Colonic stenting is now the preferred treatment either for palliation or as a bridge to surgery for obstructed colorectal cancer. It reduces complications from emergency surgery and the need for colostomy formation. However, stent perforation can lead to peritoneal tumor spillage, a higher rate of infection and changing the risk of a potentially curable disease to an incurable one. Therefore, it is important to study the optimum time for operation after stent insertion.From January 2006 to January 2012, 30 cases of acute left-sided malignant colorectal obstruction were managed by expandable metallic stent (SEMS) as a bridge to surgery. In all, 19 males and 11 females with mean age of 60.07±12.19 years (range 40-80 years) were included in the study. The obstructed locations were 1 case at the transverse colon, 6 cases at the descending colon, 13 cases at the sigmoid colon, 5 cases at the upper third at the rectum and 5 cases involving the middle third of the rectum.The perforation of SEMS was founded in 11 cases (36.67%). The mean bridging time before operation in the nonperforated group was 5.54 (±1.29) days shorter than in the perforated group, 10.54 (±4.82) days (p0.001). All of the subjects in the perforated group reported clinical lower abdominal pain without sign of peritonitis, developed in an average 4.5 days (3-7 days).The optimum bridging time for surgery should be within 5 days. |
