Cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and heated intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) is associated with significant postoperative ileus (POI). This study examined intraoperative gastrointestinal wall thickness (GWT) and its association with patient outcomes.
A prospective study of patients undergoing CRS and HIPEC. Proximal and distal small intestine GWT, before and after HIPEC were recorded.
Thirty-four patients (mean age=56.1 years, 61.8% female) were recruited. After HIPEC, the mean proximal (4.5 vs. 3.0 mm, p=0.03) and distal (4.3 vs. 3.4 mm, p<0.01) GWT were increased. Increased GWT was associated with prolonged operative time (10 vs. 8.5 h, p=0.03) and total length of stay (35.71 vs. 21.25 days, p=0.02). Postoperative ileus occurred in 23.5% of patients but differences between GWT groups did not reach significance (28.6% vs. 20%, p=0.56).
GWT increased significantly during CRS and HIPEC and is reflective of tissue trauma and oedema. This was associated with prolonged operative time, total length of stay and post-operative ileus.
细胞减灭术(CRS)和腹腔热灌注化疗(HIPEC)与显著的术后肠梗阻(POI)有关。本研究检查了术中胃肠道壁厚度(GWT)及其与患者结局的关系。
对接受 CRS 和 HIPEC 的患者进行前瞻性研究。记录 HIPEC 前后近端和远端小肠 GWT。
共招募了 34 名患者(平均年龄 56.1 岁,61.8%为女性)。HIPEC 后,近端(4.5 毫米比 3.0 毫米,p=0.03)和远端(4.3 毫米比 3.4 毫米,p<0.01)GWT 均增加。GWT 增加与手术时间延长(10 小时比 8.5 小时,p=0.03)和总住院时间延长(35.71 天比 21.25 天,p=0.02)相关。23.5%的患者发生术后肠梗阻,但 GWT 组之间的差异无统计学意义(28.6%比 20%,p=0.56)。
在 CRS 和 HIPEC 过程中,GWT 显著增加,反映了组织创伤和水肿。这与手术时间延长、总住院时间和术后肠梗阻有关。
