Congenital pouch colon (CPC) in the female patient presents with highly variable and anomalous anatomy. We herein report the first case of CPC with uterus didelphys having normal anal opening, H-type vestibular fistula, two other fistulous communications between pouch colon and two vagina managed in a single stage with excellent postoperative outcome.

Chronic pouchitis (CP) occurs in approximately 20% of patients with ulcerative colitis after total proctocolectomy with ileal pouch anal anastomosis and is categorized as antibiotic dependent, antibiotic refractory, or Crohn's disease-like. The management of CP is challenging because of limited evidence and few randomized controlled trials. In this review, we discuss the medical management of CP and its supporting data delineated by type of therapy.

Background: Proctocolectomy with ileal pouch-anal anastomosis is the treatment of choice for patients with ulcerative colitis with medical refractory disease or dysplasia. The aim of this research was to describe the evolution of ileal pouch-anal anastomosis surgery and surgical outcomes over a three-decade interval in a high-volume referral centre.
Methods: All consecutive patients undergoing ileal pouch-anal anastomosis for ulcerative colitis between 1990 and 2022 at the University Hospitals of Leuven were retrospectively included.

Total proctocolectomy with ileal pouch anal anastomosis is the standard of care for patients with severe ulcerative colitis. We generated a cell-type-resolved transcriptional and epigenetic atlas of ileal pouches using scRNA-seq and scATAC-seq data from paired biopsy samples of the ileal pouch and the ileal segment above the pouch (pre-pouch) from patients (male=4, female=2), and paired biopsies of the terminal ileum and ascending colon from healthy individuals (male=3, female=3) serving as reference. Our study finds an additional population of absorptive and secretory epithelial cells within the pouch but not the pre-pouch.

Background: There is limited data within the urologic literature regarding bowel complications and leak rates following surgery requiring ileocolic anastomoses such as right colon pouch (RCP) and continent cutaneous ileocecocystoplasty (CCIC). We aimed to establish ileocolic anastomotic leak rates in urologic reconstructive surgery and determine bowel-related complications following RCP and CCIC surgeries.
Methods: We reviewed adult patients who underwent RCP or CCIC (2010-2022), investigating patient characteristics, perioperative variables, and outcomes.

Background: Pouchitis is the most common complication of restorative proctocolectomy (RPC) with ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (IPAA) in patients with ulcerative colitis (UC). We previously reported the presence of anti-integrin αvβ6 antibodies in the serum of patients with UC. This study investigated the association between anti-integrin αvβ6 antibodies and the development of pouchitis in patients with UC.
