Abstract
BACKGROUND Ileoanal pouch related fistulae (PRF) are a complication of restorative proctocolectomy often requiring repeated surgical interventions and with a high risk of long-term recurrence and pouch failure. AIMS To assess the incidence of PRF and to report on the outcomes of available surgical treatments. METHODS A PRISMA-compliant systematic literature search for articles reporting on PRF in patients with inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) or familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) from 1985 to 2020. RESULTS 34 studies comprising 770 patients with PRF after ileal-pouch anal anastomosis (IPAA) were included. Incidence of PRF was 1.5-12%. In IBD patients Crohn's Disease (CD) was responsible for one every four pouch-vaginal fistulae (PVF) (OR 24.7; p=0.001). The overall fistula recurrence was 49.4%; procedure-specific recurrence was: repeat IPAA (OR 42.1; GRADE +); transvaginal repair (OR 52.3; GRADE ++) and transanal ileal pouch advancement flap (OR 56.9; GRADE ++). The overall failure rate was 19%: pouch excision (OR 0.20; GRADE ++); persistence of diverting stoma (OR 0.13; GRADE +) and persistent fistula (OR 0.18; GRADE +). CONCLUSION PVFs are more frequent compared to other types of PRF and are often associated to CD; surgical treatment has a risk of 50% recurrence. Repeat IPAA is the best surgical approach with a 42.1% recurrence rate.

Abstract
Intestinal strictures are a common complication in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Symptoms due to intestinal strictures range from mild bloating and/or abdominal discomfort to complete bowel obstruction. Careful selection of available medical, endoscopic, or surgical therapies is critical for optimizing patient outcomes and is dependent on the effective characterization of the stricture. This article will focus on the diagnosis and classification of IBD strictures.

Incidence and Risk Factors of Cancer in the Anal Transitional Zone and Ileal Pouch following Surgery for Ulcerative Colitis and Familial Adenomatous Polyposis. Cancers (Basel) 2022; 14:cancers14030530. [PMID: 35158797 PMCID: PMC8833833 DOI: 10.3390/cancers14030530] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/28/2021] [Revised: 01/17/2022] [Accepted: 01/18/2022] [Indexed: 12/29/2022] Open
Abstract
Proctocolectomy with ileal pouch-anal anastomosis is the intervention of choice for ulcerative colitis and familial adenomatous polyposis requiring surgery. One of the long-term complications is pouch cancer, having a poor prognosis. The risk of high-grade dysplasia and cancer in the anal transitional zone and ileal pouch after 20 years is estimated to be 2 to 4.5% and 3 to 10% in ulcerative colitis and familial polyposis, respectively. The risk factors for ulcerative colitis are the presence of pre-operative dysplasia or cancer, disease duration > 10 years and severe villous atrophy. For familial polyposis, the risk factors are the number of pre-operative polyps > 1000, surgery with stapled anastomosis and the duration of follow-up. In the case of ulcerative colitis, a pouchoscopy should be performed annually if one of the following is present: dysplasia and cancer at surgery, primary sclerosing cholangitis, villous atrophy and active pouchitis (every 5 years without any of these factors). In the case of familial polyposis, endoscopy is recommended every year including chromoendoscopy. Even if anal transitional zone and ileal pouch cancers seldom occur following proctectomy for ulcerative colitis and familial adenomatous polyposis, the high mortality rate associated with this complication warrants endoscopic monitoring.

Abstract
Ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (IPAA) or "J"-pouch as it is commonly referred to, is the treatment of choice in patients with medically refractory ulcerative colitis. IPAA can have infectious, inflammatory, and mechanical complications. Currently, there are no Food and Drug Administration-approved medical therapies for these complications. Surgery that may be eventually required can have significant morbidities due to the complexity of IPAA. Endoscopy is fast emerging as a leading modality of treatment for some of these pouch complications. Endoscopy in adjunct with medical treatment can help manage the majority of pouch-related disorders and improve the outcome.

