Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Defunctioning loop ileostomy (DLI) is frequently used to decrease the consequences of anastomotic leak after ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (IPAA) surgery but is controversial because of stoma-associated morbidity. The aim of this study was to describe stoma-associated morbidity in IPAA-DLI patients compared with terminal ileostomy patients. METHODS Patients treated with colectomy for inflammatory bowel disease at Skåne University Hospital, Sweden, between 2005 and 2021 were eligible for inclusion. Terminal stoma-related morbidity was measured until 12 months after colectomy, IPAA surgery, or conversion to ileorectal anastomosis, whichever occurred first. DLI-related morbidity was measured until 12 months after IPAA surgery or stoma closure, whichever occurred first. Laboratory data were reviewed up to 18 months after surgery since patients without complications were rarely subjected to blood sampling. Data on patient characteristics, renal function, surgical complications, and readmissions were collected retrospectively. Primary outcomes were DLI- and terminal ileostomy-related renal morbidity, whereas secondary outcomes focused on stoma-related complications. RESULTS The study cohort consisted of 165 patients with terminal ileostomy after colectomy (median (interquartile range (IQR)): stoma time 30 (15-74) months) and 42 patients with IPAA-DLI (median (IQR): stoma time 4 (3-5) months). One case of anastomotic IPAA leakage was observed. IPAA-DLI patients more often required hospital care due to high-volume stoma output immediately after surgery (0-30 days, 29%) compared with terminal ileostomy patients (4%, p < 0.001). There were no significant differences in acute renal injury (p = 0.073) or chronic renal failure (p = 0.936) incidences between the groups. DLI closure was achieved in 95% of IPAA-DLI patients, with 5% suffering Clavien-Dindo complications > 2. CONCLUSIONS IPAA-DLI patients exhibited higher incidence of short-term high-volume stoma output without higher rates of acute renal injury or chronic renal failure compared with terminal ileostomy patients in this small single-center retrospective study suggesting that the risk of renal morbidity in IPAA-DLI patients may have been overestimated.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The effect of radiation on the ileal pouch is less well studied in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and ileal pouch-anal anastomosis. AIMS This retrospective study investigates the impact of external radiation therapy on the outcomes of ileal pouches. METHODS The study included 82 patients with IBD and ileal pouches, of whom 12 received pelvic radiation, 16 abdominal radiation, 14 radiation in other fields, and 40 served as controls with no radiation. Pouch-related outcomes, including pouch failure, worsening of symptoms, pouchitis, and development of strictures, along with changes in Pouch Disease Activity Index (PDAI) scores pre- and post-radiation were assessed. RESULTS The pelvic radiation group exhibited a significantly higher rate of pouch failure (25%, p < 0.004) and worsening pouch-related symptoms (75%, p = 0.012) compared to other groups. Although not statistically significant, a higher incidence of pouchitis was observed in the pelvic radiation group (45.5%, p = 0.071). Strictures were more common in the pelvic radiation group (25%, p = 0.043). Logistic regression analysis revealed that pelvic radiation significantly increased the odds of pouch-related adverse outcomes (OR 5.66; 95% confidence interval: 1.61-21.5). CONCLUSION Pelvic radiation significantly impacts the outcomes of ileal pouches in patients with IBD, increasing the risk of pouch failure, symptom exacerbation, and structural complications. These findings underscore the need for careful consideration of radiation therapy in this patient population and highlight the importance of closely monitoring and managing radiation-induced pouch dysfunction.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Pouchitis is the most common complication after ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (IPAA) for ulcerative colitis (UC); however, clinical and environmental risk factors for pouchitis remain poorly understood. We explored the relationship between specific clinical factors and the incidence of pouchitis. METHODS We established a population-based cohort of all adult persons in Denmark undergoing proctocolectomy with IPAA for UC from 1996-2020. We used Cox proportional hazard modeling to assess the impact of antibiotic, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) exposure, and appendectomy on diagnosis of acute pouchitis in the first 2 years after IPAA surgery. RESULTS Among 1616 eligible patients, 46% developed pouchitis in the first 2 years after IPAA. Antibiotic exposure in the 12 months before IPAA was associated with an increased risk of pouchitis (adjusted hazard ratio [aHR], 1.41; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.22-1.64) after adjusting for anti-tumor necrosis factor alpha use and sex. Compared with persons without any antibiotic prescriptions in the 12 months before IPAA, the risk of pouchitis was increased in those with 1 or 2 courses of antibiotics in that period (aHR, 1.30; 95% CI, 1.11-1.52) and 3 or more courses (aHR, 1.77; 95% CI, 1.41-2.21). NSAID exposure in the 12 months before IPAA and appendectomy were not associated with risk of acute pouchitis (P = .201 and P = .865, respectively). CONCLUSIONS In this population-based cohort study, we demonstrated that antibiotic exposure in the 12 months before IPAA is associated with an increased risk of acute pouchitis. Future prospective studies may isolate specific microbial changes in at-risk patients to drive earlier interventions.

