Paediatric Ulcerative Colitis Surgery: Italian Survey

Abstract: This study shows that there is general consensus regarding indications for surgery. The ideal surgical technique remains under debate. Laparoscopy is a procedure widely adopted for colectomy but its use in reconstructive surgery remains limited. Longer follow-up must be planned to define the quality of life of these patients.

“…In the Mayo Clinic's systematic review (2412 UC/268 FAP), < 30-day short-term IPAA postoperative complication rates were low and long-term functional outcomes were good, with an overall pouch failure rate of 8% (95% CI 6-12%-median follow-up 109 months), highlighting the safety of this operation in pediatric patients [76]. Although pouchitis is more likely to occur in the pediatric population (related to a younger age at diagnosis), the majority has good long-term functional outcomes with regard to stool frequency [77,78].…”

“…9,10 Surgery is an unavoidable method for patients presented no response to medications or with identified colorectal neoplasm. 5,6 Colectomy, as a paradigm surgery for UC, severely affects the patients' quality of life. 3 No general validated definition has been identified for treatment failures (TFs) in UC patients.…”