Abstract
Background When performing a restorative proctocolectomy (RPC) with an ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (IPAA), it is common practice to divide the ileocolic artery (ICA) if the patient has a tumor or dysplasia, or in order to gain sufficient length to secure a tension-free anastomosis. However, it is unclear whether there is an association between division of the ICA and the rate of postoperative complications. Methods We retrospectively analysed all patients with ulcerative colitis who underwent RPC and IPAA in our department between January 2010 and December 2016. These were divided in two groups, with regard to the ICA being preserved (PRE group) or divided (DIV group). Complications such as stenosis or leakage of the IPAA, perianal fistulas, abscess formation within the lesser pelvis and pouchitis were analysed and compared between both groups. Results We identified 130 patients meeting the study inclusion criteria, 49 patients in the PRE and 81 patients in the DIV group. No statistical significance was observed in IPAA leakages (p = 0.71), anastomotic strictures (p = 0.33), fistulas (p = 0.19) and pouchitis (p = 0.72). Abscess formation frequency was similar in both groups (p > 0.99). Moreover, short-term (p = 0.53) and long-term complications (p = 0.11) were similar in both groups. A higher conversion rate was observed in obese (p = 0.006) and male (p = 0.02) patients. Within the entire study population, fistulas and IPAA leakages were associated with a higher rate of anastomotic strictures (p = 0.008 and p = 0.02 respectively). Conclusion Our data suggest similar IPAA related complications after either division or preservation of the ICA. Further trials are required in order to examine the trends observed in this study.

Abstract
There are special considerations when treating anastomotic leak after restorative proctocolectomy and ileal pouch-anal anastomosis. The epidemiology, risk factors, anatomic considerations, diagnosis and management, as well as the short- and long-term consequences to the patient are unique to this patent population. Additionally, there are specific concerns such as "tip of the J" leaks, transanal management of anastomotic leak/presacral sinus, functional outcomes after leak, and considerations of redo pouch procedures.

Abstract
Surgeons universally dread gastrointestinal anastomotic leaks, yet the precise definition is not widely agreed on despite international consensus guidelines. Likewise, leaks are not uniformly reported which makes comparisons across studies flawed. Leak rates range from 1 to 3% for ileocolonic, 0.5 to 18% for colorectal, and 5 to 19% for coloanal anastomoses. The sequelae of an anastomotic leak vary but generally correlate with the need for a change in clinical management, from minimal changes to the need for reoperation. Short- and long-term outcomes can be life-altering or life-threatening. Temporary or permanent stomas may be necessary and low pelvic anastomotic leaks may affect bowel function. For cancer patients, leaks can delay treatment and negatively affect oncologic outcomes. In Crohn's patients, leaks are associated with higher recurrence rates. In essence, the lack of agreement on the definition of an anastomotic leak inhibits meaningful understand of its epidemiology, prevention, and treatment.

Abstract
Introduction Ileal pouch–anal anastomosis is the procedure of choice for re-establishing intestinal continuity for patients undergoing total proctocolectomy. Despite growing experience with this procedure, it is still associated with considerable morbidity rates. Presentation of case Herein, we report the case of a 14-year-old boy with familial adenomatous polyposis who underwent total proctocolectomy, ileal pouch–anal anastomosis, and diverting ileostomy. The patient developed early postoperative complications; on postoperative day 1, he developed bleeding from the pouch staple line, which was managed endoscopically. On postoperative day 15, he developed intestinal obstruction due to adhesions. One year after proctocolectomy, ileostomy closure was performed uneventfully. From postoperative day 3, the patient presented with obstructive signs such as abdominal distention, bloating, abdominal pain, and fever. Computed tomography identified diffuse intense intestinal distension with pouch dilatation. Digital rectal examination identified the pouch filled with liquid stool and no signs of anal canal anastomosis stenosis. The patient was considered to have pouch outlet obstruction and was successfully managed using bedside evacuation anoscopy. After 3 days, oral nutrition was re-established, and appropriate stool evacuation and fecal continence were achieved. Discussion Proctocolectomy with ileal pouch–anal anastomosis still carries a considerable complication rate. Proper identification of causative factors is mandatory for appropriate treatment. Pouch outlet obstruction can present as acute abdomen after diverting ileostomy closure. In this case, outlet obstruction was identified and treated by pouch evacuation, avoiding morbidity of a new surgical procedure. Conclusion We presented an unusual case of acute intestinal obstruction due to pouch outlet obstruction that was managed nonoperatively with bedside pouch evacuation. Proctocolectomy with ileal pouch-anal anastomosis is the main treatment for APC The procedure is technically demanding and carries considerable complications rate Intestinal obstruction is frequent early complication, mostly due to intestinal adhesions Pouch outlet obstruction can promote acute abdomen and can be managed conservatively

