About this study

This study was a multicenter, retrospective cohort study. Although advancements in surgical techniques have mitigated the incidence of intestinal anastomotic fistula, complete avoidance remains elusive. Anastomotic leakage (AL) complications directly impinge on postoperative quality of life and pose life-threatening risks if inadequately managed. Given AL's adverse prognostic implications and the financial strain on patients' families, identifying its risk factors aids in perioperative risk assessment, enabling timely clinical decisions on interventions to enhance prognosis and curtail adverse outcomes and economic investments.

Read the detailed description

Optimal cytoreduction, particularly in advanced cases, significantly extends 5-year survival compared to cases with residual disease exceeding 1 cm. Consequently, ultra-radical tumor cytoreduction procedures, commonly performed in advanced ovarian cancer, entail the excision of abdominopelvic tissues affected by the primary ovarian malignancy, including segments of the bowel, bladder, spleen, gallbladder, diaphragm, and other organs. Rectosigmoid resection (RSR) emerges as the predominant bowel resection, followed by colon and small bowel resections. Intestinal anastomosis post-RSR is indispensable for bowel reconstruction but bears a notable risk of postoperative anastomotic fistula (AL), a major complication. AL incidence rates fluctuate over time, reported between 8-14% in OC surgery patients undergoing RSR.

AL imposes considerable burdens, encompassing elevated hospital costs, prolonged stays, heightened rates of secondary admissions and surgeries, and mortality rates ranging from 3% to 21%. Furthermore, AL delays the commencement of adjuvant chemotherapy, detrimentally impacting overall survival and representing a significant consequence of colorectal surgery.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Ovarian Cancer, run by Zhongda Hospital at 1 site in China.

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 4 inclusion and 3 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 16 Jul 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

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?

Risk Factors and a Prediction Model for Postoperative Intestinal Anastomotic Leakage in Ovarian Cancer (time frame: 1 month after surgery). 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 16 Jul 2026.
