    Abstract Background: Appendectomy may affect the clinical course of Crohn's disease (CD), but rigorous evidence is sparse and contradicting. The aim of this study was to examine the association between appendectomy and the clinical course of CD.
    Methods: All patients diagnosed with CD in Denmark in the period from 1977 to 2017 were identified from the Danish National Patient Registry. Patients with appendectomy were matched with up to 10 comparators with CD and no appendectomy; and rates of CD-related hospital admissions were compared between CD patients with and without appendectomy using incidence rate ratios (IRRs). We used stratified Cox regression analysis to calculate adjusted hazard ratios (aHRs) of initiating treatment with biologics or undergoing intestinal resections.
    Results: In all, 21 189 CD patients (1936 with appendectomy and 19 253 without) were identified and followed for a median of 13.6 years. Crohn's disease patients who had undergone appendectomy experienced a lower rate of CD-related hospital admissions (appendectomy before CD: IRR = 0.83; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.81-0.85; appendectomy after CD: IRR = 0.85; 95% CI, 0.81-0.88) compared with CD patients without appendectomy. For patients with appendectomy before CD diagnosis, the rate of initiating biologics was lower compared with CD patients with no appendectomy (aHR1-<5 years = 0.61; 95% CI, 0.46-0.81; aHR5-<10 years 0.47; 95% CI, 0.33-0.66; aHR10-20 years = 0.61; 95% CI, 0.47-0.79), as was the risk of undergoing colorectal resections (aHR1-<5 years = 0.94; 95% CI, 0.77-1.15; aHR5-<10 years 0.63; 95% CI, 0.47-0.85; aHR10-20 years = 0.75; 95% CI, 0.54-1.04). Rates of small bowel resections were comparable for CD patients with or without appendectomy prior to CD. Appendectomy performed after CD did not influence the rate of initiating treatment with biologics or undergoing intestinal resections.
    Conclusion: The clinical course of CD is milder for those who have previously undergone appendectomy.

    Abstract Aim: Sacral neuromodulation (SNM) is approved for the treatment of faecal incontinence (FI) in a two-stage technique. With standardized implantation, approximately 90% of patients undergo successful Stage I operation and proceed to a permanent implant (Stage II). The aim of this work was to explore the feasibility of SNM as a one-stage procedure and report the 24-week efficacy.
    Method: This study included patients diagnosed with idiopathic FI or FI due to an external anal sphincter defect ≤160° and one or more episodes of FI per week despite maximal conservative therapy. Patients were offered a one-stage procedure if a motor response of the external anal sphincter was achieved in three or more poles with at least one at ≤1.5 mA at lead placement. Patients were followed for 24 weeks. Their evaluation included the Wexner/St Mark's Incontinence Score, Faecal Incontinence Quality of Life score (FIQoL), a visual analogue scale (VAS) for assessing patient satisfaction and a bowel habit diary.
    Results: Seventy-three patients with a median age of 60 years (interquartile range 50-69 years) completed this prospective study. Episodes of FI were significantly reduced at the 24-week follow-up, from 13 (8-23) at baseline to 2 (0-5) (p-value = 0002). A ≥50% reduction in the number of FI episodes was achieved in 92% of participants. The Wexner score improved significantly from 16 (14-17) at baseline to 9 (5-13) (p-value < 0.001), and the St Mark's score improved significantly from 18 (16-20) to 11 (7-16) (p-value < 0.001). All domains in the FIQoL score and VAS for patient satisfaction improved significantly following the one-stage procedure.
    Conclusion: A one-stage implantation procedure is feasible in selected patients with FI, significantly improving continence, quality of life and patient satisfaction after 24 weeks of follow-up.

    Abstract Background: The aim of this study was to examine the association between appendectomy and advanced colorectal neoplasia (aCRN) in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).
    Methods: Inflammatory bowel disease patients diagnosed in Denmark in the period 1977 to 2017 were identified from the Danish National Patient Registry. Inflammatory bowel disease patients who underwent appendectomy were matched with up to 10 IBD patients without appendectomy and followed until aCRN, death, or emigration. Absolute risks of aCRN were calculated, treating death and bowel resections as competing risks. Stratified Cox regression was used to calculate adjusted hazard ratios (aHRs) of aCRN, comparing IBD patients with appendectomy to IBD patients without appendectomy.
    Results: We identified 3789 IBD patients with appendectomy and 37 676 IBD patients without appendectomy. A total of 573 patients (1.4%) developed aCRN, with an absolute risk of aCRN at 20 years of 4.9% (95% confidence interval [CI], 2.9%-7.7%) for ulcerative colitis (UC) patients with appendectomy after UC diagnosis compared with 2.8% (95% CI, 2.3%-3.3%) for UC patients without appendectomy. Appendectomy after UC was associated with an increased rate of aCRN 5 to 10 years (aHR, 2.5; 95% CI, 1.1-5.5) and 10 to 20 years after appendectomy (aHR, 2.3; 95% CI, 1.0-5.5). Appendectomy prior to UC diagnosis was not associated with an increased rate of aCRN, and Crohn's disease was not associated with the rate of aCRN, regardless of timing or histological diagnosis of the appendix specimen.
    Conclusions: Although appendectomy may have a positive effect on the clinical course of UC, our study suggests that this may come at the expense of a higher risk of aCRN.