Abstract
Background The most common complication following ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (IPAA) in patients with ulcerative colitis (UC) is pouchitis. Our study aimed to investigate the relationship between histopathologic findings of ileitis, granuloma, or transmural inflammation on the colectomy specimen of patients with clinically and endoscopically diagnosed UC and the development of pouchitis within the first 2 years after IPAA. Methods We performed a retrospective cohort study evaluating patients undergoing colectomy with IPAA for UC between January 1, 2004 and December 31, 2016. Bivariate analyses were conducted to evaluate the relationship between clinical factors and the development of pouchitis. We performed multivariate logistic regression to evaluate the relationship between histologic, clinical, and demographic factors at the time of colectomy and subsequent development of pouchitis. Results Among 626 patients, pouchitis occurred in 246 (39%). Patients with primary sclerosing cholangitis were more likely to develop pouchitis (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] 2.81, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.02-7.72), as were patients with a family history of inflammatory bowel disease (aOR 1.75, 95% CI 1.11-2.77). Histologic findings of ileitis, granuloma, or transmural inflammation were not associated with an increased odds of developing pouchitis (aOR 0.70, 95% CI 0.45-1.08). Discussion/Conclusion Patients with ileitis, granulomas, or transmural inflammation at the time of colectomy were not at greater risk for development of pouchitis in the 2 years after IPAA. These pathological findings should not preclude IPAA for UC.

Abstract
AIM Pouchitis is a clinically significant complication of ileal pouch-anal anastomosis with its prevalence varying in the literature. Pouchitis is thought to occur more commonly in patients with ulcerative colitis (UC) than in patients with familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP). We conducted a systematic review with meta-analysis of all published literature to report the prevalence of pouchitis in all pouch patients as well as specifically in UC and FAP. We also investigated the prevalence of acute and chronic pouchitis in UC and FAP. METHODS A meta-analysis was conducted by searching the Embase, Embase Classic and PubMed databases between 1978 and 2021 exploring the prevalence of pouchitis in UC and FAP. We then performed a random effects model in order to find the pooled prevalence of pouchitis and used odds ratios to report differences in the prevalence of pouchitis in UC and FAP. RESULTS Fifty-nine full papers and conference abstracts were included in the meta-analysis comprising 18 117 patients with UC and 860 with FAP. The prevalence of pouchitis in UC was 0.32 (95% CI 0.27-0.37) and in FAP was found to be 0.06 (95% CI 0.03-0.15). The odds ratio of pouchitis in UC patients compared with FAP patients was 4.95 (95% CI 3.17-7.72, P < 0.0001). CONCLUSIONS Our findings support the consensus that the prevalence of pouchitis is higher in UC than in FAP. More significantly our findings suggest that the true prevalence of pouchitis is higher than commonly reported in the literature. This literature may help counsel patients prior to undergoing restorative proctocolectomy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The optimal restorative surgical management of patients with concomitant diagnoses of primary sclerosing cholangitis and ulcerative colitis [PSC-UC] who require colectomy is controversial, given that patients may have an increased risk for pouchitis after ileal