Background: The aim of the study is to investigate the healing effect of the bone-marrow derived mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs) on ischemic colon anastomosis in systemic application and to recovery the adverse effect of ischemia.

Materials And Methods: Fourty male Wistar Albino rats weigthing 250-300 g were divided into four equal groups (n=10 Group 1: control; ischemic left colonic anastomoses (4th day); Group 2: control; ischemic left colonic anastomoses (7th day); Group 3: ischemic left colonic anastomoses + systemic transplanted BM-MSCs (4th day); Group 4: ischemic left colonic anastomoses + systemic transplanted BM-MSCs (7th day). BMSCs labelled with bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU) were transplanted into the vena cava. Group 1 and group 3 were killed four days after surgery. In group 2 and group 4 were sacrificed seven days after the surgical procedure. Histopathological features, hydroxyproline levels in the tissue, and anastomotic strength were investigated.

Results: There was no mortality all of the groups.The mean bursting pressures of ischemic colonic anastomoses in group 3 were higher than in control group 1 (4th day). We found significantly higher hydroxyproline values in group 3 and were significantly higher in group 4 than in control groups. We investigated the early period of wound healing (4th day and 7th day). When comparing between group 1 and group 3, we found higher levels for all of the histological parameters except inflammation in group 3. On day 7, when comparing between group 2 and group 4, we found higher levels for parameters of necrosis, collagen deposition.

Conclusions: BM-MSCs therapy significantly accelerated all of the healing parameters for ischemic colonic anastomosis except for inflammation on fourth day. On the seventh day, BM-MSCs augmented the levels of the hydroxyproline. Histological parameters, necrosis and collagen deposition were also found to be important for healing of ischemic colonic anastomoses. However, they did not accelerate the others histological parameters especially angiogenesis.

Background: Deloyers technique addresses challenges in restoring bowel continuity following extended left hemicolectomies. Despite being first described in 1958, the technique remains underutilized, with limited data on long-term outcomes.

Objective: To evaluate the indications, surgical and functional outcomes of Deloyers technique and review existing literature.

Background: Optimal selection of anastomosis technique is crucial in colectomy surgeries to ensure success and minimize postoperative complications. Various methods, both manual and stapler-assisted, are employed for intestinal anastomosis. This study aims to compare two surgical methods of intestinal anastomosis through macroscopic and microscopic examination.

Anastomotic leak occurrence is a severe complication after colorectal surgery. Considering the difficulty of treating these leaks and their impact on patient care, there is a strong need for an efficient prevention strategy. We evaluated a combination of extracellular vesicles (EVs) from rat adipose-derived stromal cells with a thermoresponsive gel, Pluronic® F127 (PF-127) to prevent anastomotic leaks.

Background: There is limited data within the urologic literature regarding bowel complications and leak rates following surgery requiring ileocolic anastomoses such as right colon pouch (RCP) and continent cutaneous ileocecocystoplasty (CCIC). We aimed to establish ileocolic anastomotic leak rates in urologic reconstructive surgery and determine bowel-related complications following RCP and CCIC surgeries.

Methods: We reviewed adult patients who underwent RCP or CCIC (2010-2022), investigating patient characteristics, perioperative variables, and outcomes.

Familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) is a rare inherited disorder characterized by numerous adenomatous polyps throughout the colon and rectum, leading to a significantly increased risk of colorectal cancer. We present the case of a 19-year-old male patient with a known family history of FAP who presented with recurrent lower abdominal pain, altered bowel habits, and rectal bleeding. Initial examination identified rectal polyps, and subsequent colonoscopy revealed multiple adenomatous polyps.
