Unlabelled: We evaluated the efficacy of laparoscopic palliative stoma creation for patients with malignant bowel obstruction (MBO).
Patients And Methods: Twenty-four patients with MBO who underwent laparoscopic stoma creation between January 2009 and December 2012 were studied and their clinical outcome was evaluated retrospectively.
Results: Compared to the open approach, the laparoscopic approach led to significantly shorter operation times and a significantly lower incidence of surgical site infection( SSI). The rate of removal of the intestinal tube and intravenous drip after surgery was 100% and 88%, respectively, and the rate of oral intake was 100% after palliative stoma creation. The prognosis was 58% in 3 months and 29% in 1 year, and the median survival time was approximately 4 months.
Discussion: The quality of surgery by the laparoscopic approach was better than that by the open approach, and the quality of life( QOL) after stoma creation was better than that before surgery. Given the shorter operation time, lower incidence of SSI, and better QOL, laparoscopic stoma creation is a beneficial choice for palliative treatment in patients with MBO.

Background: Even in the biological era, permanent stoma is not uncommon in patients with Crohn's Disease.
Objective: This study aimed to investigate the incidence and risk factors of permanent stoma in Crohn's disease patients and provide clinical evidence for reducing this disabling outcome.
Design: Consecutive patients with Crohn's disease who underwent ostomies in the past decade were reviewed.

Aim: Crohn's disease (CD) is regarded as a wasting disease, yet there is a growing population of CD patients with a body mass index (BMI) of 35 and above. The rate of postoperative complications is relatively high in CD patients but might be even higher in CD with morbid obesity (MO).
Methods: This was a retrospective study using a prospectively maintained database of all patients undergoing Ileocolic resection for CD between 2014 and 2021 in two referral centres, comparing postoperative complication rates according to BMI.

Background And Aims: The therapeutic management of fistulas presents significant challenges, often involving both conservative and surgical approaches. Despite these interventions, recurrence and postoperative mortality rates remain high. Endoscopic stent insertion into the fistula, along with the creation of a stent stoma, may offer a promising alternative for patients who fail surgical or conservative therapies.

Background: Trends of stoma creation at index surgery for Crohn's disease (CD) in the biologics era has not been thoroughly investigated. This study aimed to assess the impact of increasing biologics use on stoma rates at index surgery of CD, as well as identifying risk factors for the creation and nonreversal of CD-related stoma.
Methods: In this single-center retrospective analysis, consecutive CD patients who underwent index bowel surgery from 2007 to 2021 were reviewed.
