- Comparing three-dimensional endorectal ultrasound and magnification chromoendoscopy for early rectal neoplasia invasion depth assessment(2024) PINTO, Rodrigo Ambar; KAWAGUTI, Fabio Shiguehissa; KIMURA, Cintia Mayumi Sakurai; CORREA NETO, Isaac Jose Felippe; NAHAS, Caio Sergio Rizkallah; MARQUES, Carlos Frederico Sparapan; BUSTAMANTE-LOPEZ, Leonardo Alfonso; RIBEIRO-JR, Ulysses; MALUF-FILHO, Fauze; NAHAS, Sergio CarlosIntroductionAccurate assessment of invasion depth of early rectal neoplasms is essential for optimal therapy. We aimed to compare three-dimensional endorectal ultrasound (3D-ERUS) with magnification chromoendoscopy (MCE) regarding their accuracy in assessing parietal invasion depth (T).MethodsPatients with middle and distal rectum neoplasms were prospectively included. Two providers blinded to each other's assessment performed 3D-ERUS and MCE, respectively. The T stage assessed through ERUS was compared to the MCE evaluation. The results were compared to the surgical specimen anatomopathological report. Sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, positive (PPV), and negative (NPV) predictive values were calculated for the T stage and for the final therapy (local excision or radical surgery).ResultsIn 8 years, 70 patients were enrolled, and all underwent both exams. MCE and ERUS showed an accuracy of 94.3% and 85.7%, sensitivity of 83.7 and 93.3%, specificity of 96.4 and 83.6%, PPV of 86.7 and 60.9%, and NPV of 96.4 and 97.9%, respectively. Kappa for T stage assessed through ERUS was 0.64 and 0.83 for MCE.ConclusionMCE and 3D-ERUS had good diagnostic performance, but the endoscopic method had higher accuracy. Both methods reliably assessed lesion extension, circumferential involvement, and distance from the anal verge.
- Are Obese Patients at an Increased Risk of Pelvic Floor Dysfunction Compared to Non-obese Patients?(2017) CORREA NETO, Isaac Jose Felippe; PINTO, Rodrigo Ambar; JORGE, Jose Marcio Neves; SANTO, Marco Aurelio; BUSTAMANTE-LOPEZ, Leonardo Alfonso; CECCONELLO, Ivan; NAHAS, Sergio CarlosFactors associated with increased intra-abdominal pressure such as chronic cough, morbid obesity, and constipation may be related to pelvic floor dysfunction. In this study, we compared anorectal manometry values and clinical data of class II and III morbidly obese patients referred to bariatric surgery with that of non-obese patients. We performed a case-matched study between obese patients referred to bariatric surgery and non-obese patients without anorectal complaints. The groups were matched by age and gender. Men and nulliparous women with no history of abdominal or anorectal surgery were included in the study. Anorectal manometry was performed by the stationary technique, and clinical evaluation was based on validated questionnaires. Mean age was 44.8 +/- 12.5 years (mean +/- SD) in the obese group and 44.1 +/- 11.8 years in the non-obese group (p = 0.829). In the obese group, 65.4% of patients had some degree of fecal incontinence. Mean squeeze pressure was significantly lower in obese than in non-obese patients (155.6 +/- 64.1 vs. 210.1 +/- 75.9 mmHg, p = 0.004), and there was no significant difference regarding mean rest pressure in obese patients compared to non-obese ones (63.7 +/- 23.1 vs. 74.1 +/- 21.8 mmHg, p = 0.051). There were no significant differences in anorectal manometry values between continent and incontinent obese patients. The prevalence of fecal incontinence among obese patients was high regardless of age, gender, and body mass index. Anal squeeze pressure was significantly lower in obese patients compared to non-obese controls.
