This study was undertaken to determine whether reversed terminal ileal segments can be used to decrease ileostomy output in patients who have undergone total proctocolectomy and ileostomy for ulcerative colitis or familial adenomatous polyposis.An approximately 25-cm length of terminal ileum was reversed in an antiperistaltic manner, and the new terminal ileal end was used for the ileostomy constructed in the usual manner. Six patients underwent this procedure and were compared with six patients who had conventional total proctocolectomy and ileostomy. Variables studied included weight of ileostomy output and the weight of the filtered fluid component. Data were obtained on seven different occasions during a two-month period beginning three months after the operation. Analysis was done using Student's t -test.There was a statistically significant decrease in the weight of the average 24-hour ileostomy effluent in those patients undergoing reversed antiperistaltic loop procedures. There was also a statistically significant decrease in the filterable liquid proportions.The antiperistaltic ileostomy is effective in reducing the daily amount of ileostomy effluent and facilitates stoma care, owing to its diminished liquid component.