pouch-anal anastomosis [IPAA]. We aimed to compare rates of pouchitis and pouch failure among patients with and without PSC by performing a systematic review and meta-analysis. METHODS A systematic search performed through August 18, 2020, identified 12 studies that compared the rates of pouchitis [n = 11] and/or pouch failure [n = 6] among patients with PSC-UC and UC alone. We then performed a meta-analysis using random effects modelling to estimate the odds of developing any episodes of pouchitis or pouch failure. RESULTS A total of 4108 patients underwent an ileal pouch-anal anastomosis after proctocolectomy for UC. Of these, 3799 [92%] were performed for UC alone and 309 [8%] were performed for PSC-UC. In a meta-analysis of 11 studies, patients with PSC-UC compared with UC alone were significantly more likely to develop any pouchitis (63% vs 30%, odds ratio [OR] 4.21, 95% confidence interval [CI] 2.86-6.18), chronic pouchitis [47% vs 15%, OR 6.37, 95% CI 3.41-11.9], and pouch failure [10% vs 7%, OR 1.85, 95% CI 1.08-3.17]. CONCLUSIONS Patients with PSC-UC were more likely to experience pouchitis and pouch failure than patients with UC alone. The risks of inflammatory complications after IPAA must be weighed against the potential complications with other surgical procedures, and future studies comparing outcomes among these procedures may inform decision making in this population.

Abstract
Objective This systematic review aims to assess the incidence of pouch failure and the correlation between ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (IPAA)-related complications and pouch failure. Background Previous studies demonstrated wide variation in postoperative complication rates following IPAA. Methods A systematic review was performed by searching the MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library databases for studies reporting on pouch failure published from January 1, 2010, to May 6, 2020. A meta-analysis was performed using a random-effects model, and the relationship between pouch-related complications and pouch failure was assessed using Spearman's correlations. Results Thirty studies comprising 22,978 patients were included. Included studies contained heterogenic patient populations, different procedural stages, varying definitions for IPAA-related complications, and different follow-up periods. The pooled pouch failure rate was 7.7% (95% confidence intervals: 5.56-10.59) and 10.3% (95% confidence intervals: 7.24-14.30) for studies with a median follow-up of ≥5 and ≥10 years, respectively. Observed IPAA-related complications were anastomotic leakage (1-17%), pelvic sepsis (2-18%), fistula (1-30%), stricture (1-34%), pouchitis (11-61%), and Crohn's disease of the pouch (0-18%). Pelvic sepsis (r = 0.51, P < 0.05) and fistula (r = 0.63, P < 0.01) were correlated with pouch failure. A sensitivity analysis including studies with a median follow-up of ≥5 years indicated that only fistula was significantly correlated with pouch failure (r = 0.77, P < 0.01). Conclusions The single long-term determinant of pouch failure was pouch fistula, which is a manifestation of a chronic leak. Therefore, all effort should be taken to prevent an acute leak from becoming a chronic leak by early diagnosis and proactive management of the leak. Mini abstract This systematic review aims to assess the incidence of pouch failure and the correlation between IPAA-related complications and pouch failure. Long-term pouch failure was correlated with fistula, suggesting that early septic complications may result in fistula formation during long-term follow-up, leading to an increased risk of pouch failure.

