Case description

Several short and long-term studies have demonstrated the early functional superiority of pouch-anal over straight anastomosis. Pouch construction does not compromise anal physiological parameters. It is recommended the pouch be constructed from a length of descending colon and be small (5 cm) in size to adequately act as a neo-rectum.
