Re-optimized technology of protective ileostomy with no need of reversal / 中华胃肠外科杂志

ABSTRACT

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To explore the clinical application of aoptimizedtechniquebased onpreviouslyreported protecting stoma with no need forreversal.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Thetechniquealso used "the assembly of drainage device" to performprotecting ileostomy. The original method includes enterotomy at the terminal ileum to placedrainage device, which was optimized as follows two intestinal pursestring with 0.5 cm distance were placed 5 cm away from the ileocecal valve. Transverse enterotomy was performed in the anti-mesenteric side. The assembly was placed at the root of the appendix between two pursestring, and then the intestine purse suture was tighten. Ligation of the small intestine anastomosis between the anastomosis ring at both ends was carried out, and theanastomosis ring was deployed. From the root of the appendix in the cecum wall, the assembly was embedded about 2 cm and pulled out of abdominal cavitythough the Trocar hole.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Seventeen cases of ultra-low rectal cancer completed protecting stoma, including 11 cases through ileocecal protective stoma. All the anastomosis healed well. Defecation drainage tube was removed 3-5 weeks after anastomosis ring degradation. Drainage nozzle healed after 3 to 5 days, and no complications occurred.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The optimized ileocecal protective ileostomy has the following advantages (1)wound healing time is significantly shorter. (2)secondary intestinal fistula can be prevented. (3)no need to fix ileum and less chance of subsequent volvulus, intestinal obstruction.</p>
