Abstract
Purpose: This study aims to compare side-to-side anastomosis (SSA) and end-to-side anastomosis (ESA) in laparoscopic right hemicolectomy from multiple perspectives to guide the selection of the optimal anastomotic technique.
Methods: This review was pre-registered with PROSPERO (CRD42024614418). A comprehensive literature search was performed using Embase, PubMed, Cochrane Library, and China Biology Medicine (CBM). The primary outcome was anastomotic complications, and secondary outcomes included non-anastomotic complications, short-term prognosis, and surgical parameters.
Results: A total of 18 articles involving 14,555 participants were included in this systematic review and meta-analysis. No significant difference was found between SSA and ESA regarding overall anastomotic complications (OR = 1.14, 95% CI = 0.81 to 1.62, P = 0.45). However, SSA showed advantages in reducing postoperative anastomotic bleeding (OR = 0.64, 95% CI = 0.45 to 0.90, P = 0.01), while ESA appeared more favorable for reducing anastomotic leakage (AL) (OR = 1.29, 95% CI = 0.97 to 1.73, P = 0.08) and intestinal obstruction (OR = 1.20, 95% CI = 0.99 to 1.47, P = 0.07), though these differences were not statistically significant. No significant differences were found in non-anastomotic complications, short-term prognosis, or surgical parameters.
Conclusion: Current clinical evidence suggests that SSA is more effective than ESA in reducing postoperative anastomotic bleeding during right hemicolectomy for cancer. However, no significant differences were observed between the two techniques regarding overall anastomotic.
期刊介绍:
The International Journal of Colorectal Disease, Clinical and Molecular Gastroenterology and Surgery aims to publish novel and state-of-the-art papers which deal with the physiology and pathophysiology of diseases involving the entire gastrointestinal tract. In addition to original research articles, the following categories will be included: reviews (usually commissioned but may also be submitted), case reports, letters to the editor, and protocols on clinical studies.
The journal offers its readers an interdisciplinary forum for clinical science and molecular research related to gastrointestinal disease.
