Colectomy reconstruction for ulcerative colitis in Sweden and England: a multicenter prospective comparison between ileorectal anastomosis and ileal pouch-anal anastomosis after colectomy in patients with ulcerative colitis. (CRUISE-study).

Background: There are no prospective trials comparing the two main reconstructive options after colectomy for Ulcerative colitis, ileal pouch anal anastomosis and ileorectal anastomosis. An attempt on a randomized controlled trial has been made but after receiving standardized information patients insisted on choosing operation themselves.

Methods: Adult Ulcerative colitis patients subjected to colectomy eligible for both ileal pouch anastomosis and ileorectal anastomosis are asked to participate and after receiving standardized information the get to choose reconstructive method.

Reoperations and Long-term Survival of Kock's Continent Ileostomy in Patients With IBD: A Population-Based National Cohort Study From Sweden.

Background: Kock's continent ileostomy is an option after proctocolectomy for patients not suitable for IPAA or ileorectal anastomosis. Ulcerative colitis is the most common indication for continent ileostomy.

Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the long-term outcome of continent ileostomy.

Staging Pouch Surgery in Ulcerative Colitis in the Biological Era.

Restorative proctocolectomy, or ileal pouch anal anastomosis, is considered the standard treatment for intractable ulcerative colitis. When the pelvic pouch was first introduced in 1978, a two-stage procedure with proctocolectomy, construction of the pelvic pouch, and a diverting loop with subsequent closure were suggested. Over the decades that the pelvic pouch has been around, some principal technical issues have been addressed to improve the method.

Long-term Follow-up, Patient Satisfaction, and Quality of Life for Patients With Kock's Continent Ileostomy.

Background: Continent ileostomy is a solution for patients after proctocolectomy.

Objective: The aim of this study was to assess the long-term complications and failure rate alongside patient satisfaction, function, and quality of life for patients with a continent ileostomy.

Design: This was a retrospective, descriptive cross-sectional study.
