摘 要:Introduction-Fecal continence with a perineal colostomy performed after abdominoperineal resection (APR) is not always satisfactory despite retrograde colonic enemas. Functional improvement is currently examined using artificial sphincters. Preliminary results are disclosed. Patients-In 3 female patients, 45, 59 and 68 years old, curative APR and perineal colostomy were performed after radiotherapy in 2, for T1-2N0 cancer of the lower rectum. Due to occasional leaks, need for strict diet and fear of incontinence,an Acticon Neosphincter(r) (AMS)was implanted consecutively at a mean 4.5 years after APR. Results-Device implantation was feasible and uneventful. In one case, a superficial hematoma was drained and healed by second intention. Devices were activated 3 months after implantation. At a mean 2.5 years follow-up, the 3 patients had an activated and functional artificial sphincter. Leaks and fecal urgency significantly decreased but colonic enemas were maintained. Dietary restrictions were less and quality of life improved. All 3 considered the device as a useful adjunct. Conclusion-In this limited experience, implantation of artificial sphincter around a perineal colostomy following APR for rectal cancer appeared feasible and safe even in case or previous radiotherapy. Midterm tolerance was satisfactory. Continence and quality of life significantly improved.Introduction-Fecal continence with a perineal colostomy performed after abdominoperineal resection (APR) is not always satisfactory despite retrograde colonic enemas.
