To evaluate outcomes of adopting the Swenson-like technique in transanal pull-through for Hirschsprung disease (HD) at a children's institution in Southeast Asia.
A retrospective chart review was performed over 42 months at a safety-net pediatric hospital in Vietnam.
From January 2019 to June 2022, the Swenson-like technique was implemented and performed on 139 patients (115 male, 24 female, mean age 6.4 ± 11.96 months). There were 123 transanal-only resections, 5 transanal plus laparoscopic, and 11 transanal plus laparotomy. The mean operative time was 70.9 ± 43.6 min. The average length of the resected specimen was 18.8 ± 10.9 cm. No urethral or vaginal injuries occurred. Postoperative complications included 1 anastomotic leak (0.7%), 4 anastomotic stenoses (2.8%), and 2 perianal abscesses in the setting of recurrent enterocolitis (1.4%). With a mean follow-up of 26 ± 11.9 months (range 3-48 months), there were 25 enterocolitis cases (17.9%), 45 patients with constipation (32.3%), 1 episode of fecal incontinence lasting longer than 6 months (0.7%), and 1 rectal-vestibular fistula noted one year postoperatively (0.7%). There were no deaths.
The Swenson-like technique in transanal pull-through for Hirschsprung's disease was safely adopted at our institution. The results show that applying this technique uniformly in a single institution led to excellent outcomes.
评估在东南亚一家儿童医院采用 Swenson 类似技术行经肛门拖出术(transanal pull-through)治疗先天性巨结肠(Hirschsprung disease,HD)的结果。
在越南一家儿童医院,对 42 个月期间的病历进行回顾性分析。
2019 年 1 月至 2022 年 6 月,采用 Swenson 类似技术对 139 例患者(男 115 例,女 24 例,平均年龄 6.4±11.96 个月)进行了治疗。其中,123 例行单纯经肛门切除术,5 例行经肛门联合腹腔镜切除术,11 例行经肛门联合剖腹探查术。平均手术时间为 70.9±43.6 分钟。切除标本的平均长度为 18.8±10.9cm。无尿道或阴道损伤。术后并发症包括吻合口漏 1 例(0.7%),吻合口狭窄 4 例(2.8%),以及在复发性小肠结肠炎的情况下发生 2 例肛周脓肿(1.4%)。平均随访 26±11.9 个月(范围 3-48 个月),17.9%(25 例)出现小肠结肠炎,32.3%(45 例)出现便秘,1 例大便失禁持续时间超过 6 个月(0.7%),1 例术后 1 年出现直肠前庭瘘(0.7%)。无死亡病例。
在我院,Swenson 类似技术行经肛门拖出术治疗先天性巨结肠是安全的。结果表明,在单一机构中统一应用该技术可获得良好的结果。
