Use of inflammatory markers in the early detection of infectious complications after laparoscopic colorectal cancer surgery with the ERAS protocol.

Abstract: IntroductionThanks to laparoscopy and enhanced recovery protocols (ERAS) it is possible to shorten hospitalization. Therefore, it seems reasonable to search for new early markers of infectious complications in order to select patients who are prone to development of complications.AimTo assess the usefulness of serum levels of C-reactive protein, interleukin-6 and procalcitonin as early indicators of infectious complications in patients after laparoscopic colorectal surgery with ERAS.Material and methodsThe pro… Show more

“…It was caused by a lower rate of complications in the IA group. The leak rate in this group corresponds with the leak rate reported by other Polish group [15]. However, in the EA group we noted a high incidence of complication class III, especially anastomosis leak.…”

“…This suggests that certain relevant clinical parameters may not be captured by previously defined DC. Some studies support the analysis of inflammatory markers to support discharge decisionmaking after colorectal surgery [22]. The inclusion of such markers as additional criteria for hospital discharge should be explored in future research.…”

“…Significantly higher CRP levels were found after colorectal surgery as early as POD 1 in patients who later developed intra-abdominal infection, which raises doubts regarding opinions that anastomotic leakage occurs near POD 7 [20,22,24]. A stronger inflammatory response may be both the consequence and the cause of intra-abdominal infection (impaired healing or reflecting ongoing tissue hypoxia leading to anastomotic leakage) [21,25].…”