Abstract
Background and Aim Combined therapy with tacrolimus (TAC) and an anti‐tumor necrosis factorα (TNFα) antibody is used to induce remission in ulcerative colitis (UC) patients who have not responded to monotherapy with either drug. We evaluated the efficacy and safety of combined therapy, as well as the relapse rate. Methods Combined therapy was performed to induce remission in UC patients showing an inadequate response to monotherapy with TAC or an anti‐TNFα antibody. The following items were assessed retrospectively: (i) clinical characteristics, (ii) the remission induction rate, (iii) the relapse rate, and (iv) adverse events. Results Combined therapy induced remission in 7 of the 12 patients (58.3%). There were no significant differences in clinical characteristics between the patients with and without the successful induction of remission. However, the number of female patients tended to be higher in the remission group than in the nonremission group. The remission group also showed trends of a lower clinical activity index (Lichtiger index; CAI) on admission and before combined therapy and a lower total dose of prednisolone during hospitalization. The 1‐year relapse rate was 33.3%. Adverse events due to combined therapy included renal impairment (n = 2), tremors (n = 2), influenza (n = 1), and a positive cytomegalovirus antibody test (n = 3). None of these events were serious. Conclusions Combined therapy was effective in more than half of the patients with refractory UC who had not responded to monotherapy. Our findings suggest that combination therapy may be a new, third option for the treatment of refractory UC.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW To describe the development of re-do pouch surgery, what it entails, its indications and role in the management of patients with inflammatory bowel disease. RECENT FINDINGS Re-do pouch surgery has very good outcomes and excellent patient satisfaction when performed on carefully selected patients in specialized centers. SUMMARY The ileal pouch anal anastomosis (IPAA) procedure, which was developed 40 years ago, is a mainstay in the reconstruction of patients who undergo a proctoclectomy for ulcerative colitis and familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP). It allows these patients to avoid a permanent ileostomy, with the majority having a very good quality of life and functional outcomes. Unfortunately, a small but not insignificant number of patients will develop technical complications that may severely affect their quality of life and function of the pouch. In the past, pouch excision with permanent diversion or Koch pouch were the only option available to these patients. Recent advances have resulted in the development of corrective surgical measures to restore pouch function. We will discuss strategies to evaluate and select the right patients for a re-do pouch surgery, how to surgically optimize them, and describe the proper technique of ileal pouch revision and reconstruction.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/PURPOSE Colectomy with ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (IPAA) is the standard of care for patients with familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) and refractory ulcerative colitis (UC). The rates of postoperative complications are not well established in children. The objective of this systematic review is to establish benchmark data for morbidity after pediatric IPAA. METHODS PubMed, Embase, and The Cochrane Library were searched for studies of colectomy with IPAA in patients ≤21 years old. UC studies were limited to the anti-tumor necrosis factor-α agents era (1998-present). All postoperative complications were extracted. RESULTS Thirteen studies met the inclusion criteria (763 patients). Compared to patients with FAP, UC patients had a higher prevalence of pouch loss (10.6% vs. 1.5%). Other major complications such as anastomotic leak, abscess, and fistula were uncommon (mean prevalence 4.9%, 4.2%, and 5.0%, respectively, for patients with UC; 8.7%, 4.2%, and 4.3% for FAP). The most frequent complication was pouchitis (36.4% of UC patients). CONCLUSIONS Devastating complications from colectomy and IPAA are rare, but patients with UC have poorer outcomes than those with FAP. Much of the morbidity may therefore stem from patient or disease factors. Multicenter, prospective studies are needed to identify modifiable risks in patients with UC undergoing IPAA. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Prognostic, level II.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Anastomotic complications after restorative total proctocolectomy with IPAA for ulcerative colitis alter functional outcomes and quality of life and may lead to pouch failure. Routine contrast enema of the pouch assesses anastomotic integrity before ileostomy reversal, but its clinical use is challenged. OBJECTIVE The purpose of this research was to assess the relationship among preoperative clinical characteristics, abnormal pouchography, and long-term pouch complications. DESIGN This was a retrospective chart review. SETTINGS The study was conducted at a tertiary care center between 2000 and 2010. PATIENTS Ulcerative colitis patients with IPAA undergoing pouchography before ileostomy closure were included. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Patient demographics, incidence of pouch-related complications, and findings on pouchogram were recorded. Primary outcome was pouch failure, defined as excision or permanent diversion of the ileoanal pouch. Independent predictors of pouch failure were determined by multivariate regression. RESULTS A total of 262 patients with ulcerative colitis were included. Contrast extravasation was seen in 27 patients (10.3%): 14 (51.9%) were clinically asymptomatic at the time of pouchogram. Six (22.2%) of 27 patients with extravasation developed pouch failure despite normalization of the pouchogram before ileostomy closure. Forty patients (15.3%) were found to have pouch-anal anastomotic stenosis; only 1 developed pouch failure. Pre-IPAA serum albumin and hemoglobin levels were inversely associated with contrast extravasation (serum albumin: OR = 0.42; hemoglobin: OR = 0.77; p < 0.05). Contrast extravasation was associated with delayed takedown operation (average = 67 d), increased risk (OR = 5.25; p < 0.01), and shorter time (median = 32.0 vs 72.5 mo; HR = 5.88; p < 0.05) to pouch failure, as well as increased risk of pouch-related complications (p < 0.05). LIMITATIONS The study was limited by its retrospective nature and small number of patients who developed pouch failure. CONCLUSIONS Pouchography before ileostomy takedown is useful in identifying patients with ulcerative colitis at risk for postoperative complications. Radiologic resolution of IPAA-related leak does not reliably predict healing; caution is warranted in this subgroup. See Video Abstract at http://links.lww.com/DCR/A818.

