  • Title: [Laparoscopic ileal pouch-anal anastomosis].
    Author: Alves A, Panis Y.
    Journal: Ann Chir; 2005; 130(6-7):421-5. PubMed ID: 15950920.
    Abstract:
    Total coloproctectomy with ileal pouch-anal anastomosis is the operation of choice for both ulcerative colitis and familial adenomatous polyposis. In experienced teams, it is now possible to do this operation through a laparoscopic approach. Laparoscopy allows to perform the same operation than during open surgery, but with reduction of the surgical trauma, especially for the abdominal wound.
