Background: The relationship between preoperative bowel dysfunction and postoperative ileus has not been explored clinically. We hypothesized chronic partial obstruction, based on preoperative small bowel diameter, is associated with ileus after colon surgery. Methods: This was a retrospective case-control study of patients undergoing right colectomy or ileocolic resection with primary anastomosis. Patients who developed ileus were compared to those who did not. Results: Postoperative ileus occurred in 22 of 69 patients (32%). Preoperative small bowel dilation with maximum diameter >3 cm was present in 13 patients (19%) with 7 developing ileus (54%; p=0.06). In a multivariable model, small bowel dilation >3 cm (OR 4.6; 95% CI: 1.3-16.6) and preoperative weight loss >10 pounds (OR 9.8; 95% CI: 1.6-57.9) were independently associated with ileus. Conclusions: Colorectal surgery patients with preoperative bowel dilation have an increased risk of postoperative ileus. This knowledge can better inform patient expectations for recovery and help guide perioperative nutritional management, particularly with patient selection for parenteral nutrition. |
