Résumé
Clinical experience shows complaints similar to LARS not only after rectal surgery, but even after other types of colorectal surgery. Our aim was to investigate the occurrence of LARS after several types of colorectal surgery and its impact on quality of life. We included adult patients who underwent colorectal surgery at our centre from January 2016 until March 2019, regardless of indication. A questionnaire was sent evaluating LARS and quality of life. The questionnaire was answered by 119 patients. We noticed highest LARS-score after rectum surgery (26.1), but also surprisingly higher LARS-score after right-sided colectomy (21.0) compared to left-sided colectomy (16.4). We report lowest quality of life after rectal surgery, but higher quality of life in left colectomy compared to right colectomy. LARS-score did not significantly correlate with type of procedure; however, higher LARS-scores were noted after right-sided colectomy compared to left-sided colectomy with similar impact on quality of life. We suggest CORS (colorectal resection syndrome) as a more suiting conceptual name instead of LARS to describe functional bowel complaints after colorectal surgery.