Eur Radiol 2018; 29:1754-1761. [PMID: 30324385 DOI: 10.1007/s00330-018-5760-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/29/2018] [Revised: 08/21/2018] [Accepted: 09/13/2018] [Indexed: 12/19/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Restorative proctocolectomy with ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (IPAA) is the "gold standard" procedure for patients with ulcerative colitis (UC) requiring surgical intervention. A de-functioning ileostomy is usually performed, as a step for the IPAA procedure. The aim of this study is to present the methodology and results of the routine double assessment of IPAA integrity in asymptomatic patients prior to the ileostomy reversal and evaluate its necessity. METHODS This is a retrospective study of 61 UC patients, who underwent IPAA construction, in 2010-2016. A diverting ileostomy was created after IPAA construction, which was reversed at least 3 months later. A double assessment, with pouchogram and pouchoscopy, of IPAA integrity was performed, before stoma closure. Post-operative symptoms and signs of complications, imaging studies, and endoscopic findings were recorded during follow-up. RESULTS Prior to the ileostomy reversal, both pouchoscopy and pouchogram identified no patient with evidence of anastomotic leakage. During a mean follow-up of 3.67 years after ileostomy reversal, 11 patients developed complications but only one had signs of leakage, which presented as a pouch-vaginal fistula. The specificity of both the pouchogram and pouchoscopy reached 100% and the negative predictive value ranged between 98.4 and 100%. CONCLUSIONS The specificity of pouchoscopy and pouchogram prior to ileostomy closure, in asymptomatic patients with IPAA for UC, is very high in recognizing an intact anastomosis, but their combination did not alter the diagnostic accuracy or had any effect in further management. At least, pouchogram could be selectively performed only in patients with high-risk clinical indicators. KEY POINTS • The double assessment of ileal pouch-anal anastomosis with pouchogram and pouchoscopy, prior to ileostomy closure, specifically in patients with ulcerative colitis has not been evaluated before. • The specificity of pouchoscopy and pouchogram prior to ileostomy closure, in asymptomatic patients with IPAA for UC, is very high in recognizing an intact anastomosis. • However, their combination did not alter the diagnostic accuracy or had any effect in further management, in asymptomatic patients.

