Peritoneum and Anterior Rectus Sheath Suturing and Ileostomy

October 13, 2024 updated by: Qilu Hospital of Shandong University

Does Suturing the Peritoneum and Anterior Rectus Sheath Affect the Safety of Temporary Loop Ileostomy After Laparoscopic Anterior Rectal Resection

In the era of laparoscopy, ileostomy via specimen extraction site has been proposed as a novel approach for temporary ostomy creation to prevent anastomotic leak after laparoscopic low anterior rectal resection. Whether suturing the layer of the peritoneum and anterior rectus sheath affects the safety of this novel approach has not been investigated.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: modified preventive ileostomy
Ileostomy with a support rod instead of the layer of peritoneum and anterior rectus sheath suturing
The terminal ileum about 30cm proximal to the cecum was recognized and was lifted out of the body through the auxiliary incision at the right lower abdomen and made sure that the ileum was not twisted. Appropriate sutures can be used to narrow the peritoneal incision, preferably by inserting one finger. A support rod, made of a 24# silicone drainage tube with a 1ml syringe was passed through the mesentery of the small intestine. The support rod was removed two weeks after surgery. It is appropriate that the ileum wall protruded from the epidermis by about 3cm. After suturing trocar sites, the loop ileostomy was opened along the longitudinal axis of the intestinal wall, and 4-0 absorbable suture was used to fix the stoma and subcutaneous tissue circumferentially with 16-20 stitches.
Active Comparator: conventional preventive ileostomy
Ileostomy with the layer of the peritoneum and anterior rectus sheath suturing
The terminal ileum about 30cm proximal to the cecum was recognized and was lifted out of the body through the auxiliary incision at the right lower abdomen and made sure that the ileum was not twisted. Appropriate sutures can be used to narrow the peritoneal incision, preferably by inserting one finger. The seromuscular layer of the ileum or the mesentery was intermittently sutured with peritoneum and the anterior sheath of the rectus abdominis circumferentially with 8-10 stitches (3-0 silk thread). It is appropriate that the ileum wall protruded from the epidermis by about 3cm. After suturing trocar sites, the loop ileostomy was opened along the longitudinal axis of the intestinal wall, and 4-0 absorbable suture was used to fix the stoma and subcutaneous tissue circumferentially with 16-20 stitches
