NCT04398641 · Status: UNKNOWN · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 300

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Several studies show a significant drop in pain scores, improved fertility outcomes and amelioration of impaired sexual functioning in women following surgical resection of colorectal endometriosis. However, intermediate and long-term bowel dysfunction may occur as a consequence of radical surgery with typical symptoms such as constipation, feeling of incomplete evacuation, clustering of stools and urgency. This is described as low anterior resection syndrome (LARS).

The primary aim of this study is the prospective comparison of two surgical approaches for full thickness excision, i.e. transanal disc excision (TADE) and nerve-vessel sparing limited segmental resection (NVSSR), regarding gastrointestinal functional outcomes using the LARS / Gastrointestinal Quality of Life Index (GIQLI) by Eypasch questionnaires.
