Preoperative MELD-Na Score Predicts 30-day Post-operative Complications After Colorectal Resection for Malignancy

Introduction:Predicting possible complications in colon surgery is important in terms of reducing postoperative mortality and morbidity rates. Various scoring methods have been used to predict these complications. The MELD score was developed to predict mortality following Transjugular Intrahepatic...

description Introduction:Predicting possible complications in colon surgery is important in terms of reducing postoperative mortality and morbidity rates. Various scoring methods have been used to predict these complications. The MELD score was developed to predict mortality following Transjugular Intrahepatic Portosystemic Shunt (TIPS) placement in cirrhotic patients. This model was revised by adding Na data and used to predict complications in non-cirrhotic patients. We investigated the value of the MELD-Na score in predicting postoperative 30-day complications in patients undergoing colorectal resection for malignancy.Methods:Patients who underwent colorectal resection for malignant diseases were included in the study. Demographics and clinical outcomes were recorded. The MELD-Na scores of the patients were calculated within 48 h before the surgery. Patients were divided into 2 groups according to the status of development of any complication.Results:Age, gender, operative time, and length of stay was not statistically significant for developing complications. The MELD-Na score was significantly higher in patients with any complications. Also, MELD-NA score, stoma creation, and postoperative erythrocyte suspension replacement were found to be independent risk factors for developing complications in patients undergoing surgery for colon cancer.Conclusion:The MELD-Na score may predict the complications that may develop in the first 30 days postoperatively in patients undergoing colorectal resection for malignant diseases.
