Abstract Background and Aims To compare perioperative characteristics and outcomes between primary ileocolonic resection [PICR] and iterative ileocolic resection [IICR] for Crohn’s disease [CD]. Methods From 2013 to 2015, 567 patients undergoing ileocolonic resection were prospectively included in 19 centres of the GETAID chirurgie group. Perioperative characteristics and postoperative results of both groups [431 PICR, 136 IICR] were compared. Uni- and multivariate analyses of the risk factors of overall 30-day postoperative morbidity was carried out in the IICR group. Results IICR patients were less likely to be malnourished [27.2% vs 39.9%, p = 0.007], and had more stricturing forms [69.1% vs 54.3%, p = 0.002] and less perforating disease [19.9% vs 39.2%, p < 0.001]. Laparoscopy was less commonly used in IICR [45.6% vs 84.5%, p < 0.01] and was associated with increased conversion rates [27.4% vs 14.6%, p = 0.012]. Overall postoperative morbidity was 36.8% in the IICR group and 26.7% in the PICR group [p = 0.024]. There was no significant difference between IICR and PICR regarding septic intra-abdominal complications, anastomotic leakage [8.8% vs 8.4%] or temporary stoma requirement. IICR patients were more likely to present with non-infectious complications and ileus [11.8% vs 3.7%, p < 0.001]. Uni- and multivariate analyses did not identify specific risk factors of overall postoperative morbidity in the IICR group. Conclusions Surgery for recurrent CD is associated with a slight increase of non-infectious morbidity [postoperative ileus] that mainly reflects the technical difficulties of these procedures. However, IICR remains a safe therapeutic option in patients with recurrent CD because severe morbidity including anastomotic complications is similar to patients undergoing primary resection.

Abstract Background According to recent literature, extended colectomy (EC) and segmental colectomy (SC) are equally effective for colonic Crohn’s disease (CCD), with no differences in terms of postoperative morbidity, incidence of long-term recurrence and definitive stoma, but earlier recurrence is observed in patients with SC. Our objective was to evaluate our comparative results between EC and SC. Methods All consecutive patients undergoing surgery for CCD (EC vs. SC) in our Centre were included and compared and we evaluated postoperative morbidity, long-term clinical and surgical recurrence. Results One hundred and twelve patients (mean age at diagnosis of CD, 31 ± 17 years, mean age at surgery 42 ± 17 years) with CCD underwent EC (n = 45) or SC (n = 67); 62 (55%) patients presenting concomitant small bowel disease, 10 (9%) an extra-intestinal manifestation and 16 (14%) were active smokers. Postoperative morbidity was 8/45 (18%) in case of EC vs. 9/67 (13%) in case of SC (NS). In EC group, 8/8 (100%) complicated patients vs. 16/37 (43%) uncomplicated patients were under anti-TNF before surgery (p = 0.04). This significant difference was not showed in SC group. After a median follow-up of 40 ± 34 months (range 1–130), clinical recurrence incidence was 15/45 (33%) in EC vs. 27/67 (40%) in SC patients (NS) and surgical recurrence was 8/45 (18%) in CE vs. 13/67 (19%) in CS patients (NS). Recurrence of the disease occurred after 19 ± 20 months (range, 1–74) in EC vs. 14 ± 26 months (range, 1–130) in CS patients (p = NS). Conclusion Our study confirms that in case of surgery for CCD, EC and SC are equally safe and feasible but recurrence happens earlier after SC than EC. Additionally, the role of anti-TNF is confirmed for postoperative complications.

Abstract Background The role of Vedolizumab (VDZ) as therapeutic option for the postoperative recurrence of Crohn’s disease (CD) following ileocolonic resection is currently unknown. We aimed to assess the effectiveness of VDZ in this setting. Methods All consecutive CD patients with an available baseline colonoscopy at 6-12 months from the ileocolonic resection and treated with VDZ for the postoperative recurrence after the baseline colonoscopy were extracted from the cohort of the Sicilian Network for Inflammatory Bowel Diseases (SN-IBD). The primary outcome was endoscopic success, assessed at the first colonoscopy following initiation of VDZ. In patients with Rutgeerts score i0 or i1 at baseline, endoscopic success was defined by maintenance of Rutgeerts score i0 or i1; in patients with Rutgeerts score ≥ i2 at baseline, it was defined as reduction of at least one point of Rutgeerts score. The secondary outcome was clinical failure, assessed at one year and at the end of follow-up. Results Seventy patients were included (median follow-up: 23.5 months). All 9 patients without endoscopic recurrence at baseline (Rutgeerts score i0 or i1) and available post-treatment colonoscopy maintained a Rutgeerts score i0 or i1 (treatment success: 100%). In patients with endoscopic recurrence (Rutgeerts score ≥ i2 at baseline), a reduction of at least one point in the Rutgeerts score was obtained in 20 out of 42 patients (47.6%). By combining the two subgroups, the overall endoscopic success was achieved in 29 out of 51 patients (56.9%). Furthermore, 14 out of 42 patients (33.3%) with endoscopic recurrence at baseline achieved a Rutgeerts score i0 or i1 at the subsequent colonoscopy. Clinical failure was reported in 13/70 patients (18.6%) at one year, and in 23/70 patients (32.9%) at the end of follow-up. A new resection was required in 7/70 patients (10.0%). Conclusion VDZ may be a therapeutic option for the management of postoperative recurrence of CD. Further studies are needed to confirm these results.

Abstract Background Prediction of endoscopic postoperative recurrence (POR) and prophylactic treatment based on clinical risk profile have thus far been inconclusive. This study aimed to examine the association between clinical risk profile and the development of endoscopic POR in a Crohn’s disease population without postoperative treatment and to identify individual risk factors of endoscopic POR. Methods Medical records of 142 patients with Crohn’s disease during follow-up after ileocecal or ileocolonic resection without prophylactic treatment at 3 referral centers were reviewed. Endoscopic POR was defined as a modified Rutgeerts score ≥i2b. Clinical risk profiles were distilled from current guidelines. Both uni- and multivariate logistic regression analysis were used to assess the relationship between risk profiles and endoscopic POR. Results Endoscopic POR was observed in 68 out of 142 (47.9%) patients. Active smoking postsurgery (odds ratio [OR], 3.01; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.24-7.34; P = 0.02), a Montreal classification of A3 (OR, 3.05; 95% CI, 1.07-8.69; P = 0.04), and previous bowel resections (OR, 2.58; 95% CI, 1.07-6.22; P = 0.03) were significantly associated with endoscopic POR. No significant association was observed between endoscopic POR and any guideline defined as a high-/low-risk profile. However, patients with a combination of any 3 or more European Crohns & Colitis Organisation– (OR, 4.87; 95% CI, 1.30-18.29; P = 0.02) or British Society of Gastroenterology–defined (OR 3.16; 95% CI, 1.05-9.49; P = 0.04) risk factors showed increased odds of developing endoscopic POR. Conclusions Our results suggest that patients with a combination of any 3 or more European Crohns & Colitis Organisation– or British Society of Gastroenterology–defined risk factors would probably benefit from immediate prophylactic treatment.
