Abstract

Aim: Low anterior resection (LAR) is a reliable surgical technique for the treatment of upper and mid-rectum cancers. With the development of technical equipment in recent years, more patients have the chance of LAR. We questioned the safety of colorectal anastomoses performed with stapling technique versus hand-suturing after LAR. Methods: Between the years of 1992 and 2001, 68 patients had LAR for adenocarcinoma of the upper and middle third of rectum. Twenty-five patients died during the follow-up and 37 patients were included in the study. LAR was performed by hand suturing in 23 patients (62 °/o) and by 'double-stapling technique' in 14 (38%) patients. The final outcome of two methods were compared for incontinence, leakage and stricture of anastomosis. Results: Thirty-seven patients were followed up for a median period of 49 months (4-120 months). The two groups were similar for age, gender, and distance of tumor from the anal verge, stage, and tumor differentiation. Incomplete incontinence was found in 4 of the hand-sewn patients. One patient had complete, another hadincomplete incontinence in the stapler group. The two groups were found to be statistically similar in terms of incontinence, anastomotic leakage and stricture. Conclusion: We conclude that the 'double stapling technique' in the surgical resection of rectal carcinomas seems to be safe and an effective technique to avoid the development of incontinence, leakage and stricture of anastomosis.

Özet

Amaç: Rektumun üst ue orta bölümlerinde aşağı anterior rezeksiyonun güvenilir bir tedavi yöntemi olduğu kabul edilmektedir. Son yıllardaki teknik ilerlemelerle daha çok hasta aşağı anterior rezeksiyon (AAR) şansı yakalarken, bu yöntemde anastomozun uygulanmasını kolaylaşıran 'stapler' tekniğinin güvenilirliğini araştırdık. Yöntem: Kliniğimizde, 1992- 2001 tarihleri arasında, üst ve orta bölüm rektum adenokarsinomu nedeniyle 68 hastaya AAR uygulandı. Bu hastalardan 25'i kaybedildi. Altı hasta da izlem dışı kaldığından 37 hasta çalışma kapsamına alındı. AAR sonrası anastomoz 23 (%62) hastada elle yapılırken (grup 1), 14 (%38) hastada çift stapler yöntemi (grup 2) kullanılarak uygulandı. Grup l ue grup 2'deki hastaların yaş ortalamaları sırası ile 54.3±16.4 ve 52.6±12.6 yıldı. Bu iki anastomoz yapma tekniği inkontinans, anastomoz kaçağı ve darlık yönünden karşılaştırıldı. Bulgular: Otuzyedi hasta median 49 (4-120) ay takip edildi. AAR ve anastomoz uygulanan iki hasta grubu arasında yaş, cins, tümörün anal çıkımdan uzaklığı, patolojik evre, tümörün diferansiyasyonu açısından fark bulunmadı. Elle yapılan anastomozlarda 4 inkomplet, stapler uygulananlarda biri komplet biri de inkomplet 2 inkontinans saptandı. İnkontinans, anastomoz kaçağı ve darlığı açısından iki grup arasında istatistiksel olarak fark bulunmadı. Sonuç: Rektum tümörlerinde 'çift stapler yöntemi'nin kaçak, darlık ve inkontinans açısından güvenilir olduğu sonucuna varıldı.
