Abstract
BACKGROUND: Right hemicolectomy is a very common surgery. Many studies compare different options for laparoscopic ileocolic anastomoses: intra- or extracorporeal; handsewn or stapled; side-to-side or end-to-side. However, there are no studies about the influence that peristalsis could have on this anastomosis. The aim of this study is to compare safety and feasibility of isoperistaltic and antiperistaltic anastomosis in terms of postoperative morbidity and mortality between both groups. The secondary endpoint is to compare long-term functional outcomes (chronic diarrhoea) and quality of life (GIQLI questionnaire) after a 1-year follow-up period. METHODS: A double-blind, randomised, prospective trial in patients undergoing scheduled surgery for right colon cancer withlaparoscopic right hemicolectomy and isoperistaltic (ISO) or antiperistaltic (ANTI) ileocolic anastomoses. RESULTS:Hundred and eight patients were included in the study. Patients were randomised either to isoperistaltic or antiperistaltic configuration (54 ISO/ANTI). No significant differences in baseline variables were found. No differences in surgical time (130 [120-150] min ISO vs. 140 [127-160] ANTI, p = 0.481), nor in anastomotic time (19 [17-22] vs. 20 [16-25], p = 0.207) and nor in postoperative complications: 37.0% ISO versus 40.7% ANTI, (p = 0.693) were found. There were no differences in postoperative ileus (p = 0.112) nor in anastomotic leakage (3.7% vs. 5.56%, p = 1.00). Differences in "time to first flatus" and "time to first deposition" were found in favour of the antiperistaltic group (p = 0.004 and p = 0.017). Anastomotic configuration did not influence hospital stay (3 days [2-6] isoperistaltic vs. 3 [2-4] antiperistaltic, p = 0.236). During follow-up, there were no differences between the two groups at 1, 6 and 12 months (p = 0.154, p = 0.498 and p = 0.683), nor in chronic diarrhoea rates in GIQLI scores (24% ISO vs. 31.4% ANTI, p = 0.541). CONCLUSIONS: The isoperistaltic and antiperistaltic ileocolic anastomosis present similar results in terms of performance, safety and functionality. However, further studies must be carried out in order to assess relationship between postoperative ileus and anastomosis configuration. TRIAL REGISTRATION: Randomised Clinical trial (Identifier: NCT02309931).
