Abstract
BACKGROUND Lower gastrointestinal tract stenosis is commonly diagnosed and is typically treated with surgery or endoscopic balloon dilation (EBD). Radial incision and cutting (RIC) is a novel treatment approach that has several benefits compared with EBD and surgery. Although RIC has demonstrated a high technical success rate and has been shown to improve subjective symptoms, previous studies revealed that restenosis after RIC remain unsolved. Herein, we report the design of a prospective, multicenter, single-arm, interventional, phase II trial to evaluate the safety of local triamcinolone acetonide (TA) administration and its feasibility in preventing restenosis after RIC for lower gastrointestinal tract stenosis. METHODS The major inclusion criteria are age 20-80 years and the presence of benign stenosis in the lower gastrointestinal tract accessible by colonoscope. We will perform RIC followed by local administration of TA to 20 participants. The primary outcome is the safety of local TA administration, which will be assessed by determining the frequency of adverse events of special interest. The secondary outcomes are the technical success rate of RIC, duration of procedure, improvement in subjective symptoms, and duration of hospitalization. The outcomes, improvement in subjective symptoms, and long-term results will be evaluated using descriptive statistics, Student's t-test, and Kaplan-Meier curve, respectively. DISCUSSION This explorative study will provide useful information regarding the safety of TA administration after RIC, which may contribute to further investigations.

Stenosis of the colorectal anastomosis after surgery for diverticulitis: A national retrospective cohort study. Colorectal Dis 2024; 26:1437-1446. [PMID: 38886887 DOI: 10.1111/codi.17076] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/09/2023] [Revised: 05/11/2024] [Accepted: 05/25/2024] [Indexed: 06/20/2024]
Abstract
AIM The aim of this work was to investigate the association between early postoperative anastomotic leakage or pelvic abscess (AL/PA) and symptomatic anastomotic stenosis (SAS) in patients after surgery for left colonic diverticulitis. METHOD This is a retrospective study based on a national cohort of diverticulitis surgery patients carried out by the Association Française de Chirurgie. The assessment was performed using path analyses. The database included 7053 patients operated on for colonic diverticulitis, with surgery performed electively or in an emergency, by open access or laparoscopically. Patients were excluded from the study analysis where there was (i) right-sided diverticulitis (the initial database included all consecutive patients operated on for colonic diverticulitis), (ii) no anastomosis was performed during the first procedure or (iii) missing information about stenosis, postoperative abscess or anastomotic leakage. RESULTS Of the 4441 patients who were included in the final analysis, AL/PA occurred in 327 (4.6%) and SAS occurred in 82 (1.8%). AL/PA was a significant independent factor associated with a risk for occurrence of SAS (OR = 3.41, 95% CI = 1.75-6.66), as was the case for diverting stoma for ≥100 days (OR = 2.77, 95% CI = 1.32-5.82), while central vessel ligation proximal to the inferior mesenteric artery was associated with a reduced risk (OR = 0.41; 95% CI = 0.19-0.88). Diverting stoma created for <100 days or ≥100 days was also a factor associated with a risk for AL/PA (OR = 3.08, 95% CI = 2-4.75 and OR = 12.95, 95% CI = 9.11-18.50). Interestingly, no significant association between radiological drainage or surgical management of AL/PA and SAS could be highlighted. CONCLUSION AL/PA was an independent factor associated with the risk for SAS. The treatment of AL/PA was not associated with the occurrence of anastomotic stenosis. Diverting stoma was associated with an increased risk of both AL/PA and SAS, especially if it was left for ≥100 days. Physicians must be aware of this information in order to decide on the best course of action when creating a stoma during elective or emergency surgery.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Symptomatic anastomotic stricture is a rare but major complication after left-sided colorectal surgery. Hydraulic balloon dilatation is the first-line treatment in cases where the complication occurs, but 20% of patients present with refractory strictures after multiple sessions. Endoscopic stricturoplasty with the use of a linear stapler is a novel therapeutic alternative for those difficult cases. MATERIALS AND METHODS We identified all patients in our department who underwent endoscopic stricturoplasty with a linear stapler between 2004 and 2022. The technical, periinterventional, and follow-up data of the patients were retrospectively analyzed. RESULTS We identified nine patients who fulfilled our inclusion criteria. The procedure was technically possible in eight cases, whereas in one case, the anatomy of the anastomosis did not allow for a correct placement of the stapler. All patients with a technically successful procedure were relieved from their symptoms and could have their ostomy reversed. There was no periprocedural morbidity and mortality. Two patients presented with a recurrent stricture eight and 26 months after the initial stricturoplasty, and the procedure was successfully repeated in both cases. CONCLUSIONS Endoscopic stricturoplasty is a feasible, safe, and minimally invasive alternative for the treatment of refractory anastomotic strictures in the distal colon and rectum for patients with a suitable anatomy.

