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.

S3-Leitlinie „Diagnostik und Therapie des Karpaltunnelsyndroms“

CME: 2 Punkte

Prof. Dr. med. Gregor Antoniadis Das Karpaltunnelsyndrom ist die häufigste Kompressionsneuropathie peripherer Nerven. Obwohl die Anamnese mit dem nächtlichen Einschlafen der Hand (Brachialgia parästhetica nocturna) sehr typisch ist, ist eine klinisch-neurologische Untersuchung und Elektroneurografie in manchen Fällen auch eine Neurosonografie erforderlich. Im Anfangsstadium sind konservative Maßnahmen (Handgelenksschiene, Ergotherapie) empfehlenswert. Bei nicht Ansprechen der konservativen Therapie oder Auftreten von neurologischen Ausfällen ist eine Dekompression des N. medianus am Karpaltunnel indiziert.

Dr. med. Benjamin Meyknecht, PD Dr. med. Oliver Pieske Das Webinar S2e-Leitlinie „Distale Radiusfraktur“ beschäftigt sich mit Fragen und Antworten zu Diagnostik und Klassifikation sowie Möglichkeiten des Ausschlusses von Zusatzverletzungen. Die Referenten erläutern, welche Frakturen konservativ behandelt werden können und wie. Das Webinar beantwortet die Frage nach aktuellen operativen Therapiekonzepten: Welcher Zugang, welches Osteosynthesematerial? Auf was muss bei der Nachbehandlung der distalen Radiusfraktur geachtet werden?
