Die laparoskopische Kolonchirurgie benötigt oft als unterstützende Massnahme eine präoperative Markierung der Läsion, da dem Chirurgen die intraoperative orientierende Palpation fehlt. Die endoskopische Markierung mit Tusche ist aufgrund der Einfachheit und der langanhaltenden Markierung die Methode der Wahl. Nur wenige Komplikationen sind bei dieser Technik beschrieben. In unserem Fall traten im Anschluss an die Markierung einer idiopathischen ulzerösen Kolonveränderung progrediente Bauchschmerzen auf. Bei der Operation fand sich eine retroperitoneale gedeckte Perforation. Die entzündlichen Veränderungen waren derart, dass ein laparoskopisches Vorgehen unmöglich war und eine offene Hemikolektomie rechts notwendig war. Bei Fieber, Abdominalschmerzen und Zeichen der lokalen Peritonitis im Anschluss an eine endoskopische Tuschmarkierung muss an eine unerwünschte Reaktion auf die Tusche gedacht werden.

Introduction Colonic perforation often requires emergent intervention and carries high morbidity and mortality. The objective of this study was to determine whether nonclinical factors, such as transition of care from outpatient facilities to inpatient settings, are associated with increased risk of mortality in patients who underwent emergent surgical intervention for colonic perforation. Materials and Methods Using the 2006-2015 ACS National Surgical Quality Improvement Program database, we identified adult patients who underwent emergent partial colectomy with primary anastomosis ± protecting ostomy or partial colectomy with ostomy with intraoperative finding of wound class III or IV for a diagnosis of perforated viscus. The outcome of interest was 30-day postoperative mortality. Univariate and multivariate analyses using logistic regression were performed. Results 4705 patients met criteria, of which 841 (17.9%) died. Univariate analysis showed that patients who died after emergent surgery for perforated viscus were more likely to present from a chronic care facility (13.4% vs. 4.4%, P < .0001) and had longer time from admission to undergoing surgery (mean 4.1 vs. 2.0 days, P < .0001. Logistic regression demonstrated that septic shock vs. none (OR 3.60, P < .0001), sepsis vs. none (OR 1.57, P = .00045), transfer from chronic care facility vs. home (OR 1.87, P < .0001), and increased time from admission vs. operation (OR 1.01, P = .0055) were independently associated with increased risk of death. Discussion Transfer from a chronic care facility was independently associated with increased mortality in patients undergoing emergent surgery for perforated viscus.

Background The authors of this article became aware of significant differences in the management of two females with a rectovestibular fistula and associated vaginal agenesis. In one patient, a sigmoid colovaginoplasty was performed at the time of the posterior sagittal anorectoplasty (PSARP), and the other underwent repair of the rectovestibular fistula with a primary PSARP, but the surgeons elected to delay the timing of vaginal reconstruction. We decided to review the literature, to establish if recommendations could be made to optimize the management of these children based on current evidence. Methods A literature review was conducted to determine the management and long-term outcomes in patients with an anorectal malformation and associated vaginal atresia. Specific gynecological outcomes assessed were menstrual egress and adequacy of the vaginal replacement for penile–vaginal intercourse. Results Eighty-eight cases were included in the review. Age at diagnosis had a bimodal distribution: 0 to 5 years, 56%; >10 years, 37%. Vaginal atresia was recognized before the operation in 45 patients. Types of vaginal atresia encountered were: (a) distal vaginal atresia (n = 17), (b) vaginal agenesis with absent Mullerian development (n = 47), (c) vaginal agenesis with variable Mullerian development (n = 17), and (d) cervico-vaginal agenesis (n = 7). Types of vaginal replacement used were sigmoid colovaginoplasty (n = 26), distal rectal fistula as neovagina (n = 30), terminal ileum (n = 5), vaginal pull-through (n = 9), and others/unknown (n = 8). Two patients followed a perineal dilatation program and nine patients await reconstruction. Median follow-up was 18 months (6 weeks to 31 years). Long-term menstrual outcomes were reported in 18 (21%) patients. Sexual function was reported in 10 (11%) patients. Three pregnancies were reported but none resulted in live births. Conclusion Vaginal atresia is often missed in association with ARMs. Management should be in collaboration with pediatric gynecologists. Due to a lack of long-term outcome data, no definite conclusion can be drawn for the best technique, tissue, or timing of vaginal replacement. The opportunity to perform vaginal replacement in conjunction with the rectal repair may be worth considering because of a shallower pelvis, nonscarred tissue planes, and the excellent surgical exposure.