Abstract
Endoscopy is a central tool for the evaluation and management of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). In the last few decades, gastrointestinal (GI) endoscopy has undergone significant technological developments including availability of pediatric-size equipment, enabling comprehensive investigation of the GI tract in children. Simultaneously, professional organization of GI experts have developed guidelines and training programs in pediatric GI endoscopy. This prompted the Porto Group on Pediatric IBD of the European Society for Pediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Nutrition to develop updated guidelines on the role of GI endoscopy in pediatric IBD, specifically taking into considerations of recent advances in the diagnosis, disease stratification, and novel therapeutic targets in these patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Restorative proctocolectomy with ileal pouch-anal anastomosis removes the diseased tissue in ulcerative colitis but also allows gastrointestinal continuity and stoma-free living. Pouch strictures are a complication with a reported incidence of 5-38%. The three areas where pouch strictures occur are in the pouch inlet, mid-pouch and pouch-anal anastomosis. AIM To undertake a systematic review of the literature and to identify management strategies available for pouch-anal, mid-pouch and pre-pouch ileal strictures and their outcomes. METHODS A computer-assisted search of the online bibliographic databases MEDLINE and EMBASE limited to 1966 to February 2016 was performed. Randomized controlled trials, cohort studies, observational studies and case reports were considered. Those where data could not be extracted were excluded. RESULTS Twenty-two articles were considered eligible. Pouch-anal strictures have been initially managed using predominately dilators which include bougie and Hegar dilators with various surgical procedures advocated when initial dilatation fails. Mid-pouch strictures are relatively unstudied with both medical, endoscopic and surgical management reported as successful. Pouch inlet strictures can be safely managed using a combined medical and endoscopic approach. CONCLUSION The limited evidence available suggests that pouch-anal strictures are best treated in a stepwise fashion with initial treatment to include digital or instrumental dilatation followed by surgical revision or resection. Management of mid-pouch strictures requires a combination of medical, endoscopic and surgical management. Pouch inlet strictures are best managed using a combined medical and endoscopic approach. Future studies should compare different treatment modalities on separate stricture locations to enable an evidenced-based treatment algorithm.

Abstract
Chronic pouchitis (CP) after ileal pouch-anal anastomosis is a significant clinical problem. Adipose tissues produce antiinflammatory cytokines and chemokines. We evaluated the association between abdominal visceral fat area (VFA) and CP. Patients with a preoperative CT evaluation were included. The diagnosis of CP was confirmed in all cases by endoscopy with afferent ileal limb intubation. Patients were allocated into groups of high VFA and low VFA. The study cohort of 52 patients had a median body mass index of 22 (range, 14–32). Indications for surgery were medically refractory disease in 46 (88%) patients and cancer/dysplasia in six (12%) patients. Median VFA was 27.1 (range, 1–144). Six (12%) patients developed CP. Low VFA patients were significantly younger (29 vs 45 years; P < 0.0001), had lower body mass index (20.4 vs 24.7; P < 0.0001), had surgery more commonly for medically refractory disease than for cancer or dysplasia (100 vs 77%; P = 0.02), and had a higher incidence of CP than high VFA patients (23 vs 0%; P = 0.02). Multiple linear regression analysis demonstrated that only low VFA was associated with CP (P = 0.009). An association is present between VFA and CP after ileal pouch-anal anastomosis, implicating adipocytes in the pathogenesis of inflammatory bowel disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Health-related quality of life (HRQL) and disability were compared in ulcerative colitis (UC) patients who underwent restorative proctocolectomy versus patients who received treatment with anti-tumor necrosis factor (anti-TNF) agents. PATIENTS AND METHODS UC patients who underwent restorative proctocolectomy or started anti-TNF treatment between January 2010 and January 2015 were included at two tertiary referral centers. A matched cohort was created using propensity score matching for the covariates disease duration, Montreal classification, age, and sex. HRQL and disability were assessed using the Colorectal Functional Outcome (COREFO), Inflammatory Bowel Disease Disability Index (IBD-DI), EuroQol-5D-3L, and Short Form 36 (SF-36) questionnaires. RESULTS In total, 297 patients were included, of whom 205 (69%) patients responded. Fifty-nine pouch patients were matched to 59 anti-TNF-treated patients. Pouch patients reported better general health scores (P=0.042) compared with the anti-TNF group (SF-36). No differences were found for the EuroQol-5D-3L and IBD-DI between the two groups. Pouch patients had significantly higher COREFO scores compared with anti-TNF-treated patients for 'stool frequency' (P<0.001), 'antidiarrheal medication use' (P<0.001), and 'stool-related aspects' (P=0.004), of which the latter was because of a higher perianal skin irritation frequency (P<0.001). CONCLUSION UC patients who underwent restorative proctocolectomy reported a higher bowel movement frequency and more perianal skin irritation compared with anti-TNF-treated patients, but this did not affect overall disease-specific disability outcomes. Patients in the surgery group reported better outcomes for generic health compared with those in the anti-TNF group.