    Abstract Aim: A laparoscopic approach to total colectomy (TC) for inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is being increasingly used, but data on its comparative benefits over open TC are conflicting. The aim of this study was to examine 90-day outcomes following laparoscopic and open TC for IBD in a nationwide cohort after the introduction of laparoscopy.
    Method: IBD patients undergoing TC in Denmark from 2005 to 2017 were identified from the Danish National Patient Registry. We used Kaplan-Meier methodology to estimate mortality and Cox regression analysis to estimate adjusted mortality rate ratios (aMRRs) and adjusted hazard ratios (aHRs) of reoperation, readmission and intensive care unit (ICU) transfer, comparing patients undergoing laparoscopic versus open TC.
    Results: We identified 1095 patients undergoing laparoscopic TC and 1523 patients undergoing open TC. Following emergency TC, 90-day mortality was 2.8% (1.6%-4.9%) after laparoscopic TC and 9.1% (7.0%-11.8%) after open TC. Ninety-day mortality was 0.9% (0.3%-2.5%) after laparoscopic TC and 2.6% (1.5%-4.3%) after open elective TC. The aMRRs associated with laparoscopic TC were 0.45 (95% CI 0.25-0.80) in emergency cases and 0.29 (95% CI 0.10-0.86) in elective cases. Risks of readmission were comparable following laparoscopic versus open TC, both in emergency [aHR = 0.93 (95% CI 0.76-1.15)] and elective [aHR = 0.83 (95% CI 0.68-1.02)] cases, while risks of ICU transfer and reoperation were lower following laparoscopic TC, both in emergency cases [aHR = 0.53 (95% CI 0.35-0.82) and aHR = 0.26 (95% CI 0.15-0.47)] and elective [aHR = 0.58 (95% CI 0.35-0.95) and aHR = 0.37 (95% CI 0.21-0.66)] cases.
    Conclusion: The introduction of laparoscopic TC for IBD in Denmark was not associated with increased mortality or morbidity. In fact, laparoscopic TC for IBD may be associated with lower short-term mortality and morbidity compared with open TC.

    Abstract Background: MRI interpretation and accurate radiological staging are crucial to the important treatment decisions and a consequent successful patient outcome in rectal cancer.
    Aims: To investigate the effect of intensive training on rectal cancer MRI staging performance of radiologists and the impact of different course elements on learning outcomes.
    Methods: In this prospective intervention study, 17 radiology specialists and 1 radiology registrar participated in a training programme including a 6-hour imaging workshop, a 3-hour session of individual feedback and independent MRI readings of primary rectal cancer cases. Their rectal MRI interpretive performance was evaluated through repeated readings of 30 training cases before and after each course element and a time interval with no educational intervention. A proforma template for MRI staging of primary rectal cancer was used and the results were compared with a reference standard of an expert panel. Participants repeatedly reported on confidence scores and self-assessed learning outcome. Outcomes were analysed using mixed-effects models.
    Results: At baseline the quality of rectal MRI assessment varied significantly, with a higher interpretive performance among participants with shorter radiological experience (10.2 years vs 19.9 years, p=0.02). The ability to perform correct treatment allocation improved from 72% to 82% (adjusted OR=2.36, 95% CI 1.64 to 3.39). The improvement was largely driven by the participants with lower performance at baseline and by prevention of overstaging. Individual feedback had a significant impact on the improved interpretive performance (adjusted OR=1.82, 95% CI 1.27 to 2.63), whereas no significant change was seen after workshop or case readings only. Confidence scores increased significantly during training.
    Conclusions: Targeted and individualised training improves the rectal cancer MRI interpretive performance essential to successful patient treatment, especially among radiology specialists with lower performance at baseline.
