An observational study in Right Colectomy, sponsored by Centre Hospitalier Departemental Vendee. Completed at 12 sites in France. Open to participants aged 18 Years and older. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2025-12-04.

Anastomotic leakage is the major postoperative complication in right colectomy. Evaluation of calcification on coeliac trunk and mesenteric arteries on the preoperative CT scan could allow the identification of patient at-risk of postoperative complications.
A monocentric retrospective study performed at CHD Vendée concluded than a calcification score over or equal to 3 was associated with a higher risk of developping an anastomotic leakage.
The aim of this prospective multicentric study is to validate a calcification score based on preoperative CT scan analysis and focussing at coeliac trunk and mesenteric arteries.This study will involve patients operated on with a scheduled right colectomy.
91 studies on the registry are indexed under Calcinosis; 19 are open to participants now.
This study's enrollment of 615 is above the median of 180 across 31 observational studies indexed under Calcinosis.

Exclusion Criteria:
Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.
Anti-inflammatory medicines such as prednisone, prednisolone and dexamethasone — not the anabolic steroids used for muscle.
Studies differ in what they allow: check which steroid medicines, routes (tablets, injections, creams, inhalers, eye drops) and doses this study accepts.

Total calcification score associated with the occurrence of anastomotic leakage
Sum of the calcification scores of the following 4 segments (≥3) associated with the occurrence of anastomotic leakage within 6 weeks postoperatively. 4 segments: * Ostium of celiac artery * Ostium of superior mesenteric artery * first segment of superior mesenteric artery * distal segment of superior mesenteric artery Each segment will be assigned a score between 0 and 2. Total score range : 0-8
Time frame: 6 weeks after surgery

Ran from Sep 2019 to primary completion in Nov 2025, 73 months.
Of 14 observational studies under Calcinosis, half reached primary completion within 38 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 20 and three quarters within 73. This study's 73 months is above that.
