Bowel function is significantly affected after rectal surgery. While sphincter-preserving techniques aim to maintain anal continence, many patients experience a spectrum of bowel dysfunction, collectively known as Low Anterior Resection Syndrome (LARS). LARS includes symptoms such as incontinence, constipation, urgency, and stool clustering, which can severely impact a patient’s quality of life. The prevalence of LARS is alarmingly high, affecting a majority of patients, and symptoms can persist for years after surgical treatment.

  • Gastroenterologists

Pancreatic exocrine insufficiency (PEI) is a common yet frequently under-recognised cause of maldigestion, malabsorption, and malnutrition. Although traditionally associated with primary pancreatic disorders such as chronic pancreatitis, cystic fibrosis, pancreatic cancer, or pancreatic surgery, it is now evident that PEI also occurs in a wide range of extra-pancreatic conditions and clinical settings. Advances in diagnostic testing and expanding clinical awareness have improved detection; however, significant misconceptions persist regarding when to suspect PEI; how to interpret diagnostic tests; and how to initiate, optimise, and monitor pancreatic enzyme replacement therapy (PERT). In everyday practice, these errors may lead to delayed diagnosis, inappropriate treatment, persistent symptoms, and preventable nutritional deficiencies. This “Mistakes in…” article highlights common pitfalls in the diagnosis and management of PEI, focusing on inappropriate reliance on faecal elastase testing, failure to recognise secondary causes, undertreatment with PERT, and inadequate nutritional assessment. By addressing these frequent mistakes, we aim to promote a more structured, patient-centred, and evidence-informed approach to PEI that improves clinical outcomes and quality of life.

Proctologic disorders are a widespread problem—their high incidence means that many different healthcare professionals (e.g. gastroenterologists, surgeons, dermatologists, nurses, young residents, etc.) will be confronted by patients complaining about a proctologic disease.

This course by European Society of Coloproctology (ESCP) experts Harald Rosen, Álvaro García-Granero, Eloy Espín and David Zimmerman provides the most recent state-of-the-art information on the anatomy of the pelvic floor and the common proctologic disorders of anal fissure and anal abscess and fistula.

Learning objectives

  • To understand how to reach a conclusive diagnosis of GORD
  • To know how to reach a conclusive diagnosis of no GORD
  • To understand how to deal with an inconclusive diagnosis

Target audience

This course is suitable for gastroenterologists and surgeons in training, but is also appropriate for other physicians, as well as nurses, biotechnicians and medical students who have an interest in coloproctology.
