Summary: 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 versus conventional loop ileostomy after low anterior resection for rectal cancer.

Detailed description: Diverting ileostomy (DI) is a common procedure performed in patients undergoing low anterior resection for rectal cancer to protect the anastomosis and reduce the risk of complications. Although DI remains one of the most common methods used in clinical practice to prevent anastomotic leakage, there is still considerable debate in clinical practice about whether to perform a routine ileostomy. Despite temporary ileostomy fecal diversion can reduce the development of abdominal abscesses, wound inflammation, peritonitis, and sepsis after the occurrence of AL, however, it not only failed to reduce the incidence of AL but significantly increased the risk of non-elective readmissions and reinterventions as well as higher total costs. Meanwhile, stoma significantly increase the risk of stoma-related complication such as small bowel obstruction, postoperative ileus, dehydration from high-output stoma culminating in acute kidney injury, electrolyte imbalance, stoma stenosis/ necrosis, parastomal hernia, peristomal abscess, and fistula, etc.

Criteria for eligibility:
Criteria:
Inclusion Criteria: - Pathologically confirmed low to intermediate level rectal cancer, with the lower margin of anastomosis <10cm from the anus. - age ≥18 years and ≤80 years. - the surgical procedure is anterior rectal resection (LAR). - intraoperative virtual or conventional ileostomy was performed. Exclusion Criteria: - BMI >30 kg/m². - ASA score >3. - Patients with coexisting complete intestinal obstruction. - History of long-term use of immunosuppressive drugs or glucocorticoids. - Combined severe cardiac disease: with congestive heart failure or NYHA cardiac function ≥ grade 2. Patients with a history of myocardial infarction or coronary artery surgery within 6 months prior to the procedure. - chronic renal failure (requiring dialysis or glomerular filtration rate <30 mL/min). Intraoperative combined multi-organ resection. - Combined cirrhosis of the liver. - Intraoperative findings of incomplete anastomosis and positive insufflation test.
