Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) on the healing of colonic anastomosis in the presence of sepsis.
Materials And Method: Fifty Wistar-albino male rats were used. Ten healthy rats were euthanized to prepare PRP, the rest were subjected to colonic anastomosis and randomly allocated into four groups of 10 rats each as anastomosis without PRP (C), without PRP in sepsis (SC), anastomosis with PRP (C-PRP), and with PRP in sepsis (S-PRP). Sepsis was induced by cecal ligation and puncture procedure. All animals were euthanized on postoperative day 7. The body weight change, anastomotic bursting pressure (ABP), tissue hydroxyproline (TH) and histopathological examination of each group were analyzed by using one-way analysis of variance (ANOWA) and Tukey's HSD post-hoc test to assess the differences between the groups.
Results: There was no statistical difference among the groups in terms of body weight changes. The ABP was measured at a mean value of 179.5 ± 10.3, 129.3 ± 14.2, 209 ± 14.4, and 167.5 ± 7.5 mm-Hg, in group C, SC, C-PRP, and S-PRP, respectively. The ABP and TH of C-PRP group was significantly higher than three groups (p < .05, for each comparison). In sepsis, PRP significantly raised the mean ABP and TH levels up to the levels of C group. Tissue regeneration was significant with increased collagen formation in C-PRP group than the other groups (p < .05). The healing effect of PRP in the presence of sepsis was significant than S-group (p < .05), while similar to C group (p = .181).
Conclusion: PRP application to colonic anastomosis promotes the healing process in rats with intra-abdominal sepsis.

Ileal pouch-anal anastomosis for ulcerative colitis: 30-year analysis on surgical evolution and patient outcome.
BJS Open

Department of Abdominal Surgery, University Hospitals Leuven, KU Leuven, Leuven, Belgium.
Background: Proctocolectomy with ileal pouch-anal anastomosis is the treatment of choice for patients with ulcerative colitis with medical refractory disease or dysplasia. The aim of this research was to describe the evolution of ileal pouch-anal anastomosis surgery and surgical outcomes over a three-decade interval in a high-volume referral centre.
Methods: All consecutive patients undergoing ileal pouch-anal anastomosis for ulcerative colitis between 1990 and 2022 at the University Hospitals of Leuven were retrospectively included.

Introduction: Implementation of enhanced recovery after surgery principles has led to exploration of ambulatory pathways in surgery, including gastrointestinal surgery. However, implementation of ambulatory pathways after colorectal surgery has not been established yet. Previous studies suggest that discharge within 24 h in colorectal surgery is only possible with a clear protocol and careful patient selection.

Total proctocolectomy with ileal pouch anal anastomosis is the standard of care for patients with severe ulcerative colitis. We generated a cell-type-resolved transcriptional and epigenetic atlas of ileal pouches using scRNA-seq and scATAC-seq data from paired biopsy samples of the ileal pouch and the ileal segment above the pouch (pre-pouch) from patients (male=4, female=2), and paired biopsies of the terminal ileum and ascending colon from healthy individuals (male=3, female=3) serving as reference. Our study finds an additional population of absorptive and secretory epithelial cells within the pouch but not the pre-pouch.

Giant colonic diverticulum is an uncommon presentation of colonic diverticular disease. It is characterised by the presence of a diverticulum exceeding 4 cm in size, with approximately 90% of the cases involving the sigmoid colon. Typically, diagnosis relies on CT of the abdomen and pelvis (CTAP).

Background/aim: The effectiveness of a transanal drainage tube (TAT) for the prevention of anastomotic leakage after double stapling technique (DST) anastomosis in colorectal cancer has been reported. Previously, TATs had been placed and connected to drainage bags. It was considered that a higher decompression effect could be expected by inserting an open-type TAT, without connection to a drainage bag.
