Clinical Trial: Comparing Hartmann's Procedure and Primary Resection with Anastomosis in Hinchey III-IV Diverticulitis: Focus on Ostomy Closure and Long-Term Outcomes

U.S., Jan. 28 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT06794905) titled 'Comparing Hartmann's Procedure and Primary Resection with Anastomosis in Hinchey III-IV Diverticulitis: Focus on Ostomy Closure and Long-Term Outcomes' on Jan. 21.

Brief Summary: Brief Summary

This multicenter study compares the effectiveness of primary anastomosis with diverting loop ileostomy to Hartmann's procedure for managing perforated sigmoid diverticulitis in stable patients. The findings demonstrate that primary anastomosis with diverting loop ileostomy offers superior long-term outcomes, including higher stoma reversal rates (92% versus 58%), shorter time to closure, and fewer parastomal hernias, contributing to improved ...
