Abstrakt: Objectives: The objective of this study is to investigate long-term outcomes of antegrade continence enema (ACE) treatment in children with constipation or fecal incontinence.
Methods: Prospective cohort study including pediatric patients with organic or functional defecation disorders who started ACE treatment. Data were collected at baseline and at follow-up (FU) from 6 weeks until 60 months. We assessed parent and patient-reported gastrointestinal health-related quality of life (HRQoL) using the Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory Gastrointestinal Symptoms Module (PedsQL-GI), gastrointestinal symptoms, adverse events, and patient satisfaction.
Results: Thirty-eight children were included (61% male, median age 7.7 years, interquartile range 5.5-12.2). Twenty-two children (58%) were diagnosed with functional constipation (FC), 10 (26%) with an anorectal malformation, and 6 (16%) with Hirschsprung disease. FU questionnaires were completed by 22 children (58%) at 6 months, 16 children (42%) at 12 months, 20 children (53%) at 24 months, and 10 children (26%) at 36 months. PedsQL-GI scores improved overall with a significant increase at 12- and 24-month FU for children with FC and a significant increase in parent reported PedsQL-GI score at 36-month FU for children with organic causes. Minor adverse events, such as granulation tissue, were reported in one-third of children, and 10% of children needed a surgical revision of their ACE. The majority of all parents and children reported that they would "probably" or "definitely" choose ACE again.
Conclusion: ACE treatment is perceived positively by patients and parents and can lead to long-term improvement in gastrointestinal HRQoL in children with organic or functional defecation disorders.
