Is percutaneous tibial nerve stimulation (PTNS) effective for fecal incontinence (FI) in adults compared with sham electrical stimulation? A meta-analysis
ConclusionsOur meta-analysis revealed that PTNS was more effective than sham stimulation in reducing FI episodes and led to a higher proportion of patients reporting more than a 50% reduction in weekly FI episodes. (Source: Techniques in Coloproctology)

Evaluating geographical disparities on clinical outcomes following cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy
ConclusionsMost oncological, surgical and QoL parameters did not differ by geographical location of patients undergoing CRS and HIPEC for peritoneal malignancies at a high-volume quaternary referral centre. Observed differences in recurrence and survival may be attributed to the selective nature of surgical referrals and variable follow-up patterns. Future research should focus on characterising referral pathways and its influence on post-operative outcomes. (Source: Techniques in Coloproctology)

Value of combined serum CEA, CA72-4, and CA19-9 marker detection in diagnosis of colorectal cancer
ConclusionsThe combination of CA72-4, CEA, and CA19-9 markers increases the sensitivity and accuracy in the diagnosis of colorectal cancer and can thus be considered an important tool for early colorectal diagnosis. (Source: Techniques in Coloproctology)

Early diverting stoma closure is feasible and safe: results from a before-and-after study on the implementation of an early closure protocol at a tertiary referral center
ConclusionsThe ECP was able to significantly reduce intervals to restoration of bowel continuity in patients with DS, which in turn resulted in a direct impact on the reduction of DS morbidity without negatively affecting DS closure morbidity. (Source: Techniques in Coloproctology)

Comparison of hand-sewn anterior repair, resection and hand-sewn anastomosis, resection and stapled anastomosis techniques for the reversal of diverting loop ileostomy after low anterior rectal resection: a randomized clinical trial
ConclusionsResection and stapled anastomosis had the shortest duration among the three techniques; however, anterior repair had faster recovery, including earlier tolerated oral diet, gas passing and defecation, and discharge, in comparison with the other techniques.Trial registrationTrial registration number IRCT20120129008861N5.

Liposomal bupivacaine versus conventional anesthetic or placebo for hemorrhoidectomy: a systematic review and meta-analysis
ConclusionsComparing LB to conventional anesthetic/placebo anesthetic for hemorrhoidectomy, we found a statistically significant reduction in pain through 72  h, decreased opioid requirements, and delayed time to first opioid use. Moreover, the conventional anesthetic/placebo group reported more pain in bowel movement than LB groups. (Source: Techniques in Coloproctology)

Sclerotherapy for hemorrhoidal disease: systematic review and meta-analysis
ConclusionsThis systematic review highlights the safety and efficacy of sclerotherapy for HD, which yields similar success rates and fewer complications compared to other conservative or surgical approaches. Further research is warranted to optimize sclerotherapy techniques and evaluate long-term outcomes.RegistrationPROSPERO 2023 CRD42023396910. (Source: Techniques in Coloproctology)
