Purpose: Obstructive colitis (OC) is a risk factor of anastomotic leakage in colorectal cancer resection. We aimed to clarify the relationship between the severity of OC and clinicopathological findings and to detect predictive factors of OC. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed 43 cases of colectomy after self-expandable metallic stent placement for left-sided colorectal cancer. Preoperative diagnosis of OC was made by multiple modalities (initial computed tomography (CT), presurgical CT, and colonoscopy). We classified OC macroscopically in resected specimens into five groups (Grade 0: none, 1: mild [mild edema], 2: moderate [severe edema, redness, erosion], 3: severe [ulceration, bleeding], 4: very severe [necrosis, perforation]), and investigated the relationship between the preoperative assessment, surgical findings and the severity of OC. Results: OC of Grade 2 or more (53.5%) was significantly correlated with severe edema in initial CT. There was no significant correlation between OC and anastomosis rate. The creation of covering stoma was significantly higher in the Grade 2 or more OC group. No leakage was observed in either group. Conclusions: Initial CT may be most useful for prediction of OC. It is important to make a preoperative diagnosis of OC by combining multiple modalities, which enables to determine the appropriate location for resection, anastomosis, and construction of a covering stoma.
