About this study

Rationale: Anastomotic leakage (AL) is a severe complication of colon surgery, with an incidence of 2.7-11.9%. It is associated with long-term increased mortality, reduced quality of life, and high healthcare costs due to reoperations and prolonged hospitalization. Among colon cancer patients, 5-year survival rates are 70% for those with AL compared to 81% for those without. A retrospective case-control study identified a \>50% stenosis of the Superior Mesenteric Artery (SMA) as a significant risk factor, increasing AL odds by six times (OR: 5.9, 95% CI: 2.7-12.6, p \< .001). Primary objective: The ALPrES2MA study aims to evaluate whether preventive endovascular stenting of a \>50% stenosed SMA origin reduces the risk of AL following colon surgery. Secondary objectives: Classification of severity of AL, incidence of delayed AL (\>90 days), Mesenteric Artery Calcification Score (MACS), surgical complications, hospital (re)admissions, Quality of life (including health related quality of life), healthcare and societal costs, cost-effectiveness (expressed as incremental costs per quality-adjusted life year gained), and budget impact. Additionally, the added value of quantitative fluorescence angiography (qFA) in predicting AL during surgery, in hospitals with suitable equipment and experience, will be explored. This will enhance surgeons' capabilities in preventing AL. Study design: Nationwide multicentre randomized controlled trail with a 1:1 fashion Study population: Pa…
