Evaluation of an Arterial Calcification Score as a Predictive Factor of Anastomotic Leakage in Right Colectomy

Recruiting
Conditions
Right Colectomy
Registration Number
NCT04002921
Lead Sponsor
Centre Hospitalier Departemental Vendee
Brief Summary

Anastomotic leakage is the major postoperative complication in right colectomy. Evaluation of calcification on coeliac trunk and mesenteric arteries on the preoperative CT scan could allow the identification of patient at-risk of postoperative complications.

A monocentric retrospective study performed at CHD Vendée concluded than a calcification score over or equal to 3 was associated with a higher risk of developping an anastomotic leakage.

The aim of this prospective multicentric study is to validate a calcification score based on preoperative CT scan analysis and focussing at coeliac trunk and mesenteric arteries.This study will involve patients operated on with a scheduled right colectomy.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Total calcification score associated with the occurrence of anastomotic leakage6 weeks after surgery

4 segments:

* Ostium of celiac artery

* Ostium of superior mesenteric artery

* first segment of superior mesenteric artery

* distal segment of superior mesenteric artery Each segment will be assigned a score between 0 and 2. Total score range : 0-8

4 segments:

* Ostium of celiac artery

* Ostium of superior mesenteric artery

* first segment of superior mesenteric artery

* distal segment of superior mesenteric artery Each segment will be assigned a score between 0 and 2.
