Filter by:The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of micronized purified flavonoid fraction on postoperative symptoms after surgery of anorectal fistulas.
To evaluate the safety and feasibility of ExoFlo as a treatment for Perianal Fistulizing Crohn's Disease.
The purpose of this study is to compare the clinical effectiveness of augmenting surgical repair of complex anal fistula using autologous PRP and/or micronized acellular porcine urinary bladder matrix (UBM) to usual surgical care alone to prevent fistula recurrence or improve HRQoL, to compare the effects of augmenting surgical repair of complex anal fistula using autologous PRP and/or micronized acellular porcine urinary bladder matrix on early postoperative pain and fecal continence and to assess the cost utility of augmented complex fistula repair relative to usual surgical care
Crohn's disease (CD) is a life-long chronic inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) that may affect any site of the gastrointestinal tract, most frequently the ileum and colon. It is characterized by transmural inflammation and it can lead to strictures, due to activation of reparation of inflamed tissues and consequent fibrosis, or penetrating lesions, such as fistulas, between two different intestinal tracts or between intestine and surrounding organs. Fistula occurrence can lead to formation of abdominal or pelvic abscesses. Such complications cause intestinal damage and usually require surgery, leading to disability, impairment of patients' quality of life, with significant impact on direct and indirect health-care costs
In this prospective, randomized trail, duration of non-cutting seton placement in patients with fistula-in-ano is evaluated.
The goal of this clinical trial is to assesses the safety of autologous RD2 Ver.02 as compared to a control for managing transsphincteric and intersphinsteric anal fistulas. The main questions it aims to answer are: Assess the safety and efficacy of RD2 Ver.02 in anal fistula application, compared to control. Complication rate by 6 months of anal fistula treatment with RD2 Ver.02 compared to control. Recurrence of anal fistula at 12 months post-treatment Incidence of perirectal infection by 6 months in anal fistulas treated with RD2 Ver.02 compared to control. Patients will be randomized in to 2 arms. For all patients, blood will be drawn to ensure the blinding of the patients, the fistula will be evaluated and debrided, and then the internal fistula opening will be suture-closed, and a water leak test will be performed to ensure sealing. Following the water leak test, In the treatment arm, the patient's own coagulating blood will be applied into the entire fistula tract, allowing it to clot and serve as a provisional matrix inside the fistula tract. In the control arm, the blood sample will be discarded and saline will be applied to the fistula tract.
The purpose of this open, multicenter pilot trial is to evaluate the tolerance of the combination of a gel and a plug made of Wharton's jelly in the treatment of ano-perineal fistulas resistant to surgical treatment.
The accurate assessment of intraoperative tissue perfusion is essential in any branch of surgery. Anastomotic leakage (AL) is one of the most feared complications following gastrointestinal surgery, with potentially threatening consequences resulting in worsened short- and long-term outcomes. Consistently, a recent meta-analysis showed a correlation between AL and shorter disease-free survival in colorectal surgery. Despite its multifactorial origin, AL is highly related to inadequate visceral perfusion. Traditionally, perfusion assessment and subsequent anastomotic viability have been evaluated by surgeons using intraoperative indicators, such as color, pulsation of vessels, presence of peristalsis and bleeding from the resection lines. However, these clinical parameters are not able to reliably assess the real visceral perfusion and their evaluation is limited in minimally invasive surgery. Hence, the growing interest for innovative techniques able to properly assess tissue perfusion. Among these, the fluorescence angiography (FA) with indocyanine green (ICG) has become increasingly popular during the last decade, although its approval for biomedical purposes by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) dates back to 1956. ICG is an amphiphilic, non-toxic, tricarbocyanine iodide dye that can be safely injected intravenously and is exclusively eliminated by the liver, without any absorption. Thanks to its fluorescent properties, it allows the real-time visualization of tissue vascularization. FA with ICG has shown promising results for the evaluation of perfusion in numerous surgical procedures, thus leading to modifications of the surgical strategy and consequently to a decrease in the rates of AL. On the other hand, ICG interpretation is subjective, based on the evaluation of fluorescence performed by the operating surgeon. These results lack into a high inter-observer variability and affect the possibility to obtain objective, reproducible and reliable tissue perfusion assessments. Quantitative fluorescence angiography with ICG (Q-ICG) could overcome these limitations. In Q-ICG the fluorescence signal is elaborated by a new computer quantification algorithm and translated into a fluorescence-time curve (FTC), from which several Q-ICG parameters and values can be extracted. Given the power of ICG in reflecting the perfusion of examined tissues, a new quantification algorithm has the potential to turn the subjective parameters derived from surgeon's perspective into objective numeric values. The primary aim of this study is to evaluate which Q-ICG values provided by a new quantification algorithm correspond to subjective perfusion parameters usually evaluated by the surgeon in patients undergoing left colon, rectal or esophagogastric resections. The secondary aim is to evaluate possible correlations between Q-ICG values provided by the quantification algorithm and perioperative outcomes.
