Function Outcome of Double-Stapled and Transanal Ileal Pouch-Anal Anastomosis after Proctocolectomy.

Functional outcome and quality of life after restorative proctocolectomy and ileal pouch-anal anastomosis.

Restorative proctocolectomy with ileal pouch-anal anastomosis is the surgical treatment of choice for patients with medically refractory ulcerative colitis, ulcerative colitis with dysplasia or cancer, or familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP). The aim of this study is to report our 6-year experience of restorative proctocolectomy and IPAA at a tertiary referral centre. Chart review was performed...

Long-term functional outcome and quality of life after proctocolectomy ileal pouch-anal anastomosis for colitis

Laparoscopic proctocolectomy with ileal j-pouch anal anastomosis in children.

BACKGROUND/AIMS We aimed to evaluate postoperative fecal incontinence scales of children who underwent laparoscopic proctocolectomy and ileal J-pouch anastomosis for familial adenomateous polyposis (FAP) and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). MATERIALS AND METHODS Fecal incontinence scores were collected at 3 months post-surgery. A retrospective chart review was also performed to obtain the de...

Sexual function after failed ileal pouch-anal anastomosis.

BACKGROUND AND AIMS Failure of ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (IPAA) occurs in around 10% of the patients. Compared to patients with functioning pouches, health related quality of life is deteriorated after failure. Sexual function in patients with pouch failure is however poorly studied. The aim was to study sexual function in patients with pelvic pouch failure; patients with functioning pouches...

Outcome of total proctocolectomy with ileal pouch-anal anastomosis for ulcerative colitis

PURPOSE We evaluated the risk factors for late complications and functional outcome after total proctocolectomy (TPC) with ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (IPAA) for ulcerative colitis (UC). METHODS Pre- and postoperative clinical status and follow-up data were obtained for 55 patients who underwent TPC with IPAA between 1999 and 2010. The median follow-up duration was 4.17 years. Late complicat...
