1No clear consensus on the need to perform an intracorporeal anastomosis (IA) after laparoscopic right colectomy is currently available. One of the potential benefits of intracorporeal anastomosis may be a reduction in surgical stress. Herein, we evaluated the surgical stress response and the metabolic response in patients who underwent right colonic resection for colon cancer. Fifty-nine patients who underwent laparoscopic resection for right colon cancer were randomized to receive an intracorporeal or an extracorporeal anastomosis (EA). Data including demographics (age, sex, BMI and ASA score), pathological (AJCC tumour stage and tumour localization) and surgical results were recorded.
Moreover, to determine the levels of the inflammatory response, mediators, such as C-reactive protein (CRP), tumour necrosis factor (TNF), interleukin 1β (IL-1β), IL-6, IL-10, and IL-13, were evaluated.
Similarly, cortisol and insulin levels were evaluated as hormonal responses to surgical stress. We found that the proinflammatory mediator IL-6, CRP, TNF and IL-1β levels, were significantly reduced in IA compared to EA. Concurrently, an improved profile of the anti-inflammatory cytokines IL-10 and IL-13 was observed in the IA group. Relative to the hormone response to surgical stress, cortisol was increased in patients who underwent EA, while insulin was reduced in the EA group. Based on these results, surgical stress and metabolic response to IA justify advocating the adoption of a totally laparoscopic approach when performing a right colectomy for cancer.
This trial is registered on ClinicalTrials.gov (ID: NCT03422588).
Laparoscopic surgery for right-sided colon cancer has achieved a high degree of diffusion in surgical practice and has been widely accepted as an improvement over open procedures
1. Less is known about the need for fashioning an intracorporeal anastomosis (IA). Even if recent studies and meta-analyses have been published to demonstrate the safety of intracorporeal anastomosis
2, less is known about the advantages of a totally laparoscopic approach with respect to tissue damage. One of the major advantages could be a better stress response to surgery, but only one recent paper has been published on this topic: in a randomized trial on 60 patients, Mari et al. demonstrated that an IA in laparoscopic right hemicolectomy reduces surgical stress, which may play a role in bowel recovery
3. This is probably due to the reduced tissue injury and mobilization that characterize the extracorporeal approach.
New data introduced in 2018 by Mari and colleagues finds support in the RCTs of Allaix
4and Bollo
5, which have demonstrated superiority of the intracorporeal approach in terms of recovery outcomes; however, surgical stress as a possible reason was not considered. The fundamental role of inflammatory mediators in colorectal surgery had already been hypothesized by Siekmann, whose study aimed to investigate the difference between open and laparoscopic surgery on postsurgical analgesia
