Aim: To evaluate the efficacy of mechanical bowel preparation (MBP) combined with oral antibacterials for the prevention of postoperative complications when preparing a patient for anterior rectal resection.Materials and methods: We analyzed shortterm results in 77 patients who had undergone anterior rectal resection for rectal and rectosigmoid junction cancer. Forty five (45) patients were prepared for surgery only with MBP. In 32 patients, in addition to MBP, oral antibacterial agents ciprofloxacin and metronidazole were used preoperatively.Results: The overall rate of postoperative complications was 6.25% (2/32 patients) in the group of combined preparation for surgery and 15.5% (7/45) in the group using only MBP. Surgical wound infection occurred in 1 patient in the combined preparation group and in 4 patients in the MBP only group. There was no anastomotic leak in the combined preparation group, whereas in the MBP only group, anastomotic leak occurred in 2 patients.Conclusion: Combined use of oral antibacterials and MBP before anterior rectal resection makes it possible to achieve an extremely low rate of the colorectal anastomosis leak. Further studies into the efficacy of this preparation regimen are needed, along with their discussion in the professional communities.

Die Analfistel, die zunächst meist als akuter Abszess symptomatisch wird, ist die chronische Form derselben Krankheit. Die Fistel äußert sich durch persistierende Sekretion neben dem After und kann die Lebensqualität der Patienten durch langwierige Verläufe massiv einschränken. Die chirurgische Therapie zielt darauf ab, die Erkrankung bleibend ohne Rezidiv zu heilen, ohne dabei die Kontinenz zu schädigen. Dies sind zwei sich teilweise entgegenlaufende Forderungen, weswegen je nach Fistel verschiedene Operationen zum Einsatz kommen. Distale, einfache Fisteln werden gespalten, jedoch darf, um die Kontinenz nicht zu gefährden, nicht zu viel Schließmuskel geopfert werden. Höher gelegene, komplexe Fisteln werden meist mit Entfernung der gesamten Fistel und nachfolgender Schließmuskelnaht (Advancement Flap oder primäre Sphinkterrekonstruktion) behandelt. Neuere Techniken wie z. B. der Fistula Plug, haben eine deutlich höhere Rezidivrate, schonen anderseits die Kontinenz noch mehr und sind deshalb eine Alternative für speziell geeignete Patienten.

SummaryDespite the clinical benefit associated with the combined use of aspirin and clopidogrel in patients with acute coronary syndrome or those undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention, a considerable interindividual variability in response to these drugs have been consistently reported. There is a growing interest on applying platelet functional tests with the goal of identifying patients at increased risk of recurrent ischaemic events and potentially tailoring antiplatelet treatment regimens.This manuscript will review the state of the art on the most commonly available platelet functional tests, describing their advantages and disadvantages and exploring their applicability in clinical practice.
