Review
BACKGROUND
The creation of an ileostomy or colostomy is a common surgical event, both in elective and in emergency context. The main aim of stoma creation is to prevent postoperative complications, such as the anastomotic leak. However, stoma-related complications can also occur and their morbidity is not negligible, with a rate from 20 to 70%. Most stomal complications are managed conservatively, but, when this approach is not resolutive, surgical treatment becomes necessary. The aim of this mapping review is to get a comprehensive overview on the incidence, the risk factors, and the management of the main early and late ostomy complications: stoma necrosis, mucocutaneous separation, stoma retraction, stoma prolapse, parastomal hernia, stoma stenosis, and stoma bleeding.
MATERIAL AND METHODS
A complete literature research in principal databases (PUBMED, EMBASE, SCOPUS and COCHRANE) was performed by Multidisciplinary Italian Study group for STOmas (MISSTO) for each topic, with no language restriction and limited to the years 2011-2021. An international expert panel, from MISSTO and World Society of Emergency Surgery (WSES), subsequently reviewed the different issues, endorsed the project, and approved the final manuscript.
CONCLUSION
Stoma-related complications are common and require a step-up management, from conservative stoma care to surgical stoma revision. A study of literature evidence in clinical practice for stoma creation and an improved management of stoma-related complications could significantly increase the quality of life of patients with ostomy. Solid evidence from the literature about the correct management is lacking, and an international consensus is needed to draw up new guidelines on this subject.

Meta-Analysis Comparative Study Review
BACKGROUND
Gangrenous sigmoid volvulus has a significant impact on morbidity and mortality. This study was conducted to compare sigmoid resection and primary anastomosis (RPA) with sigmoid resection and end colostomy (Hartmann's procedure) for gangrenous sigmoid volvulus.
METHODS
A systematic review and meta-analysis study design was employed to summarize retrospective cohort, prospective cohort, and randomised control trial studies published from inception to march 31, 2023. Searching was performed on Medline, CINAHAL, Web of Science, Google Scholar, the Cochrane Library, and ClinicalTrials.gov to locate eligible articles. Data searching, selection and screening, quality assessment of the included articles, and data extraction were done by two separate reviewers. RevMan 5.4 software with a fixed-effect Mantel-Haenszel model and Stata version 14 were used to analyze the data. The protocol registered on PROSPERO registration website (CRD42023413367).
RESULTS
Ten cohort studies and one randomised control trial with 724 patients were found; all of them were rated as being of moderate quality. The overall mortality after RPA was 15% (95%CI: 11-19%), and after Hartmann's procedure it was 19% (95%CI: 15-23%). Resection and primary anastomosis (RPA) for gangrenous sigmoid volvulus had slightly lower mortality rate than stoma (OR=0.98(95%CI: 0.68-1.42), p=0.07, I=43%), which had no statistically significant difference. Resection and primary anastomosis (RPA) had a slightly higher morbidity rate than Hartmann's procedure (OR=1.01(95%CI: 0.66-1.55), p=0.30, I=18%), which had no statistically significant difference.
CONCLUSION
Sigmoid resection and primary anastomosis (RPA) and Hartmann's procedure had no significant differences in mortality and morbidity for the treatment of gangrenous sigmoid volvulus. Choice of the intervention for gangrenous sigmoid volvulus should be individualized with consideration of different detrimental factors.

AIMS
This study compared those living with and without an intestinal stoma in relation to physical and psychological health, stress and coping, quality of life and resilience. Also, identifying factors that could be used to promote better self-care in stoma patients in the future.
DESIGN
A cross-sectional and comparative study design was employed.
METHODS
Participants were recruited via email and social media (Facebook and Twitter) between August 2018 and March 2019, to complete an online survey. The data were analysed using analysis of variance to examine group difference and a series of hierarchical linear regression analyses determining predictors of psychological well-being.
RESULTS
Of 278 participants aged 18-68 years who completed the survey, 129 (46%) had a stoma and reported significantly poorer physical health. Approximately one-fifth experienced problems with stoma management. Psychological well-being was mediated by the duration of living with a stoma (under 3 years) and frequency of leaks (weekly and monthly).

