Ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (IPAA) is the surgical procedure of choice for patients with ulcerative colitis undergoing elective restorative proctolectomy. It preserves intestinal continuity and sphincter function and removes the entire colorectal mucosa. The most frequently observed long-term complication of IPAA is acute and/or chronic inflammation of the ileal reservoir, called pouchitis.

Abstract

Ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (IPAA) is the surgical procedure of choice for patients with ulcerative colitis undergoing elective restorative proctolectomy. It preserves intestinal continuity and sphincter function and removes the entire colorectal mucosa. The most frequently observed long-term complication of IPAA is acute and/or chronic inflammation of the ileal reservoir, called pouchitis.
