Study Overview
Brief Summary
For patients with Crohn's diseases,whether prophylactic abdominal drainage is necessary need further exploration. the present study is focusing on the necessity of prophylactic abdominal drainage in CD patients after surgery.
Detailed Description
In the past decades, surgical dogma meant the correct placement of a prophylactic drain, with the aim of reducing the incidence of anastomotic leakage, decreasing the needs of reoperation and avoiding potential postoperative ascites. However, recent randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and meta-analyses have suggested that prophylactic peritoneal drains have no benefits on postoperative outcomes.
Crohn's disease (CD), which is definitely different from CRC, is a chronic inflammatory disease with unknown pathogenesis. CD itself was the independent risk factor of multiple postoperative complications, including anastomotic leakage, intraperitoneal abscess and catheter-associated bloodstream infection.
In the present RCT, we hypothesize that non-prophylactic peritoneal drainage is associated with increased incidence of postoperative non-septic complications.

- None
Masking Description
Investigators, surgical team and patients were not blinded to the assignment. In the the drain group, a 28 G latex tube was placed in the pelvic cavity intraoperatively and in the no-drain group, no drain was positioned. 30-day postoperative complications were assessed.
