title: [Indications and results of mucosal proctectomy with colo-anal anastomosis in villous disease of the rectum].
abstract: The objective of this study was to define the indication for proctectomy and colo-anal anastomosis in large rectal villous adenomas. The study population consisted of 20 patients (12 men and 8 women; mean age 63.6) who underwent rectal excision and colo-anal anastomosis from 1990 to 1997. The average size of tumors was 59.8 mm; 18 tumors were located in the lower third of the rectal ampulla; 8 patients had prior treatment (surgical or medical) before proctectomy. There were 13 straight colo-anal anastomoses and 7 constructed with colonic J pouch. Eighty percent of the anastomoses were defunctioned by a temporary stoma. The overall morbidity included one case of pelvic sepsis, two anastomotic strictures and one colonic trans-anal prolapse. One patient experienced persistent mild fecal incontinence and two others developed urogenital. The mean hospital stay was 14.4 days and 8.5 days for stoma closure. 8 tumors contained malignancy: 3 Tis, 4 T1 and 1 T2. In our opinion the extension, natural history or potential of occult malignancy of large rectal villous adenomas may requires rectal excision with colo-anal anastomosis with low morbidity and good functional results.
