Abstract/OtherAbstract:
OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study is to describe an imaging method based on a CT technique, CT antegrade colonography, for the evaluation of low anastomosis and to evaluate the value of CT antegrade colonography before early ileostomy closure after proctectomy in low rectal endometriosis.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: One hundred ninety-five patients referred for low rectal endometriosis underwent proctectomy and were eligible for early ileostomy closure. All patients underwent standard antegrade fluoroscopy (n = 77) or CT antegrade colonography (n = 118) 8 days after surgery. The negative predictive values, positive predictive values, sensitivity, specificity, and likelihood ratio of standard antegrade fluoroscopy and CT antegrade colonography in detecting anastomotic leakage and abscesses were assessed. The reference standard for positive and negative examinations was based on clinical follow-up, imaging, surgical, or interventional procedure findings.
RESULTS: Negative and positive predictive values for detecting anastomotic leakage were 100% (95% CI, 96.8-100%) and 100% (95% CI, 39.8-100%), respectively, for CT antegrade colonography and 98.6% (95% CI, 92.4-100%) and 100% (95% CI, 54.1-100%), respectively, for standard antegrade fluoroscopy. The negative and positive predictive values for detecting abscess were 100% (95% CI, 96.8-100%) and 100% (95% CI, 47.8-100%), respectively, for CT antegrade colonography and 97.3% (95% CI, 90.8-99.7%) and 100% (95% CI, 2.5-100%), respectively, for standard antegrade fluoroscopy.
CONCLUSION: CT antegrade colonography may play a major role in the evaluation of low anastomosis protected by an ileostomy after proctectomy in low rectal endometriosis, leading to the development of a new strategy with early restoration of the intestinal continuity.
