Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Eighty-three patients underwent colectomy and ileorectal anastomosis for Crohn's disease of the large bowel. There were two postoperative deaths and seven anastomotic leaks. Fifty-two patients retained a functioning anastomosis with a mean follow-up of 8 years. Forty had an excellent or good functional result. The cumulative proportion of patients with a functioning ileorectal anastomosis was 77 and 63 per cent at 5 and 10 years respectively. Patients presenting with perforating Crohn's disease had a significantly increased risk of failure of the anastomosis. Perianal Crohn's disease following ileorectal anastomosis was significantly related to the need to defunction or excise the rectum.
