Study Arms (2)

Control Group

NO INTERVENTION

no mesh was used for end colostomy fashions

Mesh Group

EXPERIMENTAL

Mesh of Bio A was used for end colostomy fashions

Device: Mesh Group

Interventions

All MG patients underwent the procedure with ante rectus positioned prophylactic mesh according to the following standardized technique. A BIO-A circular-shaped mesh measuring 8X10 cm in diameter is prepared with an internal 2 cm hole to let the bowel pass. An at least 8x8 cm space is created between the anterior rectus sheath and the rectus abdominis muscle and, then, the mesh is positioned. The bowel is passed through the rectus muscle via the circular incision in the middle of the mesh. Single absorbable monofilament sutures anchored the mesh laterally in the ante rectus pocket, while medially the mesh is fixed with four stitches to the colon and to both the anterior rectal sheet. The stoma is attached to the skin similarly to CG patients.

Masking Details
Patients were randomized in two groups (Control Group, without mesh; Mesh Group, receiving Bio-A mesh supported colostomy in an ante rectus fashion). Participants were randomly allocated to one of the two groups using computer-generated permuted blocks (www.randomization.com), just before colostomy fashion. For each patient, an identification number was generated. This latter was utilized during all the follow-up period guarantying the blinding process. Patients, care providers, staff collecting data and those assessing the endpoints, in fact, we're all blinded to group allocation. Because the blinding of the operating surgeons was not feasible, they were not involved in the

Model Details: This study is a Binary outcome superiority trial. The sample size was calculated by Sealed Envelope Ltd. 2012. The calculation was based on the evaluation of PH rate at 3, 6, 12 and 24 months postoperatively in patients undergoing colostomy. In literature same trials reported a decrease in the incidence of PH in the mesh groups versus suture alone (xx). Therefore, we hypothesized a decrease of PH between Control and Mesh group of 25% (from 35 % to 10%). It was estimated that 49 subjects per group would be required to detect an absolute improvement of 25% (35% vs 10%) in the primary outcome between the two groups, with two-tailed α of 0.05 (2-sided 5% significance level) and a power of 80%. Data analysis was conducted according to an intention-to-treat approach. Loss to follow-up was estimated in about 10% of included patients. Therefore, a total of 110 patients (55 for each group) were included in the study.
