    Abstract:
    BACKGROUND: The elective prophylaxis for colorectal cancer in patients with familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) or with ulcerative colitis (UC) is the RPIPAA. AIMS: To evaluate the functional results and the morbidity rate in patients who underwent restorative proctocolectomy with ileal-pouch anal anastomosis (RPIPAA). METHODS: All patient underwent a proctocolectomy with a J reservoir, ileal pouch-anal anastomosis. RESULTS: There were 8 males and 3 females with a mean age of 31 years; the diagnoses were: FAP (n = 4); FAP + colorectal cancer (n = 3); metachronous colorectal cancer (n = 3) and UC + right colon cancer (n = 1). The average surgical time and the intraoperative bleeding were 5.6 h and 600 ml respectively. There were no operative deaths. The surgical complications were: section of left urether (n = 1); hemoperitoneum of 1,200 ml (n = 1); minor pelvic sepsis (n = 1); ileoanal stenosis (n = 1) and pouchitis (n = 1). Tumor staging was: Dukes A (n = 2), B1 (n = 1), B2 (n = 4). The mean follow-up was 22 months. Average of stools at the 3rd, 6th and 12th month was: 7.4, 5.6 and 3.8 respectively. Sexual function was: normal (n = 8), retrograde ejaculation (n = 2) and impotence (n = 1). The use of antidiarrheal agents in 24 hours at the third, sixth and twelfth month was 3, 2 and .8 respectively. CONCLUSIONS: The RPIPAA is associated with a low rate of morbidity and good functional results, similar to previously published results. However, these results should be taken with caution due to the small, selected and retrospective nature of the study.
