Successful single‐stage laparoscopic surgery using a preoperative self‐expanding metallic stent in patients with obstructive colorectal cancer

Abstract

Introduction

Although a self‐expanding metallic stent (SEMS) or a transnasal or transanal decompression tube is sometimes used as a bridge to surgery in patients with obstructive colorectal cancer, the optimal decompression procedure to achieve successful laparoscopic surgery remains unclear.

Methods

Forty‐two patients with obstructive colorectal cancer who were preoperatively decompressed by using SEMS (the SEMS group, n = 20) or a decompression tube (the DT group, n = 22) between January 2010 and February 2017 were included in this retrospective study.

Results

In the SEMS group, 20 patients (100%) were able to eat and 17 patients (85%) were able to undergo total colonoscopy preoperatively, but no patients could do so in the DT group (P < 0.01 and P < 0.01, respectively). The serum albumin level increased in the time between admission and just before surgery in five patients in the SEMS groups (25%), whereas it decreased in all patients in the DT group (P = 0.037). Laparoscopic surgery was performed more frequently in the SEMS groups (19 patients, 95%) than in the DT group (13 patients, 59.1%) (P = 0.018). Primary anastomosis without stoma was also achieved more frequently in the SEMS groups (19 patients, 95%) than in the DT group (15 patients, 68.2%) (P = 0.047). Anastomotic leakage did not occur in the SEMS group, but it did occur in one patient in the DT group. The recurrence‐free survival rate did not differ between the groups (median follow‐up period: 21 months).

Conclusion

In patients with obstructive colorectal cancer, SEMS appears to be more effective than a decompression tube as a preoperative treatment to achieve successful laparoscopic resection without stoma.
