After the left colon has been mobilized, the sigmoid colon can be transected anywhere along
its surface from rectum to descending colon that is appropriate for the disease process. The rectosigmoid colon is transected in a mesenteric-to-antimesenteric direction with a linear cutter stapler at the sacral promontory to provide the distal end of the anastomosis (Figure
7-13).
u
The IMA pedicle or the left colic vessels can be divided at their origin or along the vessel
pedicle at a point appropriate for the disease process as the left colon is mobilized from the retroperitoneal structures (Figure 7-14). The IMV can be ligated at its origin adjacent to the third portion of the duodenum with the left colon retracted anteriorly and the small bowel and right colon retracted to the patient’s right (Figure 7-15).
u
The transverse colon is pulled inferiorly. The surgeon’s left hand is passed through the defect
of the ileocolic vessels and encircles the middle colic vessels. These vessels form a “V” and can be easily identified and divided outside the pancreatic tissue to protect the anterior surface of the pancreas (Figure 7-16).

The anastomosis is accomplished by opening the antimesenteric corner of the transverse
staple line on the sigmoid colon and the ileum. The small bowel is positioned to the left side of the abdomen with the cut edge of the mesentery placed toward the midline. The terminal ileum is allowed to fall to the left side of the pelvis, and the small bowel is brought up along the edge of the left side of the rectum (Figure 7-17A). The sigmoid is positioned along the right side of the pelvis, and the linear cutter stapler is placed down the open corners of the transverse staple lines to create a side-to-side anastomosis (Figures 7-17B and 7-18).
u
The transverse opening of the anastomosis is opened widely, the longitudinal staple lines are
distracted as far as possible, and the opening is brought together with Allis clamps. The transverse opening is closed with a second firing of the linear cutter stapler (Figure 7-19). The mesenteric defect is closed by placing a running suture from the pelvic brim down the mesentery of the sigmoid colon along the mesentery of the small bowel all the way up to the base of the duodenum to prevent herniation and twisting (Figure 7-20). The transverse staple line of the ileosigmoid anastomosis is oversewn with a running Lembert suture line of 3-0 absorbable suture to invert and protect the transverse staple line (Figure 7-21).
u
An adhesive barrier can be applied, and the abdomen is closed with a running No. 1 loop
absorbable suture.

Step 4: Postoperative Care

Patients are ambulated early. Intravenous fluid replacement is given to maintain a urine output of greater than 30 mL/hr. Nasogastric decompression is not required unless the patient becomes nauseated. Most patients tolerate clear liquids within 24 to 48 hours, and the diet can be advanced as tolerated. Patients should be given prophylactic antibiotics for 24 hours, incentive spirometry, and deep vein thrombosis prophylaxis and encouraged to ambulate as much as possible during the early postoperative period. Usual hospital stay after an open right colectomy is 4 to 5 days; the hospital stay is shorter when the patient is placed on a fast-track postopera­tive regimen. Postoperative analgesia is usually managed with patient-controlled analgesia fol­lowed by a switch to oral analgesics.

Step 5: Pearls and Pitfalls

The ileorectal anastomosis sometimes begins functioning rapidly and suddenly stops causing nausea, vomiting, and general malaise. This “ileorectal syndrome” may be due to the small intestine being exposed to a higher pressure created by the rectal vault. Placement of a 34-F mushroom catheter in the rectum during the first week of recovery may alleviate this problem or prevent it from occurring. The bowel slowly recovers over 7 to 10 days. An anastomotic leak must be ruled out. Parenteral nutrition allows the patient time to recover normal bowel func­tion. When feeding resumes, a liquid diet is usually best until function normalizes.

The rectum varies in length in individuals. The usual length of 12 to 15 cm is adequate to provide a meaningful reservoir. Occasionally, the blood supply provided by the middle hemor­rhoidal vessels via the internal iliac artery through the anterior lateral ligaments is inadequate. If this inadequacy can be determined preoperatively or suspected intraoperatively, the superior hemorrhoidal artery can be saved during sigmoid mesenteric dissection and good blood supply guaranteed. If the IMA has been sacrificed, and blood supply fails to the upper rectum, the only option is to resect more rectum to find well-vascularized tissue. Continued uncertainty regard­ing blood supply should lead to a decision to perform an end ileostomy and leave a Hartmann’s stump at the level of reasonable blood supply.
The length of the rectal stump is also mandated by the need to perform long-term surveil­lance for malignancy. Patients with familial adenomatous polyposis, hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer, or Crohn’s disease require endoscopic surveillance. A short (12-cm) stump is easy to follow in the office setting.