Abstract
PURPOSE Ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (IPAA) has been established as the procedure of choice for patients who require excision of the colon and rectum for familial adenomatous polyposis and ulcerative colitis. The requirement for proximal stomal diversion in IPAA is controversial. OBJECTIVES To compare post-operative outcomes following IPAA with and without proximal diversion. METHODS Computerised literature search, of Ovid MEDLINE and EMBASE. Full-text comparative studies published between 1992 and 2019, in English language and on adult patients. Ileal pouch-anal anastomosis with or without proximal stomal diversion following proctocolectomy. Outcome measures were anastomotic leak, anastomosis strictures, re-operations, pouch failure, intra-abdominal sepsis, small bowel obstruction/ileus and mortality. RESULTS Five hundred and forty-six studies were screened. Fourteen relevant studies included 4973 cases (1832 patients with no stomas vs 3141 with stomas). Anastomotic strictures (p ≤ 0.0001 OR 0.40; 95% CI (0.26-0.62)) and pouch failures (p = 0.003 OR 0.54; 95% CI (0.36-0.82)) were higher in diverted than non-diverted patients. Re-operation was more frequently required in non-diverted patients (p = 0.02 OR 2.51; 95% CI (1.12-5.59)). Heterogeneity was low in 5 out of 7 variables. CONCLUSION In selected patients, diversion-free IPAA is a safe procedure associated with lower anastomotic stricture and pouch failure rates than diverted IPAA. This appears to occur at the expense of a higher re-operation rate. An RCT is required to help define the selection criteria.

Abstract
PURPOSE restorative proctocolectomy with ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (IPAA) is the surgical procedure of choice in some cases of familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) and ulcerative colitis (UC). IPAA allows complete removal of the diseased colon and rectum, however, it is associated with substantial morbidity and potential consequences to patients' quality of life (QoL). AIMS to evaluate the surgical results, functional outcomes and QoL after IPAA; and to examine the impact of surgical complications upon QoL. METHODS we reviewed the records of 55 patients after IPAA, with emphasis on surgical outcomes. Forty patients answered the questionnaires. The Cleveland Global Quality of Life (CGQL), Inflammatory Bowel Disease Questionnaire (IBDQ), and Short Form 36 Health Survey Questionnaire (SF36). RESULTS the average age was 42.1±14.1 years. 63.6% of the patients were male, and 69.1% had FAP. Operative mortality was 1.8% and overall morbidity was 76.4%. Anastomotic leakage was the most frequent early complication (34.5%). Pouchitis (10.8%) and small bowel obstruction (9.1%) were the most common late complications. Patients with UC had the most severe complications (p=0.014). Pelvic complications did not have a negative effect on functional outcomes or QoL scores. Female patients had decreased pouch evacuation frequency, fewer nocturnal bowel movements, decreased bowel symptom impact on QoL (p=0.012), and better CGQL (p=0.04). Patients with better education had better QoL scores, and patients who had their pouches for more than five years scored lower. CONCLUSION the high morbidity has no impact on function or QoL. Bowel function is generally acceptable. QoL is good and affected by sex, education and time interval since IPAA.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although the interaction between gut microbiota and pouchitis after ileal pouch anal anastomosis (IPAA) for ulcerative colitis (UC) has been confirmed, evidence of commensal mycobiota in the etiology of pouchitis is still lacking. This study aimed to investigate the role of fungi in the pathogenesis of pouchitis. METHODS Fecal samples were collected from UC patients with or without pouchitis after IPAA. Experimental pouchitis was induced by 5% dextran sulfate sodium for 7 consecutive days in a rat model of IPAA. Fungal dysbiosis was induced by 0.5% fluconazole (Flu), and commensal fungal recognition through dectin-1 was blocked by 5% laminarin. Fecal fungal composition was analyzed using internal transcribed spacer 2 sequencing. Severity of pouchitis and activation of the CARD9-nuclear factor kappa-B pathway was determined among different groups. RESULTS Patients with pouchitis had a lower alpha (α) diversity in mycobiota composition and a higher abundance of Saccharomyces at the genus level compared with those with a normal pouch. In the rat model of pouchitis, Flu treatment decreased fungal burden but induced fungal dysbiosis, characterized by increased α diversity, a decreased relative abundance of Kazachstania, and increased Polythrincium and Saccharomyces. In addition, Flu treatment worsened dextran sulfate sodium pouchitis, as indicated