Abstract
Benign anastomotic stricture is a frequent complication after rectal surgery. This study investigated the feasibility of endoscopic dilation combined with bleomycin injection for benign anastomotic stricture after rectal surgery. 31 patients who diagnosed with benign anastomotic stricture after rectal surgery were included in this study. 15 patients received simple endoscopic dilation (dilation group) and 16 patients received endoscopic dilation combined with bleomycin injection (bleomycin group). The clinical effect and adverse events were compared in the 2 groups. The strictures were managed successfully and the obstruction symptoms were relieved immediately. There were 2 minor complications in dilation group and 3 minor complications in bleomycin group. The difference was not significant between the 2 groups (P > .05). During the follow-up, the mean reintervention interval was 4.97 ± 1.00 months in dilation group and 7.60 ± 1.36 months in bleomycin group. The median treatment times was 4 (range 3-5) in dilation group and 2 (range 2-3) in bleomycin group. The differences in the 2 groups were significant (P < .05). Compared with endoscopic dilation, endoscopic dilation combined with bleomycin injection may reduce the treatment times and prolong the reintervention interval, which is a safe and effective endoscopic management for benign anastomotic stricture after rectal surgery.

Abstract
Background Small benign intestinal stenosis is usually treated by endoscopic balloon dilation (EBD) or surgery. Although EBD and surgery are able to resolve the stenosis in most cases, they are associated with several problems such as insufficient dilation and surgical stress, respectively. On the contrary, a novel approach called radial incision and cutting (RIC) is reported to have several benefits when compared to EBD and surgery. We can currently adopt RIC only for the strictures in the colon or terminal ileum and not for those stenotic lesions present further in the small intestine where balloon-assisted endoscopy is utilized, because the long-type electric knife is currently not approved for use in Japan. We will herein conduct a pilot study to investigate the safety and feasibility of RIC for treating the benign stenoses of the small intestine using the long-type electric knife. Methods This will be a single-center, single-arm, interventional trial. The major criteria for inclusion will be age ranging from 20 to 80 years and the presence of benign stenosis in the small intestine. We will perform RIC on 10 participants. The primary outcome is the safety of this procedure, which will be assessed by measuring the frequency of adverse events of special interest. The secondary outcomes will be technical success rate, improvement in subjective symptoms, procedure time, and duration of hospitalization. Discussion This pilot study will provide useful information that will aid in adopting RIC for treating the benign strictures present in the small intestine.

Abstract
AIM The goal of this European Society of Coloproctology (ESCP) guideline project is to give an overview of the existing evidence on the management of diverticular disease, primarily as a guidance to surgeons. METHODS The guideline was developed during several working phases including three voting rounds and one consensus meeting. The two project leads (JKS and EA) appointed by the ESCP guideline committee together with one member of the guideline committee (WB) agreed on the methodology, decided on six themes for working groups (WGs) and drafted a list of research questions. Senior WG members, mostly colorectal surgeons within the ESCP, were invited based on publication records and geographical aspects. Other specialties were included in the WGs where relevant. In addition, one trainee or PhD fellow was invited in each WG. All six WGs revised the research questions if necessary, did a literature search, created evidence tables where feasible, and drafted supporting text to each research question and statement. The text and statement proposals from each WG were arranged as one document by the first and last authors before online voting by all authors in two rounds. For the second voting ESCP national representatives were also invited. More than 90% agreement was considered a consensus. The final phrasing of the statements with < 90% agreement was discussed in a consensus meeting at the ESCP annual meeting in Vienna in September 2019. Thereafter, the first and the last author drafted the final text of the guideline and circulated it for final approval and for a third and final online voting of rephrased statements. RESULTS This guideline contains 38 evidence based consensus statements on the management of diverticular disease. CONCLUSION This international, multidisciplinary guideline provides an up to date summary of the current knowledge of the management of diverticular disease as a guidance for clinicians and patients.
