The article presents a retrospective analysis of the results of surgical treatment of postoperative intraabdominal complications in 42 patients with colon cancer complicated by bowel obstruction and perforation of the tumor. The pyoinflammatory processes such as peritonitis and abscesses of abdominal cavity took a leading place in the structure of postoperative complications according to the authors. Method of «closed» decompression and intraluminal irrigation of the large intestine without wide opening of organ lumen was developed and applied into practice as perioperative prophylaxis of pyoinflammatory processes. These measures allowed reducing the rate of postoperative intraabdominal complications from 19,2 to 7,7%.

Abstract Purpose Patients aged > 80 years represent an increasing proportion of colon cancer diagnoses. Selecting patients for elective surgery is challenging because of possibly compromised health status and functional decline. The aim of this retrospective, population-based study was to identify risk factors and health measures that predict short-term mortality after elective colon cancer surgery in the aged. Methods All patients > 80 years operated electively for stages I–III colon cancer from 2005 to 2016 in four Finnish hospitals were included. The prospectively collected data included comorbidities, functional status, postoperative surgical and medical outcomes as well as mortality data. Results A total of 386 patients (mean 84.0 years, range 80–96, 56% female) were included. Male gender (46% vs 35%, p = 0.03), higher BMI (51% vs 37%, p = 0.02), diabetes mellitus (51% vs 37%, p = 0.02), coronary artery disease (52% vs 36%, p = 0.003) and rheumatic diseases (67% vs 39%, p = 0.03) were related to higher risk of complications. The severe complications were more common in patients with increased preoperative hospitalizations (31% vs 15%, p = 0.05) and who lived in nursing homes (30% vs 17%, p = 0.05). The 30-day and 1-year mortality rates were 6.0% and 15% for all the patients compared with 30% and 45% in patients with severe postoperative complications (p < 0.001). Severe postoperative complications were the only significant patient-related variable affecting 1-year mortality (OR 9.60, 95% CI 2.33–39.55, p = 0.002). Conclusions The ability to identify preoperatively patients at high risk of decreased survival and thus prevent severe postoperative complications could improve overall outcome of aged colon cancer patients.

Objective This study aimed to compare the surgical site infection (SSI) rates between intracorporeal anastomosis (ICA) and extracorporeal anastomosis (ECA). Summary of background data Laparoscopic surgery is recommended for colonic malignancies because of its superior clinical outcomes and comparable oncologic results. Laparoscopic colectomy with ICA has the advantages of incision length and free extraction site choice. However, ICA may be associated with a risk of SSI due to enterotomy inside the abdominal cavity. Methods We retrospectively analyzed patients with colon cancer who underwent radical surgery at Korea University Ansan Hospital between January 2017 and June 2020. We compared the SSI rates and other clinical variables between the ICA and ECA groups. Results Of the 502 patients who underwent radical surgery for colorectal cancer during the study period, 234 were eligible for inclusion. ECA and ICA were performed in 62.4% and 37.6% of patients, respectively. There were no statistically significant intergroup differences in clinicopathologic variables. The overall SSI rate did not differ between the groups (P = 0.801), but organ/space SSIs were more common in the ICA group than in the ECA group (P = 0.048). Conclusions There was no significant difference in overall SSI or anastomotic leakage (AL) rates between the ICA and ECA groups, but the organ/space SSI rate was higher in the ICA group when AL cases were excluded. Further high-quality studies are needed to assess the risk of organ/space SSIs in the ICA after colon cancer surgery.

Background Hemodialysis patients who undergo surgery have a high risk of postoperative complications. The aim of this study was to determine whether colon cancer surgery can be safely performed in hemodialysis patients. Methods This multicenter retrospective study included 1372 patients who underwent elective curative resection surgery for colon cancer between April 2016 and March 2020. Results Of the total patients, 19 (1.4%) underwent hemodialysis, of whom 19 (100%) had poor performance status and 18 had comorbidities (94.7%). Minimally invasive surgery was performed in 78.9% of hemodialysis patients. The postoperative complication rate was significantly higher in hemodialysis than non-hemodialysis patients (36.8% vs. 15.5%, p = 0.009). All postoperative complications in the hemodialysis patients were infectious type. Multivariate analysis revealed a significant association of hemodialysis with complications (odds ratio, 2.9362; 95%CI, 1.1384–7.5730; p = 0.026). Conclusion Despite recent advances in perioperative management and minimally invasive surgery, it is necessary to be aware that short-term complications can still occur, especially infectious complications in hemodialysis patients.
