The effect of neo-rectal wall properties on functional outcome after colonic J-pouch-anal anastomosis

Comparison of functional outcome of colonic J-pouch and latero-terminal anastomosis in low anterior resection for rectal cancer.

INTRODUCTION Functional results after low anterior resection for rectal cancer are an issue of increasing attention among colorectal surgeons and others interested in this subject. The consensus on ideal reconstruction type has not been achieved to date, although the number of papers on this subject has been published in recent years. OBJECTIVE We conducted a prospective, parallel group study...

Comparison of Colonic J-pouch and Straight Coloanal anastomosis after Low Anterior Resection

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effect of colonic J-pouch coloanal anastomosis after low anterior resection for mid or low rectal cancer on improving defecation and anorectal physiology. METHODS To make a meta-analysis, prospective randomized controlled trial of with or without colonic J-pouch after low anterior resection for mid or low rectal cancer was conducted. The key words included rectal can...

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

OBJECTIVE Reconstructive proctocolectomy with ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (IPAA) is the surgical treatment of ulcerative colitis (UC) and familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP). The aim of our study was to evaluate the functional results of this procedure and to assess its impact upon patient quality of life (QoL). METHODS We evaluated QoL and functional results in patients who had undergone I...

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...
