One-stage subtotal colectomy offers oncological radicality and immediate relief for left colon tumors causing ileus. This procedure leads to faster recovery, avoids stomas, and has low morbidity and mortality, making it ideal for elderly patients.

Area of Science:

  • Gastroenterology and Surgical Oncology

Context:

  • Ileus resulting from left-sided colon tumors necessitates radical surgical intervention.
  • Obturating tumors of the left colon present significant challenges in management.

Purpose:

  • To evaluate the efficacy and outcomes of one-stage subtotal colectomy for ileus caused by left colon tumors.
  • To highlight the advantages of this surgical approach in a series of patients.

Summary:

  • The study details the experience with one-stage subtotal colectomy in 10 patients over three years.
  • Key benefits include oncological radicality, immediate detoxification, favorable postoperative course, low morbidity (10% dehiscence) and mortality (10%), shorter hospital stays, avoidance of stomas, reduced costs, and satisfactory functional results.
  • The procedure is considered the method of choice for experienced surgeons with adequate intensive care, even in very elderly patients.
