Background And Objectives: This study compares surgical and oncological outcomes in patients with Crohn's disease (CD)-related colorectal cancer (CRC) to those with sporadic CRC.
Methods: Patients treated between 1983 and 2013 were matched by stage, age, gender, American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA), cancer site, and adjuvant chemotherapy.
Results: For stages I and II, 107 patients were matched (58.
Background: The laparoscopic approach considerably reduced the morbidity of colorectal surgery when compared to the open approach. Among its benefits, we can highlight less intraoperative bleeding, early oral intake, lower rates of surgical site infection, incisional hernia, and postoperative pain, and earlier hospital discharge.
Aims: To compare the perioperative morbidity of right versus left colectomy for cancer and the quality of laparoscopic oncologic resection.
Background: Despite major advances in the clinical treatment of inflammatory bowel disease, some patients still present with acute colitis and require emergency surgery.
Aims: To evaluate the risk factors for early postoperative complications in patients undergoing surgery for acute colitis in the era of biologic therapy.
Methods: Patients with inflammatory bowel disease admitted for acute colitis who underwent total colectomy at a single tertiary hospital from 2012 to 2022 were evaluated.
Gastric and Duodenal Fistulas in Crohn's Disease, a Surgical Challenge: Report of 5 Cases and a Review of the Literature.

BACKGROUND Fistulas involving the stomach and duodenum in Crohn's disease are rare (occurring in less than 1% of patients). Here, we reviewed registers from 855 patients with Crohn's disease treated in our service from January 2007 to December 2020 and found 4 cases of duodenal fistula and 1 case of gastric fistula. CASE REPORT The fistula origin was in the ileocolic segment in all cases, and all of the patients underwent preoperative optimization with improvement of nutritional status and infection control.

Incisional negative pressure wound therapy was introduced to improve wound healing of closed surgical incisions and to prevent surgical site infections.
Objective: This randomized controlled trial aimed to investigate the effect of incisional NPWT on superficial surgical site infections in high-risk, open, reoperative colorectal surgery.
BACKGROUND Fournier's gangrene (FG) is a rapidly progressive necrotizing infection of the perineum. Risk factors include male sex and immunosuppression. Inflammatory bowel disease and pregnancy may alter immune response by complex mechanisms but have rarely been associated with necrotizing infections of the perineum.

Methods: A retrospective study was conducted with consecutive patients who underwent abdominal surgery for CD from January 2012 to January 2018.
Background: Neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (nCRT) has become the standard of care for locally advanced rectal cancer, decreasing locoregional recurrence, yet with an unclear survival advantage. We aimed to assess the benefit of nCRT on oncologic and perioperative outcomes of patients with clinical stage IIA rectal adenocarcinoma treated with abdominoperineal resection (APR).
Methods: Patients with clinical T3N0 rectal adenocarcinoma that underwent APR between 1995 and 2014 were included.
Background: This study aimed to evaluate the oncological outcomes of conversion in patients undergoing resection for colon cancer.
Methods: Patients with stages I-III colon adenocarcinoma operated on between 2000 and 2012 were included. Oncologic outcomes were assessed by surgical approach (laparoscopy vs.
