About this study

Official title: J-Pouch vs Side-to-End Anastomosis After Hand-Assisted Laparoscopic Low Anterior Resection for Rectal Cancer: Short and Long-Term Outcomes of a Prospective Randomized Trial

Current study aims to analyze the outcomes of j-pouch and side-to-end anastomosis in rectal cancer patients treated with laparoscopic hand-assisted low anterior resection

Being tested
Linear cutter-Circular stapler, Circular stapler
Medical subject headings
Fecal Incontinence, Postoperative Complications

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Linear cutter-Circular staplerDevice

    a 5 to 6 cm-long colonic pouch will be created with a 80 mm linear cutting-closing stapler. The anastomosis of j-pouch will be routinely strengthened with 3:0 vicryl sutures. Then, a pouch to anal anastomosis will be performed

  • Circular staplerDevice

    a 5 to 6 cm-long colonic segment will be left at the distal part and a side-to-end anastomosis will be performed.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Short Form 36 Quality of life Questionnaire

    Measured: Change from baseline scores at 4th, 8th and 12th months after stoma reversal

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Postoperative complications

    Measured: 30 days postoperatively

  2. Functional outcome measured with Fecal Incontinence Severity Index

    Measured: Change from baseline scores at 4th, 8th and 12th months after stoma reversal

  3. Functional outcome measured with Sexual Health Inventory

    Measured: Change from baseline scores at 4th, 8th and 12th months after stoma reversal

  4. Functional outcome measured with Overactive Bladder validated 8 scale

    Measured: Change from baseline scores at 4th, 8th and 12th months after stoma reversal

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Linear cutter-Circular stapler and Circular stapler in people with Quality of Life and Fecal Incontinence, run by Dr. Lutfi Kirdar Kartal Training and Research Hospital.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 11 Dec 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Short Form 36 Quality of life Questionnaire (time frame: Change from baseline scores at 4th, 8th and 12th months after stoma reversal). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 11 Dec 2015.
