Effect of Oral Laxative Use Before Colorectal Surgery on Intraoperative Surgical Difficulty (OLAX-CRC)

10. September 2026 aktualisiert von: IBRAHIM DOGAN, Van Training and Research Hospital
This prospective randomized pilot study will evaluate whether the use of an oral laxative before elective laparoscopic colorectal surgery affects small-bowel diameter and intraoperative surgical difficulty. Adult patients scheduled for elective laparoscopic colorectal resection will be randomly assigned to receive either oral laxative plus rectal enema preparation or rectal enema preparation alone. During surgery, the diameters of the jejunum and ileum will be measured using a standardized method. The study will also compare operative difficulty, bowel manipulation time, operation duration, need for additional ports, conversion to open surgery, intraoperative complications, blood loss, and early postoperative outcomes between the two groups. The findings may help clarify whether oral laxative use influences intraoperative conditions during laparoscopic colorectal surgery.

Detaillierte Beschreibung

Mechanical bowel preparation is commonly used before elective colorectal surgery. Although its effects on postoperative outcomes have been widely investigated, limited evidence is available regarding the effect of oral laxatives on intraoperative small-bowel distension and technical difficulty during laparoscopic colorectal surgery. Increased intraluminal fluid following oral laxative administration may lead to small-bowel distension, potentially impairing surgical exposure and increasing the need for bowel manipulation.

In this study, small-bowel diameter will be assessed intraoperatively using a standardized measurement method after laparoscopic access and establishment of pneumoperitoneum. Jejunal diameter will be measured approximately 50 cm distal to the ligament of Treitz, and ileal diameter approximately 20 cm proximal to the ileocecal valve. Measurements will be performed in the transverse plane without applying mesenteric tension and, when feasible, the mean of two measurements will be recorded. At the end of the operation, the operating surgeon will assess overall operative difficulty using a Likert-type scale ranging from very easy to very difficult. This pilot study is intended to provide preliminary evidence for the design of future adequately powered studies and to support the evaluation of current bowel-preparation practices.

Waffen und Interventionen

Teilnehmergruppe / Arm
Intervention / Behandlung
Experimental: Oral Laxative Plus Rectal Enema
Participants assigned to this arm will receive preoperative bowel preparation consisting of an oral laxative combined with a rectal enema before elective laparoscopic colorectal surgery.
Participants assigned to the experimental arm will receive an oral laxative as part of preoperative mechanical bowel preparation, in addition to a rectal enema, before elective laparoscopic colorectal surgery. The oral laxative will be administered according to the institution's standard preoperative bowel preparation protocol.
Participants in both study arms will receive a rectal enema as part of preoperative bowel preparation before elective laparoscopic colorectal surgery. Participants in the comparator arm will receive the rectal enema without an oral laxative.
Aktiver Komparator: Rectal Enema Alone
Participants assigned to this arm will receive preoperative bowel preparation consisting of a rectal enema alone, without an oral laxative, before elective laparoscopic colorectal surgery.
Participants in both study arms will receive a rectal enema as part of preoperative bowel preparation before elective laparoscopic colorectal surgery. Participants in the comparator arm will receive the rectal enema without an oral laxative.