Abdominal Colectomy and

Step 1: Clinical Anatomy

The right colon lies on the patient’s right side suspended laterally by peritoneal attachments to the right side of the abdominal wall, superiorly by attachments to the undersurface of the liver and posterior diaphragm, and medially by its mesentery. The ileocolic artery and vein and the right colic artery, if it is present, run through this leaf of mesentery. The colon is adherent to the retroperitoneum on the right side of the abdomen and covers the right gonadal vessels and right ureter. The inferior vena cava is the next most medial structure on the right side. The hepatic flexure, the fold at the junction between the right colon and transverse colon, is adher­ent to the anterior surface of the kidney by avascular attachments to Gerota’s fascia. The first and second portions of the duodenum are adherent to the undersurface of the mesentery of the right colon and proximal transverse colon. The gallbladder is sometimes adherent to the cepha­lad surface of the transverse colon at the hepatic flexure.
The space behind the right colon is triangular shaped with the flat horizontal surface at the hepatic flexure running from the abdominal side wall toward the midline along the line of the greater curve of the stomach. The vertical axis follows the right lateral side wall of the abdomen. The hypotenuse runs from the fusion plane of the cecum at the pelvic brim over the top of the right iliac artery and vein at about the point where the ureter passes over the iliac vessels toward the midline over the aorta up to the base of the pancreas along the third portion of the duode­num. This triangular retroperitoneal area is a potential space with avascular attachments and allows the right colon to be lifted completely from the retroperitoneum during dissection. Release of all suspensory attachments allows the right colon to be made into a midline structure. The ileocolic artery and vein arise from the superior mesenteric artery (SMA) and superior mesenteric vein in the midportion of the SMA below the duodenum. The right colic artery is a variable structure and may be present as a separate structure or as part of the ileocolic trunk. The right branch of the middle colic artery exits through the pancreatic tissue from its origin on the SMA as a portion of the middle colic trunk at the base of the transverse mesocolon (Figure 8-1).

The left branches of the middle colic artery and vein exit adjacent to the right branch of the middle colic and are found at the third portion of the duodenum over the pancreas. The inferior mesenteric vein (IMV) travels along the window of the base of the mesentery of the colon and enters the portal vein adjacent to the ligament of Treitz at the base of the splenic flexure mes­entery. This area of the vasculature to the colon is extremely complex and should be studied carefully before mobilization of the transverse colon. The mesentery of the transverse colon itself is sometimes attached to filmy attachments of the posterior aspect of the stomach. The omentum falls from the gastroepiploic artery along the greater curve of the stomach over the transverse colon where it attaches tangentially to the antimesenteric surface of the transverse colon and then continues to the lower aspect of the abdomen free-floating over the surface of the small bowel.
The splenic flexure of the colon sits in the left upper quadrant with a surface adherent to the undersurface of the tip of the spleen, the anterior surface of the left kidney, and the anterior surface of the tail of the pancreas. A portion of the base of the mesentery of the transverse colon is attached to the undersurface of the tail of the pancreas starting at the level of the IMV and extending laterally toward the left side of the abdomen (Figure 8-2). These attachments can be released by developing avascular planes given knowledge of the peritoneal windows, areolar tissue planes, and structural relationships. The left colon itself is adherent to the retroperitoneum in the left gutter via an avascular filmy tissue plane that attaches the mesentery and left colon to the posterior abdominal wall where the ureter and gonadal vessels are found. The peritoneal attachments along the left gutter of the abdomen suspend the left colon from the left side of the abdomen from the pelvic brim all the way up to the splenic flexure. The splenic flexure is a fold of the colon with its apex attached to the tip of the spleen by omental congenital adhesions.
The splenic flexure is usually covered by the omentum as it falls over the top of the transverse colon along the left gutter, and numerous embryologic attachments can occur between the antimesenteric surface of the proximal left colon and the omentum at the splenic flexure. The left colon descends along the left gutter to the level of the pelvic brim where the colon becomes free from the pelvic side wall and falls into a sigmoid-appearing structure known as the sigmoid colon. The sigmoid colon lies free in the pelvis, attached only posteriorly to its vascular attach­ments at the midline over the sacral promontory.
The inferior mesenteric artery (IMA) arises from the anterior surface of the aorta proximal to the origin of the common iliac vessels. The IMA branches to give the superior hemorrhoidal artery descending into the posterior mesorectal vessel and the ascending left colic vessel, which sweeps up toward the splenic flexure. The IMV runs across the base of the mesentery of the left colon, crossing the superior hemorrhoidal and left colic vessels on its way to the duodenum. There is a clear peritoneal window between the aorta and the IMV, which can be used to enter the avascular plane behind the left colon mesentery and the retroperitoneum.

Step 2: Preoperative Considerations

Common indications for a laparoscopic total abdominal colectomy with ileorectal anastomosis are the same as for an open procedure and include synchronous colon cancers, familial cancer syndromes (hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer, familial adenomatous polyposis with rectal sparing, and cancer in patients <40 years old), colonic inertia, Crohn’s colitis with rectal sparing, and gastrointestinal bleeding. The preparation of the patient is dictated by the specific indication, and the appropriate evaluations should be undertaken. A mechanical bowel prepara­tion with oral agents is not necessary but is frequently performed to reduce stool in the colon. If the patient has a history of constipation, the colon can be too heavy with retained stool to allow a safe laparoscopic approach. The left side of the colon can be adequately cleansed with several enemas before surgery. Routine deep vein thrombosis prophylaxis, prophylactic antibiot­ics, and instructions on postoperative care are required. Patients should receive education on
