Introduction: Cholelithiasis is the most common hospital diagnosis of the digestive system, and its treatment, if symptomatic, is laparoscopic cholecystectomy. There is a growing need for comprehensive determination of postoperative outcomes and the efficiency of healthcare facilities. The "textbook outcome"(TO) indicates the quality of care commonly used in oncological procedures, obtained by adding several postoperative parameters, which informs whether a perfect result has been obtained. The main objective of this study is to determine the TO for cholecystectomy and to see the factors that influence its achievement.

Methods: Retrospective observational unicentric cohort study on patients who underwent cholecystectomy between 2018-2020. We defined TO as those patients who met the following premises: Clavien-Dindo complications < III, postsurgical stay less than the 75th percentile (<3 days), and no readmissions or mortality in the first ninety days. Perioperative characteristics were analyzed, and the patients were divided into two groups according to whether or not they achieved TO. We defined criteria for difficult cholecystectomy according to the operative report.

Results: The percentage of TO was 72% (342/475) (82.6% in elective surgery and 60.5% in urgent surgery). The univariate analysis showed that the following factors are associated with achieving TO: female sex, age <63 years, ASA risk < III, elective surgery, laparoscopic approach, and not difficult cholecystectomy. After multivariate analysis ASA < III (OR 2.39 CI95% 1.37-4.16), elective surgery (OR 2.77 CI95% 1.64-4.67), laparoscopic approach (OR 5.71 CI95% 2.89-11.30) and not to be difficult cholecystectomy (OR 0.42 CI95% 0.259-0.71) remained statistically significant.

Conclusions: The TO is a healthcare quality tool that is simple to perform, easily interpretable, and helpful for evaluating quality in healthcare and comparing centers. It applies not only to oncological procedures but also to cholecystectomy.

Aim: To evaluate the clinical outcome of early closure of a protective ileostomy and preoperative stimulation of the efferent limb in a cohort of patients with rectal cancer treated surgically, primarily using the laparoscopic approach.

Methods: We performed an observational retrospective cohort study in a prospectively recorded series of patients with rectal cancer who underwent laparoscopic surgery with a protective loop ileostomy between 2017 and 2022. Ileostomy closure was programmed for within 3 months after surgery. All patients underwent stimulation of the efferent limb. Primary outcomes were morbidity and mortality, length of stay (LOS), and re-admission.

Results: Between 2017 and 2022, 108 patients underwent resection for rectal cancer and protective ileostomy. The laparoscopic approach was performed in 84.3% of patients (n = 91). Permanent ileostomy was performed in 5 patients (4.6%). Ileostomy closure was thus performed in 95.4% of patients (n = 103). Median time to closure was 74.5 days (range 57-113). In 63.1% (n = 65) of patients, reconstructive surgery was performed within 90 days. Prior to closure, efferent limb stimulation was performed in 77.8% (n = 84) of patients. Global morbidity was 26.2% (n = 27) (85.19%, n = 23 Clavien-Dindo I and 7.41%, n = 2 Clavien-Dindo II). The main causes of morbidity were postoperative ileus (10.7%, n = 11) and rectal bleeding (8.7%, n = 9). Anastomosis leakage occurred in 2 patients. Median hospital stay was 6 days (5-7). Readmission was needed in 6.8% (n = 7) of patients.

Conclusion: A previous laparoscopic approach, early closure and stimulation of the efferent limb could be a useful strategy to reduce the morbidity and mortality of temporary ileostomy closure.

Final del formulario Anastomotic dehiscence, a feared complication in colorectal surgery, motivates the search for effective strategies to mitigate its risk. This meta-analysis encompasses all published randomized trials investigating and comparing the impact of indocyanine green (ICG) angiography on this complication. With four studies and 1,109 patients, the intraoperative ICG angiography group demonstrated a significant reduction in the overall rate of anastomotic dehiscence compared to the non-angiography group (7.3% vs. 11.5%; OR: 0.6; 95% CI: 0.4-0.9; p = 0.03). These differences were maintained in rectal surgery subgroup, with no prolongation of surgical time or increase in morbidity and mortality. There were no differences in the left colon surgery group. The evidence provided by this meta-analysis would support the effectiveness of ICG angiography in reducing the incidence of anastomotic leakage in colorectal surgery, advocating for its integration into routine surgical practice.
