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.
