Perineal hernia is a rare complication following laparoscopic abdominoperineal resection (APR) for rectal cancer. We present two case reports of perineal hernia following laparoscopic APR and discuss their management. We suggest that they developed because the pelvic peritoneum was left open during laparoscopic APR and propose that closure of the pelvic peritoneum should be routine in this operation.

Background. Due to the technical difficulty, it is not common to close the pelvic peritoneum in laparoscopic abdominoperineal resection (LAPR) in China, which increases the risk of related complications. Permanent sigmoid colostomy is performed through the transperitoneal route conventionally in LAPR. This leads to the high occurrence of parastomal hernias and bowel obstructions. To prevent the complications and reduce surgical costs of LAPR, we performed some modifications for it. Methods. 38 patients diagnosed with low rectal cancer during July 2014 to July 2016 received LAPR with our modifications. First, the mobilization of the rectum and lymphadenectomy were identical to the classical routine method. Second, two sutures were performed on the pelvic peritoneum with the first to reduce the tension, followed by the second continuous suture to close the pelvic floor. Third, a tunnel was made between the parietal peritoneum and abdominal wall for the end sigmoid to pass through to finish the colostomy. Results. LAPR was performed on totally 38 patients successfully with no case transferring to open surgery. The follow-up period was from 1 month to 1 year. The mean operative time was 142.2 ± 16.5 min ranging from 100 min to 175 min. The mean hospital stay was 12.0 ± 1.5 days. No case underwent the reconstruction of stoma. There was not a single complication of LAPR with these two techniques that occurred to all 38 patients. Conclusion. We consider LAPR with our two techniques feasible and safe, which can be accepted quickly to improve the life quality of patients. Therefore, we suggest our procedures as the first choice during LAPR surgery. This trial is registered with trial registration number 2014028.

Pooperacinės tarpvietės išvaržos gali būti operuojamos per priekinę pilvo sieną, tarpvietę, mišrią prieigą ar laparoskopiškai. Defektas, esantis tarpvietėje, gali būti pridengtas gretimais audiniais ar tinkliuku.Pristatomas pooperacinės išvaržos, atsiradusios po laparoskopinės abdominoperinealinės tiesiosios žarnos rezekcijos, klinikinis atvejis. 2007 metais 84 metų moteriai diagnozuota vidutinės diferenciacijos tiesiosios žarnos adenokarcinoma. Ligonei buvo atliktas priešoperacinis spindulinis gydymas. 2007 metų balandį atlikta laparoskopinė abdominoperinealinė rezekcija. Po metų ligonė pastebėjo darinį tarpvietėje, jis vis didėjo, tapo skausmingas, ir 2010 metų lapkritį moteriai buvo atlikta išvaržos plastika. Pasirinktas abdominoperinealinis prieigos būdas. Tarpvietės defektas panaikintas pridengiant jį autogeniniais audiniais. Pooperacinis laikotarpis buvo sklandus ir ligonė išrašyta į namus. Pooperaciniu laikotarpiu išvarža neatsinaujino. Reikšminiai žodžiai: tarpvietės išvarža, abdominoperinealinė rezekcija, laparoskopija, hernioplastika. Perineal hernia after laparoscopic abdominoperineal resection: a case report and literature review Bronius Buckus1, Narimantas Evaldas Samalavičius2, Renatas Tikuišis2, Povilas Miliauskas2 1 Vilnius University, General Surgery Center of Clinic of Gastroenterology, Nephrourology and Surgery, Vilnius University Emergency Hospital, Šiltnamių str. 29, LT-04130 Vilnius, Lithuania2 Vilnius University, Institute of Oncology, Surgery Clinic, Vilnius University, Faculty of Medicine, Clinic of Internal Diseases, Family Medicine and Oncology,Santariškių Str. 2, LT-08661 Vilnius, Lithuania E-mail: [email protected] The aim of the paper is to present a rare case of perineal hernia and to review the current literature.Postoperative perineal hernia is a rare complication defined by the protrusion of intraperitoneal contents through a defect in the pelvic floor. Surgical repair may be performed through perineal, abdominal, combined or laparoscopic approaches. Reinforcement of the damaged pelvic floor may be accomplished with autologous tissues or a prosthetic mesh.An 84-year-old woman was referred to the surgical unit with a diagnosis of rectal adenocarcinoma in 2007. After receiving tumour irradiation in April 2007, a patient had a laparoscopic abdominoperineal resection. A year after the initial operation, the patient complained of painful perineal swelling most obvious whilst walking. The abdominoperineal approach was used to correct the hernia on November 2010. During the procedure, the defect in the pelvic floor was covered with autologous tissues. The postoperative course was uneventful. The patient has had no recurrence of her perineal hernia within 6 months following the repair. Keywords: perineal hernia, abdominoperineal resection, laparoscopy, hernioplasty.
