INTRODUCTION: Conventionally the split appendix has been used to address the need for dual conduits such as the Mitrofanoff and the ACE, however limited by its length. We present a video demonstration of an alternate solution.
MATERIAL AND METHODS: Size-12 Nelaton catheter introduced via appendicular stump and skirted along the lateral wall of the caecum. Ethicon Endopath 35 mm Linear Stapler was used to create a caecal tube of about 3 cm based on the appendicular stump.
RESULTS: From September 2019-January 2023, 6-patients, aged 5-18 years with a diagnoses of 4-spinal dysraphisms, 1-cloacal anomaly, and 1-urogenital sinus were included.
FOLLOW UP: 5-45 months. Two patients had ACE site infection which resolved with antibiotics. One developed a stomal granuloma treated effectively with silver nitrate. All are clean with no stomal leaks and experience easy intubation.
DISCUSSION: Alternatives to the split appendix include the Monti ACE, and Caecostomy tube/caecal flap when limited by appendicular length. The technique described is easy and quick however care must be taken to keep away from the ileo-caecal junction and to keep the tube length as short as possible or needed to preserve vascularity.
CONCLUSIONS: The stapled caecal tube ACE is easy, quick, and safe especially when limited by appendicular length.