by increased mortality, weight loss, higher histological score, and CD4+ cell infiltration. Laminarin also increased the severity of pouchitis. In the Flu and laminarin groups, the expression of interferon-γ, tumor necrosis factor-α, CARD9, and phosphorylated nuclear factor kappa-B inhibitor alpha was decreased. CONCLUSIONS Patients with pouchitis had altered fungal composition. Fungal dysbiosis or recognition deficiency by the host may exacerbate experimental pouchitis. Strategies targeting commensal mycobiota may provide therapeutic potential against pouchitis, especially for antibiotic-refractory patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Ileal pouch-anal anastomosis is a common surgical procedure in patients with an initial diagnosis of ulcerative colitis or indeterminate colitis. Tobacco smoking has been associated with protection from onset of ulcerative colitis. Smoking has been reported to be both a protective factor and a risk factor for the development of pouchitis. AIM To examine the influence of smoking on the risk of pouchitis. METHODS We identified 15 studies evaluating smoking as a risk factor for developing pouchitis in ulcerative colitis or indeterminate colitis patients with a history of ileal pouch-anal anastomosis in a systematic search performed from inception through May 4, 2020. A meta-analysis was then performed using a random-effects model to generate risk ratios (RR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI). RESULTS A history of smoking compared with never smoking was not associated with an increased risk of developing pouchitis (RR = 0.94, 95% CI 0.76-1.18, I2 = 73.7%). There was also no significant risk of pouchitis when comparing current smokers vs nonsmokers (RR = 0.93, 95% CI 0.70-1.24, I2 = 78.5%) and former smokers vs nonsmokers (RR = 0.96, 95% CI 0.74-1.23, I2 = 78.5%). CONCLUSIONS Smoking, past or present, is not associated with an increased risk for the development of pouchitis in patients with ulcerative colitis or indeterminate colitis.

Abstract
The ileal pouch anal anastomosis (IPAA) has revolutionised the surgical management of ulcerative colitis (UC) and familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP). Despite refinement in surgical technique(s) and patient selection, IPAA can be associated with significant morbidity. As the IPAA celebrated its 40th anniversary in 2018, this review provides a timely outline of its history, indications, and complications. IPAA has undergone significant modification since 1978. For both UC and FAP, IPAA surgery aims to definitively cure disease and prevent malignant degeneration, while providing adequate continence and avoiding a permanent stoma. The majority of patients experience long-term success, but “early” and “late” complications are recognised. Pelvic sepsis is a common early complication with far-reaching consequences of long-term pouch dysfunction, but prompt intervention (either radiological or surgical) reduces the risk of pouch failure. Even in the absence of sepsis, pouch dysfunction is a long-term complication that may have a myriad of causes. Pouchitis is a common cause that remains incompletely understood and difficult to manage at times. 10% of patients succumb to the diagnosis of pouch failure, which is traditionally associated with the need for pouch excision. This review provides a timely outline of the history, indications, and complications associated with IPAA. Patient selection remains key, and contraindications exist for this surgery. A structured management plan is vital to the successful management of complications following pouch surgery.

Abstract
Background The presence of extraintestinal manifestations may be associated with the development of pouchitis in patients with ulcerative colitis after ileal pouch–anal anastomosis. The aim of this study was to assess this correlation. Methods A systematic literature search was performed using MEDLINE and the Cochrane Library. Studies published in English up to 22 May 2017 investigating the association between extraintestinal manifestations and development of pouchitis in adults with ulcerative colitis were included. Case reports were excluded. The association of extraintestinal manifestations with the development of overall and chronic pouchitis was investigated using a random‐effects model. Results Of 1010 citations identified, 22 observational studies comprising 5128 patients were selected for analysis. The presence of extraintestinal manifestations was significantly associated with both chronic pouchitis (odds ratio 2·28, 95 per cent c.i. 1·57 to 3·32; P = 0·001) and overall pouchitis (odds ratio 1·96, 1·49 to 2·57; P < 0·001). Conclusion The presence of extraintestinal manifestations is associated with development of pouchitis after ileal pouch–anal anastomosis.

