Abstract.Prolapse is a common complication in patients with a transverse loop colostomy. In most cases, the prolapse can be managed conservatively awaiting time for closure eventually. However, loop stoma may also be intentionally permanent or the patient may be too fragile to have the colostomy closed and in these cases a laparotomy is required for correction of the prolpase. A simple method allowing local correction of the prolapsed loop stoma is described.

Abstract.We investigated both pathogenesis and prevention of loop transverse stomal prolapse. Seven patients with reducible prolapsed stoma were studied under fluoroscopy after staining the prolapsed stoma and the colon by barium medium while prolapsing or reducing the stoma with or without the stomal wall pressed on to the abdominal wall of fascial plane. All prolapses occurred in the distal limbs of the loop stoma with the distal transverse colons redundant. The prolapse started around the mucocutaneous suture with the stoma inflated and the colon in it depressed and proceeded in accordance with an addition of abdominal pressure, but did not occur by pressing of the stomal wall. Prolapse of transverse loop stoma occurs when redundant colon invades the stoma with an abdominal pressure. Stomal prolapse might be prevented by fixation of the colon to the fascia.

PurposeThe original double-stapling technique (DST) using a standard linear stapler horizontally can be difficult in patients with a narrow pelvis or an ultralow anastomosis. We review our experience of performing a modified DST (IO-DST) with vertical division of the rectum achieved using an endostapler.MethodsWe retrospectively studied the clinical outcomes of 90 patients who underwent low anterior resection (LAR) for lower rectal carcinoma. Low anterior resection was performed with IO-DST in 34 patients (IO-DST group), with the single-stapling technique (SST) in 47 (SST group), and with per anal anastomosis (PAA) in 9 (PAA group).ResultsThe distances from the anal verge to the tumor and to the anastomosis were significantly shorter in the IO-DST group than in the SST group (5.8 cm, 4.0 cm vs 7.0 cm, 5.0 cm, respectively), whereas it was equivalent in the IO-DST and PAA groups (5.0 cm, 4.0 cm). Blood loss was less in the IO-DST group than in the SST and PAA groups (400 ml vs 578 ml and 950 ml, respectively). The operative time was shorter in the IO-DST group than in the PAA group (281 min vs 327 min, respectively). There were no significant differences in the length of the distal surgical margin among the three groups. The IO-DST group patients suffered less bowel frequency than the SST group patients 1 month after surgery (2.5 times/day vs 4.0 times/day, respectively) and less than the PAA group patients more than 1 year after surgery (2.0 times/day vs 3.5 times/day, respectively). There were no significant differences in the incidence of complications or local recurrence among the three groups.ConclusionsIO-DST is a feasible and safe procedure for performing low anastomosis, which results in less bowel frequency after LAR for lower rectal carcinoma.


Abdominal Imaging | 2005

Enterocele associated with rectocele revealed by dynamic pelvic CT

Enterocele is often associated with other pelvic floor disorders but it is not always possible to detect by clinical examination. Defecography with peritoneography and/or barium meal intake has recently been developed as a new method to identify enterocele, but this method is an invasive procedure. Multislice computed tomography was performed at rest and during simulated defecation to evaluate an 80-year-old female patient who had a defecation disorder and was diagnosed as having rectocele based on results from defecography and clinical findings. Multiplanar reconstruction images were generated for image evaluation. Using this novel method of dynamic pelvic computed tomography, a third-degree enterocele was clearly demonstrated in this case.

“On Table” Positioning for Optimal Access for Cancer Excision in the Lower Rectum

K. Maeda; M. Maruta; Harunobu Sato; Koji Masumori; H. Aoyama

Poor visualization and restricted access often make tumor lesions in the lower rectum difficult to excise, particularly in a narrow male pelvis. The aim of this study was therefore to study whether (and if so to what extent) different positions of the patient on the operating table might improve accessibility. Twenty consecutive patients (men and women) undergoing laparotomy with surgery of the lower rectum were studied. The geometric configuration of the pelvis was studied and compared on lateral radiographs obtained at the operating table in each of four positions. Compared with the conventional lithotomy position, the thighs-flat” position caused significant extension movement of the lumbosacral joint. Augmentation of the lumbar lordosis widened the pelvic view and enabled a more vertical view of the lower rectum (27.5 degrees in lithotomy position, 13.0 degrees in the thighs-flat position). Insertion of a “lumbar pad“ contributed further to the augmentation (7 degrees). When compared on radiographic studies, the thighs-flat position is preferable to the conventional lithotomy position in terms of facilitating low rectal surgery by improving both visibility and accessibility to the pelvic cavity.
