Published: September 2024

Children who undergo ileal pouch anal anastomosis (IPAA) surgery for refractory ulcerative colitis (UC) may ultimately develop a Crohn's disease (CD) phenotype. This de novo CD is open to broad interpretation and misattribution, and its manifestation in children is poorly understood. The surgically altered environment of the ileal pouch is at risk of a spectrum of ileal pouch disorders, which have limited description in children. In this issue of Inflammatory Bowel Diseases, a multicenter, retrospective study of children with UC who underwent IPAA and developed de novo CD highlights the challenges and opportunities of ileal pouch characterization in children.

Objectives: To prevent colorectal cancer (CRC), most patients with familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) undergo (procto)colectomy with ileorectal anastomosis (IRA) or ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (IPAA). After surgery, these patients remain at risk of developing cancer in the remnant rectum or rectal cuff/pouch. We aimed to compare the long-term risk of cancer following IRA or IPAA in FAP.

Pouchitis is a common complication after ileal-pouch anal anastomosis in patients with medically refractory ulcerative colitis. There has been a lack of high-level evidence focusing on the safety and efficacy outcomes of fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT). We aim to evaluate outcomes and complications of fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) for chronic pouchitis.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates the impact of obesity on postoperative complications in ulcerative colitis patients undergoing a specific surgery (IPAA).
  • Results showed no significant difference in overall complication rates between obese and non-obese patients, though obese patients had slightly longer hospital stays.
  • The findings highlight low certainty of evidence, suggesting further research is needed to draw definitive conclusions.

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.

Introduction: One anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB) is a common procedure associated with satisfactory outcomes. Revisional surgery due to weight regain or insufficient weight loss (WR/IWL) after OAGB is underreported.

Methods: A retrospective analysis of a single-bariatric surgeon database was conducted.