Abstract
Colorectal pediatric surgery is a diverse field that encompasses many different procedures. The pullthrough for Hirschsprung disease, the posterior sagittal anorectoplasty for anorectal malformations including complex cloaca reconstructions and the ileal pouch anal anastomosis for ulcerative colitis and familial adenomatous polyposis present some of the most technically challenging procedures pediatric surgeons undertake. Many children prevail successfully following these surgical interventions, however, a small number of patients suffer from complications following these procedures. Anticipated postoperative problems are discussed along with medical and surgical strategies for managing these complications.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is associated with increased risk of colorectal cancer (CRC). The risk is known to increase with longer duration of the disease, family history of CRC, and history of primary sclerosing cholangitis. The diagnosis of the neoplastic changes associated with IBD is difficult owing to the heterogeneous endoscopic appearance and inter-observer variability of the pathological diagnosis. Screening and surveillance guidelines have been established which aim for early detection of neoplasia. Several surgical options are available for the treatment of IBD-associated neoplasia. Patients’ morbidities, risk factors for CRC, degree and the extent of neoplasia must be considered in choosing the surgical treatment. A multidisciplinary team including the surgeon, gastroenterologist, pathologist, and the patient who has a clear understanding of the nature of their disease is needed to optimize outcomes.

Abstract
PURPOSE The pelvic pouch procedure (PPP) carries significant post-operative complication risks including a 4-14 % risk of ileo-anal anastomotic (IAA) leak [1-4]. The aim of this study is to evaluate the severity of disease at the distal resection margin as an independent risk factor for an IAA leak following the PPP for patients with ulcerative colitis (UC). METHODS A retrospective matched case-control study was undertaken. The distal margin of each subject's specimen was reviewed by a blinded pathologist and the degree of inflammation was scored using a modified histological activity index (mHAI)--a 0 to 5 graded scale with HAI of 5 representing ulcerations >25 % the depth of bowel wall. RESULTS Forty-nine patients with perioperative IAA leaks (mean 11 days ±0.92) were identified and matched for gender, age and year of surgery. The case cohort had 33 males (67 %) of mean age at time of surgery of 36.3 years (±1.42). The severity of distal inflammation did not increase the risk of IAA leak. The presence of a diverting ileostomy was associated with a decreased incidence of an IAA leak (p = 0.01). CONCLUSION Studies with greater power will be required to evaluate the association (if any) between histological severity of UC at the distal margin of a PPP procedure and IAA leak rate. This risk factor could influence preoperative management and post-operative outcome in patients requiring the PPP.

Abstract
Ileal pouch-anal anastomosis is currently accepted as the standard method to restore continence after total proctocolectomy for medically refractory ulcerative colitis and familial adenomatous polyposis. Ileal pouches offer improved quality of life and high patient satisfaction; however, there are many pouch-related complications due to the original disease process and change in anatomy. This is a review article of the common and some rare surgical complications after J pouches, which can be subdivided into the septic and nonseptic categories. Septic-related complications include anastomotic leak, abscess, and fistulas, whereas common nonseptic-related complications include small bowel obstruction, strictures, Crohn's disease, pouchitis, and cuffitis. Rare nonseptic complications to be discussed are prolapse, volvulus, and neoplasia.

