    Abstract:
    Technical alternatives in conservative proctocolectomy are presently investigated to improve the functional results of the operation. To avoid 2 difficult steps in the procedure, mucosectomy and transanal manual suturing, is of interest to retain the entire and canal and to reduce anal stretching duration. A new technique of stapled anastomosis is described: after full mobilization and eversion of the rectum, this latter is closed using a linear stapler and cut immediately above the anal canal; a 18 cm long J pouch is constructed and the anastomosis is stapled using the new premium EEA instrument*. Clinical experience begun in 1989 january, concerns 6 patients (2 U.C., 4 polyposis): at this time, 5 of these had their ileostomy closed, functional results being under evaluation. This method allows 1) to retain all the anal canal, 2) to avoid prolonged anal dilatation, 3) to perform a rapid and safe stapled anastomosis.
