Endoscopically-assisted sigmoidostoma formation is a simple, minimally invasive technique for fecal diversion. This procedure is comparable to laparoscopic methods and offers a viable alternative for select patients.

Area of Science:

  • Gastrointestinal Surgery
  • Minimally Invasive Procedures
  • Surgical Techniques

Context:

  • Sigmoidostoma formation is a common procedure for fecal diversion.
  • Laparoscopic-assisted stoma formation is increasingly utilized over traditional laparotomy.
  • Endoscopically-assisted sigmoidostoma formation is a less common but technically simpler alternative.

Purpose:

  • To evaluate the feasibility and outcomes of endoscopically-assisted sigmoidostoma formation.
  • To compare endoscopically-assisted sigmoidostoma formation with laparoscopic-assisted techniques.
  • To assess the technical simplicity and efficacy of this minimally invasive approach.

Summary:

  • Twenty-four endoscopically-assisted sigmoidostoma formations were performed retrospectively.

  • The procedure was successful in most cases, with a few requiring conversion or revision.
  • One patient with rectal cancer experienced a postoperative death.
  • Impact:

    • Endoscopically-assisted sigmoidostoma formation is a technically simple, minimally invasive procedure.
    • It is considered equivalent to laparoscopic-assisted sigmoidostoma formation.
    • Recommended for patients needing sigmoidostomy without concurrent need for laparotomy.
