Computed tomography-guided endoscopic needle knife therapy for ileal pouch sinus
نویسندگان
چکیده
Ileal pouch-anal anastomosis surgery can be complicated by anastomotic leaks, leading to the formation of abscess and chronic sinus that have been routinely managed by a surgical approach. We developed the endoscopic needle knife sinusotomy (NKSi) technique, which has become a valid alternative. The basic principle of endoscopic NKSi is dissection and drainage of the sinus through its orifice internally into the lumen of pouch body. The success of NKSi requires an access to the sinus from the pouch side. One of the most challenging situations for NKSi is a closed orifice of the sinus, which leaves an isolated chronic abscess cavity. Here we report a case of complicated presacral sinus with a closed orifice that was not amenable to NKSi, necessitating a CT-guided guide wire placement and subsequent NKSi.

Endoscopic Fistulotomy Heals a Y-Shaped Entero-Entero-Cutaneous Fistula
Patients may develop fistulas due to Crohn's disease or as a postoperative complication after restorative proctocolectomy with ileal pouch anal anastomosis. Unfortunately, the treatment of fistulas can be challenging. The current standard of care may include medical therapy and/or surgical intervention. However, endoscopic treatment for postoperative pouch complications has emerged as a valid a...

Superior mesenteric artery syndrome (SMAS) after a surgical operation is very rare. We experienced an extremely rare case of ileal pouch-anal anastomosis with subsequent development of SMAS requiring duodenojejunostomy. A 74-year-old Asian woman underwent total colectomy, ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (J-pouch), covering ileostomy, splenectomy, and distal pancreatectomy for treatment of descendi...
