Increased risk of incisional hernia after stoma closure in patients with colorectal cancer.
Surgery Today 2024 May 9
PURPOSE: Stoma construction and closure are common surgical strategies in patients with colorectal cancer. The present study evaluated the influence of multiple incisional sites resulting from stoma closure on incisional hernia after colorectal cancer surgery.
METHODS: The study included 1681 patients who underwent colorectal cancer surgery. Multiple incisional sites were defined as the coexistence of incisions at the midline and stoma closure sites. We retrospectively investigated the relationship between the presence of multiple incisional sites and incisional hernia development in patients with colorectal cancer.
RESULTS: Among the 1681 patients, 420 (25%) underwent stoma construction, with a stoma closure-to-construction ratio of 33% (139/420), and 155 (9.2%) developed incisional hernias after colorectal cancer surgery. In the multivariate analysis, female sex (p < 0.001), body mass index (p < 0.001), multiple incisional sites (p = 0.001), wound infection (p = 0.003), and postoperative chemotherapy (p = 0.030) were independent predictors of incisional hernia. In the multiple incisional sites group, the age (p < 0.001), surgical approach (laparoscopic) (p = 0.013), wound infection rate (p = 0.046), small bowel obstruction rate (p < 0.001), and anastomotic leakage rate (p = 0.008) were higher in those in the single incisional site group.
CONCLUSIONS: Multiple incisional sites resulting from stoma closure are associated with the development of incisional hernia following colorectal cancer surgery.