- Efficacy of 3-Dimensional Endorectal Ultrasound for Staging Early Extraperitoneal Rectal Neoplasms(2017) PINTO, Rodrigo Ambar; CORREA NETO, Isaac Jose Felippe; NAHAS, Sergio Carlos; NAHAS, Caio Sergio Rizkalah; MARQUES, Carlos Frederico Sparapan; RIBEIRO JUNIOR, Ulysses; KAWAGUTI, Fabio Shiguehissa; CECCONELLO, IvanBACKGROUND: Adequate oncologic staging of rectal neoplasia is important for treatment and prognostic evaluation of the disease. Diagnostic methods such as endorectal ultrasound can assess rectal wall invasion and lymph node involvement. OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to correlate findings of 3-dimensional endorectal ultrasound and pathologic diagnosis of extraperitoneal rectal tumors with regard to depth of rectal wall invasion, lymph node involvement, percentage of rectal circumference involvement, and tumor extension. DESIGN: Consecutive patients with extraperitoneal rectal tumors were prospectively assessed by 3-dimensional endorectal ultrasound blind to other staging methods and pathologic diagnosis. PATIENTS: Patients who underwent endorectal ultrasound followed by surgery were included in the study. SETTINGS: The study was conducted at a single academic institution. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive values, area under curve, and. coefficient between 3-dimensional endorectal ultrasound and pathologic diagnosis were determined. Intraclass correlation coefficient was calculated for tumor extension and percentage of rectal wall involvement. RESULTS: Forty-four patients (27 women; mean age = 63.5 years) were evaluated between September 2010 and June 2014. Most lesions were malignant (72.7%). For depth of submucosal invasion, 3-dimensional endorectal ultrasound showed sensitivity of 77.3%, specificity of 86.4%, positive predictive value of 85.0%, a negative predictive value of 79.2%, and an area under curve of 0.82. The weighted. coefficient for depth of rectal wall invasion staging was 0.67, and there was no agreement between 3-dimensional endorectal ultrasound and pathologic diagnosis for lymph node involvement (kappa = -0.164). Intraclass correlation coefficient for lesion extension and percentage of rectal circumference involvement were 0.45 and 0.66. A better correlation between 3-dimensional endorectal ultrasound and pathologic diagnosis was observed in tumors <5 cm and with <50% of rectal wall involvement. LIMITATIONS: The relatively small sample size of patients with early rectal lesions referred directly for surgery could represent a potential selection bias. CONCLUSIONS: Three-dimensional endorectal ultrasound was effective for determining rectal wall invasion and lesion extension in tumors <5 cm and with <50% of rectal wall invasion but was limited for detecting lymph node involvement in early rectal lesions.
- Diagnosis and treatment of constipation: a clinical update based on the Rome IV criteria(2018) SOBRADO, Carlos Walter; CORRêA NETO, Isaac José Felippe; PINTO, Rodrigo Ambar; SOBRADO, Lucas Faraco; NAHAS, Sergio Carlos; CECCONELLO, IvanABSTRACT The aim of this study was to evaluate the published professional association guidelines regarding the current diagnosis and treatment of functional intestinal constipation in adults and to compare those guidelines with the authors' experience to standardize actions that aid clinical reasoning and decision-making for medical professionals. A literature search was conducted in the Medline/PubMed, Scielo, EMBASE and Cochrane online databases using the following terms: chronic constipation, diagnosis, management of chronic constipation, Roma IV and surgical treatment. Conclusively, chronic intestinal constipation is a common condition in adults and occurs most frequently in the elderly and in women. Establishing a precise diagnosis of the physiopathology of functional chronic constipation is complex and requires many functional tests in refractory cases. An understanding of intestinal motility and the defecatory process is critical for the appropriate management of chronic functional intestinal constipation, with surgery reserved for cases in which pharmacologic intervention has failed. The information contained in this review article is subject to the critical evaluation of the medical specialist responsible for determining the action plan to be followed within the context of the conditions and clinical status of each individual patient.
- ANORECTAL MANOMETRY STANDARD OF A BRAZILIAN POPULATION AT PRODUCTIVE AGE WITHOUT PELVIC FLOOR DISORDERS: A PROSPECTIVE VOLUNTEERED STUDY(2021) PINTO, Rodrigo Ambar; CORREA-NETO, Isaac Jose Felippe; BUSTAMANTE-LOPEZ, Leonardo Alfonso; NAHAS, Caio Sergio R.; MARQUES, Carlos Frederico S.; SOBRADO-JUNIOR, Carlos Walter; CECCONELLO, Ivan; NAHAS, Sergio CarlosBackground: Due to the lack of normal standards of anorectal manometry in Brazil, data used are subject to normality patterns described at different nationalities. Aim: To determine the values and range of the parameters evaluated at anorectal manometry in people, at productive age, without pelvic floor disorders comparing the parameters obtained between male and female. Methods: Prospective analysis of clinical data, such as gender, age, race, body mass index (BMI) and anorectal manometry, of volunteers from a Brazilian university reference in pelvic floor disorders. Results: Forty patients were included, with a mean age of 45.5 years in males and 37.2 females (p=0.43). According to male and female, respectively in mmHg, resting pressures were similar (78.28 vs. 63.51, p=0.40); squeeze pressures (153.89 vs. 79.78, p=0.007) and total squeeze pressures (231.27 vs. 145.63, p=0.002). Men presented significantly higher values of anorectal squeeze pressures, as well as the average length of the functional anal canal (2.85 cm in male vs. 2.45 cm in female, p=0.003). Conclusions: Normal sphincter pressure levels in Brazilians differ from those used until now as normal literature standards. Male gender has higher external anal sphincter tonus as compared to female, in addition a greater extension of the functional anal canal