Randomized Controlled Trial
BACKGROUND
Early detection of cognitive impairment in patients undergoing ileostomy for colorectal cancer may help improve patient outcomes and quality of life. Identifying risk factors and clinically accessible factors is crucial for prevention and treatment.
OBJECTIVE
This retrospective study aimed to identify risk factors for post-operative cognitive impairment in patients undergoing ileostomy for colorectal cancer and to explore potential factors for its prevention and treatment.
METHODS
A total of 108 cases were selected and included in the study. Patient data including general characteristics, disease stage, complications, and chemotherapy status were collected, and sleep quality and cognitive function were assessed using questionnaires and follow-up. Patients were randomly divided into training and validation groups. A random forest model was used to rank clinical features based on their contribution to predicting the prognosis of cancer-related cognitive impairment (CRCI). Nomograms were constructed using the support vector machine-recursive feature elimination (SVM-RFE) method, and the minimal root-mean-square error (RMSE) values were compared to select the best model. Regression analysis was performed to determine independent predictors.
RESULTS
Significant differences were observed in age, body mass index (BMI), alcohol consumption, frequency of physical activity, comorbidity, and cancer-related anemia (CRA) between the CRCI and non-CRCI groups. Random forest analysis revealed that age, BMI, exercise intensity, PSQI scores, and history of hypertension were the most significant predictors of outcome. Univariate logistic regression analysis of 18 variables revealed that age, alcohol consumption, exercise intensity, BMI, and comorbidity were significantly associated with the outcome of CRCI ( < 0.05). Univariate and multivariate models with P-values less than 0.1 and 0.2, respectively, showed better predictive performance for CRCI. The results of univariate analysis were plotted on a nomogram to evaluate the risk of developing CRCI after colorectal cancer surgery. The nomogram was found to have good predictive performance. Finally, regression analysis revealed that age, exercise intensity, BMI, comorbidity, and CRA were independent predictors of CRCI.
CONCLUSIONS
This retrospective cohort study revealed that age, exercise intensity, BMI, comorbidity, CRA, and mobility are independent predictors of cognitive impairment in patients undergoing ileostomy for colorectal cancer. Identifying these factors and potential factors may have clinical implications in predicting and managing post-operative cognitive impairment in this patient population.

Abdominal adhesion occurs commonly in clinical practice, causing unfavorable symptoms and readmission. The ileostomy operation is a common surgical procedure and we utilized this model to evaluate abdominal adhesion. Adhesion grade score was calculated in 35 patients (Cohort 1) and subjected to correlation and receiver operating characteristic analysis. Then 98 consecutive patients (Cohort 2) who underwent ileostomy and ileostomy closure were included into a retrospective study. Logistic regression analysis was performed, and the risk of small bowel obstruction was also assessed. The time of ileostomy closure correlated with adhesion grade score in Cohort 1, justifying its use as an indicator of abdominal adhesion. All patients in Cohort 2 were then divided into the high- and low-adhesion group. A multi-variable logistic regression analysis indicated that type of surgery and peritoneum suture during ileostomy were significant factors affecting the risk of abdominal adhesion. Abdominal adhesion had the trend to prolong the length of stay postoperatively without increasing the risk of bowel obstruction. Nine patients suffered bowel obstruction, and age older than 65 significantly increased the risk. We proposed the ileostomy procedure to be a model of abdominal adhesion, and the operative time of ileostomy closure could be used as an alternative of adhesion score. Type of surgery and peritoneum suture may be risk factors of abdominal adhesion. Older age increased the risk of small bowel obstruction after ileostomy surgery.

