Abstract
BACKGROUND: Ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (IPAA) is performed routinely for chronic ulcerative colitis.
METHODS: Using data from a prospective database and annual standardized questionnaires, functional outcome, complications and quality of life (QoL) after IPAA were assessed.
RESULTS: Some 1885 IPAA operations were performed for chronic ulcerative colitis over a 20-year period (mean follow-up 11 years). The mean age at the time of IPAA was 34.1 years, increasing from 31.2 years (1981-1985) to 36.3 years (1996-2000). The overall rate of pouch success at 5, 10, 15 and 20 years was 96.3, 93.3, 92.4 and 92.1 per cent respectively. Mean daytime stool frequency increased from 5.7 at 1 year to 6.4 at 20 years (P < 0.001), and also increased at night (from 1.5 to 2.0; P < 0.001). The incidence of frequent daytime faecal incontinence increased from 5 to 11 per cent during the day (P < 0.001) and from 12 to 21 per cent at night (P < 0.001). QoL remained unchanged and 92 per cent remained in the same employment. Seventy-six patients were eventually diagnosed with indeterminate colitis and 47 with Crohn's disease.
CONCLUSION: IPAA is a reliable surgical procedure for patients requiring proctocolectomy for chronic ulcerative colitis and indeterminate colitis. The clinical and functional outcomes are excellent and stable for 20 years after operation.
