No Stoma VS Ghost Stoma in Patients Undergoing Total Mesorectal Excision for Rectal Cancer

January 17, 2024 updated by: fan li

Ghost Ileostomy Group Versus no Stoma Group in Patients Undergoing Total Mesorectal Excision for Rectal Cancer: A Randomized Controlled Study

This study aimed at comparing the Comprehensive Complication Index (CCI), readmission rates, postoperative hospitalization days, duration of bearing the stoma (months), hospitalization costs, the number of hospitalizations with ghost ileostomy group versus no ileostomy group after total mesorectal excision for rectal cancer.

Conditions

Detailed Description

So far, there are no relevant reports on ghost ileostomy among the Asian population, and all studies are small sample studies.In the past decades, with the advent of circular stapling devices, many middle and low rectal cancers have chosen new sphincter-saving procedures (such as ISR and Ta TME). Nevertheless, when the incidence rate of AL remains high, is diverting ileostomy applicable? Is ghost ileostomy applicable to rectal cancer in the context of new surgical procedures such as pelvic floor reconstruction, perineal drainage, anastomotic reinforcement and robotic surgery? Is this delayed stoma safe and feasible with the increase of preoperative neoadjuvant therapy? Therefore, our study proposes to summarize the review of the complications of GI and no stoma to explore the safety and effectiveness of GI in clinical practice.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Calculation postoperative of the Comprehensive Complication Index (CCI) for each patient
Time Frame: An average of 1 year from the date of total mesorectal excision for rectal cancer until the date of when the patient's condition is stabilized without complications
The Comprehensive Complication Index (CCI)summarises all postoperative complications based on the established Clavien-Dindo classification (ranging from mild complications not leading to a deviation from the normal clinical course (grade I) up to postoperative death (grade V)) at an individual patient level according to their grade of severity.
An average of 1 year from the date of total mesorectal excision for rectal cancer until the date of when the patient's condition is stabilized without complications

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Postoperative hospitalization days
Time Frame: Through study completion, an average of 1 year
If the ghost ileostomy group required bed rest or a second surgery for ileostomy due to complications or no stoma group required a second surgery due to complications, the number of days of hospitalization due to complications and/or reoperation since total mesorectal excision for rectal cancer was recorded.
Through study completion, an average of 1 year
Readmission rates
Time Frame: Through study completion, an average of 1 year
Patients in the ghost ileostomy and no stoma groups who did not have a second surgery due to complications recorded the number of hospitalizations after total mesorectal excision for rectal cancer. If the ghost ileostomy and no stoma groups required bedside or secondary surgery for diverting ileostomy due to complications, record the number of hospitalizations due to complications and/or reoperation since the data of total mesorectal excision for rectal cancer.
Through study completion, an average of 1 year
The number of hospitalizations
Time Frame: Through study completion, an average of 1 year
Patients in the ghost ileostomy and no stoma groups who did not have a second surgery due to complications recorded the number of hospitalizations after total mesorectal excision for rectal cancer. If the ghost ileostomy and no stoma groups required bedside or secondary surgery for diverting ileostomy due to complications, record the number of hospitalizations due to complications and/or reoperation since the data of total mesorectal excision for rectal cancer.
Through study completion, an average of 1 year
First hospitalization costs
Time Frame: During hospitalization,approximately 7 days
Patient hospitalization costs for total mesorectal excision of rectal cancer.
During hospitalization,approximately 7 days
Total hospitalization costs
Time Frame: Through study completion, an average of 1 year
Patients in the ghost ileostomy and no stoma groups who did not have a second surgery due to complications recorded the costs total mesorectal excision for rectal cancer, if the ghost ileostomy and no stoma groups required bedside or secondary surgery for diverting ileostomy due to complications and all patients in the diverting ileostomy group required reoperation for stoma reversal, record the costs due to complications and reoperation since the data of total mesorectal excision for rectal cancer.
Through study completion, an average of 1 year
