Abstract
BACKGROUND: Laparoscopic fecal diversion is performed in patients with complicated colon and rectal diseases. We aim to compare operative and short-term outcomes between laparoscopic and open fecal diversion. METHODS: After obtaining institutional review board approval, patients undergoing laparoscopic or open fecal diversion between February 2010 and September 2012 were reviewed. A straight comparison of the open and laparoscopic groups was made initially; then, patients who underwent laparoscopic fecal diversion were case-matched with open counterparts based on stoma type and primary diagnosis. RESULTS: While body mass index (BMI) was higher in the laparoscopy group (p = 0.04), American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) score (p = 0.33) and gender (p = 0.74) were comparable between the study groups in the straight comparison. In the case-matched analysis, type of prior operations (p > 0.05), age (p = 0.79), gender (p > 0.99), BMI (p = 0.1), and ASA (p = 0.25) score were comparable between the groups. Open surgery was associated with increased estimated blood loss (p = 0.01), longer hospital stay (p = 0.0002), higher postoperative ileus (p = 0.03), and higher readmission rates (p = 0.002). CONCLUSIONS: Considering the short-term benefits as regards postoperative recovery and morbidity, fecal diversions should be performed laparoscopically when feasible.
