    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the clinical outcomes of ileal D-pouch anal anastomosis in the treatment of ulcerative colitis (UC) and familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP). METHODS: Clinical and follow-up data of 6 UC patients and 5 FAP patients undergoing proctocolectomy and D-ileum pouch anal anastomosis between October 2014 and March 2015 were retrospectively analyzed. End-to-side anastomosis was firstly performed in ileal cutting end and ileum, then side-to-side anastomosis was operated in closing amphi-loop to construct the D-ileum pouch. RESULTS: The mean age of the patients was 42 years (range 18 to 61 years), 5 patients were female. The duration of surgery was (225±23) min, the operation time to D-ileum pouch was (18±4) min, the volume of D-ileum pouch was (175±15) ml, the blood loss was (110±30) ml. There was no procedure-related death, however rectum perforation occurred in 1 male UC patient during operation. The postoperative hospital stay was 8 to 11 days (mean 8.5 days). The follow-up period was 2 to 7 months (median 3 months). One female FAP patient suffered from anal anastomosis vagina fistula 21 days after operation. No pouch-related fistula, anastomosis or input loop stricture fecal incontinence, and severe pouchitis were recorded. The defecation frequency was 4 to 6 times per day (UC) and 3 to 5 times per day (FAP) 6 months after operation. No night-time fecal leakage was complained in those patients. Wexner incontinence score was 3±2 and GQLI was 114±11 one month after operation. Clinical outcome in the first month was excellent in 10 patients and good in 1 patient. CONCLUSIONS: After total colorectal resection for UC and FAP patients, application of D-ileum pouch can clear ileal stump of pouch and avoid the pouch-associated complications effectively.
