discussions of current controversies.
Note that the journal does not usually accept paediatric surgical papers.