Abstract
Familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) is an autosomal dominant genetic disease with a high tendency to develop colorectal cancer. The timing and choice of preventive surgical interventions should be based on the number, size and severity of adenomas, combined with a variety of considerations, in order to effectively prevent cancer and make patients easy to accept. Total proctocolectomy and ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (IPAA) procedure, which could minimize the residual rectal mucosa and reduce the risk of adenoma recurrence, has become the first choice for patients with FAP. Besides, laparoscopic IPAA has obvious advantages such as cosmetic appearance, quick recovery, little adhesion and high pregnancy rate. Patients with FAP should be managed by experienced surgeons working in specialized medical centers in order to get the most reasonable treatment at the best time and achieve long-term effective outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pouchitis occurs in approximately 50% of patients with ulcerative colitis after ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (IPAA) but the pathogenesis remains unclear. We used a rat model of dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced ileal pouchitis to examine whether intestinal barrier disruption plays a role in the development and progression of the disease. METHODS Rats were randomly divided into DSS (underwent IPAA and administered 5% DSS orally), IPAA (underwent IPAA), and Sham groups (underwent switch abdominal surgery). In the DSS group, levofloxacin intervention and nonintervention subgroups were used to determine the influence of antibiotics on intestinal barrier dysfunction. Hematochezia and fecal scores were recorded. Ileum and pouch specimens were obtained for histological assessment. Immunohistochemistry was performed for myeloperoxidase and occludin protein expression. Levels of interleukin-1β (IL-1β), IL-6, IL-10, and tumor necrosis factor α mRNA were detected by real-time PCR. Plasma D-lactate concentrations were determined with colorimetry. RESULTS Only rats in the DSS group experienced hematochezia, and their fecal and histological scores significantly increased (P < 0.01). Compared with the IPAA and Sham groups, levels of myeloperoxidase, IL-1β, IL-6, tumor necrosis factor α, and plasma D-lactate significantly increased, whereas occludin and IL-10 reduced in the DSS group (P < 0.01). The levofloxacin subgroup showed increased occludin expression and more balanced inflammatory cytokine levels than the nonintervention subgroup. All differences showed linear correlations. CONCLUSIONS The intestinal barrier was disrupted in this rat model of pouchitis. Increased proinflammatory and decreased anti-inflammatory factors aggravated the intestinal barrier damage. Antibiotics may ameliorate this process.

Abstract
Acute severe ulcerative colitis (UC) is a highly morbid condition that requires both medical and surgical management through the collaboration of gastroenterologists and colorectal surgeons. First line treatment for patients presenting with acute severe UC consists of intravenous steroids, but those who do not respond require escalation of therapy or emergent colectomy. The mortality of emergent colectomy has declined significantly in recent decades, but due to the morbidity of this procedure, second line agents such as cyclosporine and infliximab have been used as salvage therapy in an attempt to avoid emergent surgery. Unfortunately, protracted medical therapy has led to patients presenting for surgery in a poorer state of health leading to poorer post-operative outcomes. In this era of multiple medical modalities available in the treatment of acute severe UC, physicians must consider the advantages and disadvantages of prolonged medical therapy in an attempt to avoid surgery. Colectomy remains a mainstay in the treatment of severe ulcerative colitis not responsive to corticosteroids and rescue therapy, and timely referral for surgery allows for improved post-operative outcomes with lower risk of sepsis and improved patient survival. Options for reconstructive surgery include three-stage ileal pouch-anal anastomosis or a modified two-stage procedure that can be performed either open or laparoscopically. The numerous avenues of medical and surgical therapy have allowed for great advances in the treatment of patients with UC. In this era of options, it is important to maintain a global view, utilize biologic therapy when indicated, and then maintain an appropriate threshold for surgery. The purpose of this review is to summarize the growing number of medical and surgical options available in the treatment of acute, severe UC.
