Our aim was to determine factors that may predispose to malfunction of a continent ileostomy. Among 299 patients who underwent continent ileostomy and were followed up for at least one year, the need for revision of the ileostomy was compared by sex, age, type of initial operation, and type of revision. Revision was required less often in females, younger patients, and patients undergoing proctocolectomy and continent ileostomy. However, the rate of subsequent revision was similar after the two types of repair (repair of old valve vs construction of new valve). Constructing a continent ileostomy in stages is not necessary; patients undergoing proctocolectomy and continent ileostomy required fewer revisions than did those who had a Brooke ileostomy prior to their continent ileostomy. Moreover, a malfunctioning valve should be revised rather than a new one created; revision was technically simpler and gave comparable results.

Background: Preoperative neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (nCRT) is considered to be the standard treatment strategy for locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC); however, the risk of adverse events and postoperative recurrence remains significant. This study aimed to evaluate the non-inferiority of neoadjuvant chemotherapy (nCT) compared with nCRT in patients with LARC and to assess the possibility of eliminating radiotherapy on the basis of guaranteed efficacy.
Materials And Methods: We searched the PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library databases to identify randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing the efficacy of nCRT and nCT for LARC.

Aim: An end colostomy is a potentially life-saving surgical intervention, but postoperative ostomy management is challenging in resource-limited settings. Socioeconomic, health system, and surgical capacity barriers may delay colostomy reversal. A surgery camp model for addressing the burden of unreversed colostomies has not previously been undertaken in Malawi.

Introduction: Little is known about the association between age and fecal ostomy surgery trends over time. We aim to 1) determine the rate of fecal ostomy operations over time and 2) compare rates of colostomy formation between patients older and younger than 65 y.
Materials And Methods: Retrospective multi-institutional cohort study of patients ≥18 y who underwent colorectal resection between 2003 and 2014 using the Nationwide Inpatient Sample database.

Background: There is an increased maturation of laparoscopic intracorporeal anastomosis techniques. However, research on its application for small bowel stoma reversal in patients with Crohn's disease (CD) is limited. Therefore, in this study, we compared the perioperative outcomes between laparoscopic intracorporeal ileostomy reversal (LIIR) and open ileostomy reversal (OIR).

To explore the safety of application of ambulatory surgery management mode in total laparoscopic ileostomy reversal surgery. A retrospective analysis of clinical data was conducted on patients who had undergone total laparoscopic ileostomy reversal surgery at the First Affiliated Hospital of China Medical University from May 1, 2023, to March 31, 2024. A total of 34 patients were included in the study, comprising 22 males and 12 females, with the age of (60.
