Stoma reversal after intended restorative rectal cancer resection in Denmark: nationwide population-based study

Abstract: Background: Data on stoma reversal following restorative rectal resection (RRR) with a diverting stoma are conflicting. This study investigated a Danish population-based cohort of patients undergoing RRR to evaluate factors predictive of stoma reversal during 3 years of follow-up. Methods: Patients from national registries with rectal cancer undergoing RRR or Hartmann's procedure with curative intent between May 2001 and April 2012 were included. Patients with a diverting stoma were followed from the time of p… Show more

“…The prevalence of PS (16.7%) reported in the present study is in line with the 3-24% prevalence described in the literature ( 8 21 , 26 31 ). Unlike most published series, this present study included both primary and secondary PS because their natural histories and risk factors were not the same.…”

“…Consequently, a defunctioning stoma is usually created temporarily in both low colorectal (<6cm from the anal margin) and colo-anal anastomosis in order to decrease both morbidity and mortality from anastomotic failure at the time of surgery ( 6 , 7 ). Despite the intention of SPS, a significant percentage of patients (up to 25%) will live with a permanent stoma (PS) over the long term ( 8 13 ). A stoma is commonly considered to be permanent if: (i) it was not closed when it was intended to be temporarily (primary PS); (ii) it was created in a second procedure after the index surgery for any reason, even after the closure of the defunctioning stoma (secondary PS).…”

“…However, the inclusion of patients who underwent abdominoperineal excision makes comparisons difficult. Most research highlights the importance of age 5 , co-morbidity 27 , and advanced tumour stage 2 as risk factors known before operation, which is in line with the present findings. Prediction models for the risk of permanent stoma, irrespective of faecal diversion, are lacking.…”

“…More than half of the patients (53%; [95% confidence interval (CI): 49-57]) had concomitant diseases, the most common of which was hypertension 45% (95% CI: 43-47). Diabetes occurred in 15% (95% CI: 13-17) and ischemic heart disease in 14% (95% CI: [12][13][14][15][16]). The rate of patients with cancer spread (distant metastases) at the time of the rectal cancer diagnosis was 13% [95% CI : 8-18].…”

“…It is higher than in our study (43%). European multi-center studies present data that most diverting stoma is reversed within 12 months, but that one in four defunctioning stomas is not reversed 3 years after surgery [11][12][13]. Anastomotic leakage is one of the most important risk factors for not reversing stomas.…”
