Isoperistaltic versus antiperistaltic side-to-side anastomosis after right laparoscopic hemicolectomy for cancer (ISOVANTI) trial: study protocol for a randomised clinical trial.
International Journal of Colorectal Disease 2017 September
BACKGROUND: It is believed that loosing ileocecal valve is well tolerated in patients who do not have short bowel syndrome or Crohn disease. From the hypothesis of colonic peristalsis and transit is regulated by that ileocecal valvular mechanism, we try to find out if the creation of a new pseudo-valvular mechanism as antiperistaltic anastomosis could be considered after right hemicolectomy can cause any short- or long-term changes in gastrointestinal habits.
PURPOSE: The purpose of the study at primary endpoint is to compare early (occurring within 30 days of surgery) and late (occurring during the follow-up) postoperative complications between both groups The purpose of the study at secondary endpoint is to compare intraoperative and postoperative events between experimental and control groups in terms of operating time, first oral tolerance day, first flatus and faeces, length of hospital stay and orocecal transit; comparing rates of gastrointestinal life quality and comparing mortality rates between both groups.
METHODS: The ISOVANTI trial is a randomized controlled single-centre trial comparing isoperistaltic versus antiperistaltic side-to-side anastomosis after right laparoscopic hemicolectomy. It is designed as a parallel group superiority trial.
CONCLUSIONS: It is unknown if a pseudo-valvular mechanism as antiperistaltic anastomosis can be considered has short- or long-term consequences in gastrointestinal habit. Considering the impact that ileocolic anastomosis configuration could have on the restitution of bowel transit after right hemicolectomy, we think it is indicated and necessary a randomized trial comparing iso- and antiperistaltic modalities.
TRIAL REGISTRATION: NCT02309931.
