Indeterminate colitis combines features of chronic ulcerative colitis and Crohn's colitis and contemplates a dilemma for the patient and surgeon contemplating ileal pouch anal anastomosis. Some series have reported a high incidence of failure of pouch procedures in patients with indeterminate colitis. A series reported by the authors in 1989 reported a failure rate on approximately 9% with indeterminate colitis. In updating this series with additional patients operated on since that time, the incidence in our series approaches 20%. We feel that an 80% success rate, however, justifies performing the ileal pouch anal procedure in carefully selected patients with indeterminate colitis, knowing that the failure rate may be somewhat higher than in patients with type ordainer chronic ulcerative colitis.

Background: This study aims to report the experience over 40 years and outcomes of 5070 patients who underwent a pelvic pouch procedure.
Methods: A retrospective analysis of a prospectively maintained IPAA database- (1983 - 2022) was performed. Patients were stratified based on the diagnosis: ulcerative colitis (UC), indeterminate colitis (IC), familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP), inflammatory bowel disease-dysplasia, Crohn's colitis (CD), and others.

Background: Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a rare adverse effect linked to secukinumab, with limited clinical data available. This study aimed to analyze the clinical features of secukinumab-induced IBD and to offer recommendations for the careful administration of secukinumab.
Methods: We conducted a retrospective analysis by gathering case reports and case series of secukinumab-induced IBD through a database search, with data collected until September 30, 2024.

Background: Clonal hematopoiesis of indeterminate potential (CHIP) is the presence of somatic mutations in myeloid and lymphoid malignancy genes in the blood cells of individuals without a hematologic malignancy. Inflammation is hypothesized to be a key mediator in the progression of CHIP to hematologic malignancy and patients with CHIP have a high prevalence of inflammatory diseases. This study aimed to identify the prevalence and characteristics of CHIP in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).

Introduction It is sometimes difficult to differentiate between intestinal tuberculosis (ITB) and Crohn's disease (CD) in India, as both conditions may mimic each other. The aim was to differentiate ITB from CD in indeterminate intestinal lesions with a therapeutic trial of anti-tubercular therapy (ATT) and follow-up to find out the clinical, endoscopic, radiological, and histological predictors for differentiation between ITB and CD. Methods A prospective observational cohort study of patients diagnosed with ITB and CD according to the Asia-Pacific Guidelines in a "real-life" clinical setting was conducted.
