Evidence identifying predictors of meaningful complications, particularly from resource-limited settings, is limited.<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>AIM<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>To identify risk factors associated with Clavien-Dindo grade II and above complications following stoma reversal surgery.<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>METHODS<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>This prospective analytical study was conducted at a tertiary care center between February 2024 and June 2025. Adult patients undergoing elective stoma reversal were included and followed for 30 days postoperatively. Demographic, clinical, and operative variables-including age, etiology, type of index surgery, timing of reversal, type of anastomosis, and anastomosis time-were analyzed. Postoperative complications were graded using the Clavien-Dindo classification. Secondary outcomes included postoperative ileus and length of hospital stay.<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>RESULTS<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>Clinically significant complications were observed in a substantial proportion of patients. Advanced age and longer anastomosis time were significantly associated with Clavien-Dindo grade \u2265 II complications, postoperative ileus, and prolonged hospital stay. In contrast, type of stoma and anastomotic technique were not independent predictors of high-grade complications.<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>CONCLUSION<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>Stoma reversal carries a measurable risk of morbidity and should not be regarded as a minor procedure. Patient-related factors and operative complexity play a greater role in determining outcomes than technical variations alone. Careful patient selection, preoperative optimization, and strategies to minimize anastomosis time are essential to improve postoperative outcomes.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.4292\/wjgpt.v17.i2.120325","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,5,27]],"date-time":"2026-05-27T01:48:16Z","timestamp":1779846496000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Predictors of clinically significant complications after stoma reversal: A prospective analytical study"],"prefix":"10.4292","volume":"17","author":[{"given":"Rohit","family":"Sangwan","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Himanshu","family":"Agrawal","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Nitin","family":"Agarwal","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Haleema","family":"Ather","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Peeyush","family":"Kumar","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Nikhil","family":"Gupta","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"2060","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,6,5]]},"reference":[{"key":"B1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/codi.16118"},{"key":"B2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/s12245-022-00421-9"},{"key":"B3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.surg.2022.06.016"},{"key":"B4","unstructured":"Chaudhary P, Nabi I, Ranjan G, Tiwari AK, Kumar S, Kapur A, Arora MP.
