Overview
Brief Summary
This study aimed at comparing the Comprehensive Complication Index (CCI), readmission rates, postoperative hospitalization days, duration of bearing the stoma (months), hospitalization costs, the number of hospitalizations with virtual ileostomy versus conventional divertingileostomy after total mesorectal excision for rectal cancer.
Detailed Description
Diverting ileostomy (DI) is a common procedure performed in patients undergoing total mesorectal excision for rectal cancer to protect the anastomosis and reduce the risk of complications. Although DI remains one of the most common methods used in clinical practice to prevent anastomotic leakage, there is still considerable debate in clinical practice about whether to perform a routine ileostomy. Despite temporary ileostomy fecal diversion can reduce the development of abdominal abscesses, wound inflammation, peritonitis, and sepsis after the occurrence of AL, however, it not only failed to reduce the incidence of AL but significantly increased the risk of non-elective readmissions and reinterventions as well as higher total costs. Meanwhile, stoma significantly increase the risk of stoma-related complication such as small bowel obstruction, postoperative ileus, dehydration from high-output stoma culminating in acute kidney injury, electrolyte imbalance, stoma stenosis/ necrosis, parastomal hernia, peristomal abscess, and fistula, etc.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Calculation postoperative of the Comprehensive Complication Index (CCI) for each patient
Time Frame: An average of 1 year from the date of total mesorectal excision for rectal cancer until the date of when the patient's condition is stabilized without complications
The Comprehensive Complication Index (CCI)summarises all postoperative complications based on the established Clavien-Dindo classification (ranging from mild complications not leading to a deviation from the normal clinical course (grade I) up to postoperative death (grade V)) at an individual patient level according to their grade of severity.
Secondary Outcomes
- Postoperative hospitalization days(Through study completion, an average of 1 year)
- Readmission rates(Through study completion, an average of 1 year)
- The number of hospitalizations(Through study completion, an average of 1 year)
- Duration of bearing the stoma (months)(Through study completion, an average of 1 year)
- First hospitalization costs(During hospitalization,approximately 7 days)
- Total hospitalization costs(Through study completion, an average of 1 year)