[PMID: 24418659 DOI: 10.1016/j.crohns.2013.12.011] [Citation(s) in RCA: 21] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/10/2013] [Revised: 12/04/2013] [Accepted: 12/16/2013] [Indexed: 02/06/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS We compared health-related quality of life (HRQL) and disability in ulcerative colitis (UC) patients in remission with anti-tumor necrosis factor agents (TNF) or after restorative proctocolectomy (RPC) with ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (IPAA). METHODS Two patient cohorts were studied. The first group consisted of patients in remission after RPC with IPAA (surgery group). The second group consisted of patients in remission with infliximab or adalimumab (medical group). For inclusion in the surgery group the pouch had to be functional for ≥1year and patients were excluded in case of postoperative complications. In the medical group, patients had to be on maintenance therapy with anti-TNF agents for ≥1year and in clinical remission. HRQL and disability outcomes were assessed using SF-36, COREFO, WPAI:UC and EORTC questionnaires. RESULTS 60 patients were included, 30 patients in both groups. 58 out of 60 patients (97%) returned the completed questionnaires: 29 patients in the surgery group (median age 42 years [22-67]; 48% female) and 29 patients in the medical group (median age 45 years [19-68]; 65% female). Patient characteristics were comparable between the two groups. There were no significant differences in SF-36, WPAI:UC and EORTC questionnaires between both groups, except for the medication and stool frequency scale (COREFO questionnaire) that was significantly higher in the surgery vs. the medical group (p=0.004 and p<0.001, respectively). CONCLUSION HRQL and disability were not different among the medical and surgical group, except for stool frequency and anti-diarrhea medication use that was significantly higher in surgically treated patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Guidelines on the management of colon cancer state that extensive colectomy should be "considered" for patients of young age (<50). This study aimed to compare the risk of metachronous cancer, overall recurrence and mortality between segmental and extended colon resections in patients under the age of 50 with sporadic CRC. METHODS We performed a retrospective review of patients age <50 undergoing surgery for CRC from 1991 to 2009. Patients were divided into two groups based on extent of resection: segmental versus extended. The primary outcomes analyzed were metachronous tumors, disease recurrence, and overall survival. RESULTS Two hundred seventy one patients underwent segmental resection and 30 underwent extended resection. 3.3% in the segmental resection group developed metachronous CRC versus 0% in the extended resection group (P = 0.61). There was no significant difference in the risk of recurrence or mortality for those who underwent a segmental resection compared to those with an extended resection. In a regression model, type of surgery was not an independent risk factor for recurrence or mortality. CONCLUSIONS Extended colectomy for sporadic CRC in patients younger than 50 does not improve disease-free or overall survival. Further study to determine if segmental resection is appropriate oncologic treatment is warranted.

Abstract
Quality of life and disability have been compared in patients with ulcerative colitis who were undergoing one of the two current major treatments of choice, proctocolectomy or anti-TNF therapy. The only significant differences between the two groups were increased use of antidiarrhoeal medication and stool frequency in those who underwent surgery.

Abstract
Total proctocolectomy with ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (IPAA) surgery has become the surgical procedure of choice for chronic ulcerative colitis and familial adenomatous polyposis. Since its introduction in 1978, the technique of ileal pouch-anal anastomosis has improved and is commonly performed. Although associated with low mortality, postsurgical complications are frequent with which the radiologist should be familiar. An understanding of surgical technique and postsurgical anatomy facilitates the diagnosis of these frequently encountered complications and governs their potential image-guided intervention.

Abstract
Videocapsule endoscopy (VCE) has revolutionized our ability to visualize the small bowel mucosa. This modality is a valuable tool for the diagnosis of obscure small bowel Crohn’s disease (CD), and can also be used for monitoring of disease activity in patients with established small-bowel CD, detection of complications such as obscure bleeding and neoplasms, evaluation of response to anti-inflammatory treatment and postoperative recurrence following small bowel resection. VCE could also be an important tool in the management of patients with unclassified inflammatory bowel disease, potentially resulting in reclassification of these patients as having CD. Reports on postoperative monitoring and evaluation of patients with ileal pouch-anal anastomosis who have developed pouchitis have recenty been published. Monitoring of colonic inflammatory activity in patients with ulcerative colitis using the recently developed colonic capsule has also been reported. Capsule endoscopy is associated with an excellent safety profile. Although retention risk is increased in patients with small bowel CD, this risk can be significanty decreased by a routine utilization of a dissolvable patency capsule preceding the ingestion of the diagnostic capsule. This paper contains an overview of the current and future clinical applications of capsule endoscopy in inflammatory bowel disease.

Abstract
Endoscopic therapies are important modalities in the treatment of IBD, adjunct to medical and surgical approaches. These therapeutic techniques are particularly useful in the management of IBD-associated or IBD surgery–associated strictures, fistulas, and sinuses and colitis-associated neoplasia. Although the main focus of endoscopic therapies in IBD has been on balloon stricture dilation and ablation of adenoma-like lesions, new endoscopic approaches are emerging, including needle-knife stricturotomy, needle-knife sinusotomy, endoscopic stent placement, and fistula tract injection. Risk management of endoscopy-associated adverse events is also evolving. The application of endoscopic techniques in novel ways in the treatment of IBD is just beginning and will likely expand rapidly in the near future.