BACKGROUND
Very early-onset inflammatory bowel disease (VEOIBD) with interleukin-10 (IL10R) signaling deficiency usually requires enterostomy in patients who are refractory to traditional treatment. This study aimed to evaluate long-term outcomes after enterostomy for VEOIBD patients with IL10R signaling deficiency.
METHODS
The medical records of all patients undergoing enterostomy for signaling deficiency were retrospectively assessed during 2012.1-2022.7 in a tertiary teaching hospital, Children's Hospital of Fudan University, Shanghai, China. Data on disease history, diagnosis and details of enterostomy and stoma closure and follow-up were collected. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to evaluate the risk factors associated with the long-term outcome of delayed stoma closure.
RESULTS
A total of 46 patients underwent an enterostomy, 19 who required emergency enterostomy and 27 with selective enterostomy. After ten years of follow-up, 35 patients underwent hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), and 25 patients were alive after HSCT. The median timeframe between HSCT and stoma closure was 19.6 [15.9,26.2] months. Nineteen patients underwent stoma closure and had an average age of 3.9 ± 1.5 years; 6 patients were waiting for stoma closure. Based on a univariate logistic model, risk factors significantly associated with late stoma closure were age at enterostomy and age at HSCT. However, multivariate logistic regression showed no statistically significant factor associated with late stoma closure. There was no significant difference between the stoma closure group and delay closure group in the z scores of weight for age at follow up.
CONCLUSIONS
This study determined the long-term outcomes after enterostomy for VEOIBD with interleukin-10 signaling deficiency. The appropriate time point of enterostomy and HSCT may improve quality of life in the long term.

BACKGROUND
Although ileal faecal diversion is commonly used in clinical settings, complications accompany it. Elucidating the intestinal changes caused by ileal faecal diversion will help resolve postoperative complications and elucidate the pathogenic mechanisms of associated intestinal disorders, such as Crohn's disease (CD). Therefore, our study aimed to provide new insights into the effects of ileal faecal diversion on the intestine and the potential mechanisms.
METHODS
Single-cell RNA sequencing was performed on proximal functional and paired distal defunctioned intestinal mucosae from three patients with ileal faecal diversion. We also performed in vitro cellular and animal experiments, tissue staining and analysed public datasets to validate our findings.
RESULTS
We found that the epithelium in the defunctioned intestine tended to be immature, with defective mechanical and mucous barriers. However, the innate immune barrier in the defunctioned intestine was enhanced. Focusing on the changes in goblet cells, we demonstrated that mechanical stimulation promotes the differentiation and maturation of goblet cells through the TRPA1-ERK pathway, indicating that the absence of mechanical stimulation may be the main cause of defects in the goblet cells of the defunctioned intestine. Furthermore, we found obvious fibrosis with a pro-fibrotic microenvironment in the defunctioned intestine and identified that monocytes may be important targets for faecal diversion to alleviate CD.
CONCLUSIONS
This study revealed the different transcription landscapes of various cell subsets and the potential underlying mechanisms within the defunctioned intestine, when compared to the functional intestine, based on the background of ileal faecal diversion. These findings provide novel insights for understanding the physiological and pathological roles of the faecal stream in the intestine.

Review
BACKGROUND
Accurate preoperative fistula diagnostics in male anorectal malformations (ARM) after colostomy are of great significance. We reviewed our institutional experiences and explored methods for improving the preoperative diagnostic accuracy of fistulas in males with ARMs after colostomy.
METHODS
A retrospective analysis was performed on males with ARMs after colostomy admitted to our hospital from January 2015 to June 2022. All patients underwent magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and high-pressure colostogram (HPC) before anorectal reconstruction. Patients with no fistula as diagnosed by both modalities underwent a voiding cystourethrogram (VCUG). General information, imaging results and surgical results were recorded.
RESULTS
Sixty-nine males with ARMs after colostomy were included. Age at the time of examination was 52 ~ 213 days, and the median age was 89 days. The Krickenbeck classification according to surgical results included rectovesical fistula (n = 19), rectoprostatic fistula (n = 24), rectobulbar fistula (n = 19) and no fistula (n = 7). There was no significant difference in the diagnostic accuracy between MRI and HPC for different types of ARMs. For determining the location of the fistula, compared to surgery, HPC (76.8%, 53/69) performed significantly better than MRI (60.9%, 42/69) (p = 0.043). Sixteen patients diagnosed as having no fistula by MRI or HPC underwent a VCUG, and in 14 patients, the results were comfirmed. However, there were 2 cases of rectoprostatic fistula that were not correctly diagnosed.
CONCLUSION
High-pressure colostogram has greater accuracy than MRI in the diagnosis of fistula type in males with ARMs after colostomy. For patients diagnosed with no fistula by both methods, VCUG reduces the risk of false-negative exclusion, and rectoprostatic fistula should be considered during the operation.
