Abstract Background The incidence of postoperative venous thromboembolism (VTE) is high in patients with inflammatory bowel disease. We aimed to analyze the incidence and predictive factors of postoperative VTE in patients with ulcerative colitis. Methods Patients with ulcerative colitis who underwent colon and rectum surgery during 2010–2018 were included. We retrospectively investigated the incidence of postoperative VTE. Results A total of 140 colorectal surgery cases were included. Postoperative VTE was detected in 24 (17.1 %). Portal–mesenteric venous thrombosis was the most frequent VTE (18 cases; 75 %); of these, 15 patients underwent total proctocolectomy (TPC) with ileal pouch–anal anastomosis (IPAA). In univariate analysis, VTE occurred more frequently in patients with neoplasia than in those refractory to medications (27.2 % vs. 12.5 %; p < 0.031). TPC with IPAA was more often associated with VTE development (28 %) than total colectomy (10.5 %) or proctectomy (5.9 %). On logistic regression analysis, TPC with IPAA, total colectomy, long operation time (> 4 h), and high serum D-dimer level (> 5.3 µg/mL) on the day following surgery were identified as predictive risk factors. Conclusions Postoperative VTE occurred frequently and asymptomatically, especially after TPC with IPAA. Serum D-dimer level on the day after surgery may be a useful predictor of VTE.

Chyle leak is a rare complication in colorectal surgery. It occurs due to disruption of the lymphatic drainage network in the abdomen or retroperitoneum. We describe the first reported case of chyle leak following total colectomy for inflammatory bowel disease. Our patient underwent total colectomy for severe ulcerative colitis not responsive to medical treatment. Four days postoperatively, a milky fluid was noted in the drainage bag. Analysis of the fluid confirmed chyle. The patient remained well and was successfully managed conservatively with a fat-free elemental diet and was discharged from hospital on day 12 postoperatively. A review of the literature suggests that conservative management with dietary modification is a common and effective management strategy; however, medical and surgical options exist for refractory cases.

Background and Aims: Colectomy due to ulcerative colitis is associated with complications. One severe complication is the risk for blow-out of the remaining rectal remnant. The aim of this study was to compare the frequency and severity of complications in patients with the rectal remnant left subcutaneously versus patients with the rectal remnant left intra-abdominally. A secondary aim was to identify risk factors for complications. Materials and Methods: Consecutive patients at two tertiary centers in Sweden were retrospectively reviewed regarding surgical procedures; complications classified according to Clavien–Dindo; and possible risk factors for complications such as preoperative medication, emergency surgery, and body mass index. Results: 307 patients were identified. Minor complications were more common than previously reported (85%–89%). Severe surgical complications were not related to the handling of the rectal remnant. Leaving the rectal remnant subcutaneously was associated with local wound problems. Risk factors for severe complications were emergency surgery and preoperative medication with 5-aminosalicylic acid. Conclusion: Minor complications after colectomy for ulcerative colitis are very common and need to be addressed. Leaving the rectal stump intra-abdominally seems safe and may be advantageous to reduce local wound morbidity.
