Peritoneum and Anterior Rectus Sheath Suturing and Ileostomy

Does Suturing the Peritoneum and Anterior Rectus Sheath Affect the Safety of Temporary Loop Ileostomy After Laparoscopic Anterior Rectal Resection


Sponsor

Qilu Hospital of Shandong University

Enrollment

120 participants

Start Date

May 14, 2024

Study Type

INTERVENTIONAL

Conditions

Summary

In the era of laparoscopy, ileostomy via specimen extraction site has been proposed as a novel approach for temporary ostomy creation to prevent anastomotic leak after laparoscopic low anterior rectal resection. Whether suturing the layer of the peritoneum and anterior rectus sheath affects the safety of this novel approach has not been investigated.

Plain Language Summary

Simplified for easier understanding

This study examines a specific surgical technique used during rectal cancer surgery where a temporary ileostomy (a pouch on the abdomen to divert bowel movements while the colon heals) is created. Researchers are looking at how suturing the peritoneum (the lining inside the abdomen) and the abdominal muscle layer affects outcomes for patients. **You may be eligible if...** - You are having laparoscopic (keyhole) rectal surgery and a preventive ileostomy is being created as part of your procedure **You may NOT be eligible if...** - Your ileostomy is being created as an emergency response to a complication such as a leak at the bowel connection site Talk to your doctor to see if this trial is right for you.

Interventions

PROCEDUREIleostomy with a support rod instead of the layer of peritoneum and anterior rectus sheath suturing

The terminal ileum about 30cm proximal to the cecum was recognized and was lifted out of the body through the auxiliary incision at the right lower abdomen and made sure that the ileum was not twisted. Appropriate sutures can be used to narrow the peritoneal incision, preferably by inserting one finger. A support rod, made of a 24# silicone drainage tube with a 1ml syringe was passed through the mesentery of the small intestine. The support rod was removed two weeks after surgery. It is appropriate that the ileum wall protruded from the epidermis by about 3cm. After suturing trocar sites, the loop ileostomy was opened along the longitudinal axis of the intestinal wall, and 4-0 absorbable suture was used to fix the stoma and subcutaneous tissue circumferentially with 16-20 stitches.

The terminal ileum about 30cm proximal to the cecum was recognized and was lifted out of the body through the auxiliary incision at the right lower abdomen and made sure that the ileum was not twisted. Appropriate sutures can be used to narrow the peritoneal incision, preferably by inserting one finger. The seromuscular layer of the ileum or the mesentery was intermittently sutured with peritoneum and the anterior sheath of the rectus abdominis circumferentially with 8-10 stitches (3-0 silk thread). It is appropriate that the ileum wall protruded from the epidermis by about 3cm. After suturing trocar sites, the loop ileostomy was opened along the longitudinal axis of the intestinal wall, and 4-0 absorbable suture was used to fix the stoma and subcutaneous tissue circumferentially with 16-20 stitches
