Background: Familial adenomatous polyposis is a cancer-predisposing syndrome caused by germline pathogenic variants of the adenomatous polyposis coli gene, leading to numerous colorectal polyps and a high risk of colorectal cancer. Desmoid tumours have become significant in the management of familial adenomatous polyposis after a colectomy, yet the exact incidence remains undetermined due to a lack of dedicated surveillance.
Methods: This retrospective study accessed data from the prospectively maintained Hereditary Digestive Tumours Registry from 2000 to 2023.

Chronic pouchitis occurs in about 50% of patients undergoing a restorative proctocolectomy for ulcerative colitis. This affection represents a significant therapeutic challenge, particularly for symptomatic patients who do not respond to antibiotic treatments and biologic therapies. Several dietary approaches, including low FODMAP diets and the Mediterranean diet, have shown promising results in improving symptoms and disease burden.

Background Restorative proctocolectomy with ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (IPAA) is often considered the preferred surgical treatment for ulcerative colitis. This study was conducted to investigate the early and late complications of ileal pouch-anal anastomosis in patients with ulcerative colitis, as well as the factors associated with these complications. Methodology All relevant clinical and operative data of patients (n = 101) who underwent IPAA for ulcerative colitis between January 1995 and December 2018 were retrieved from a prospectively maintained database.

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.
