| Popis: |
A total colectomy and a mucosal proctectomy with ileo-anal anastomosis (c-mp-iaa) effectively removes all debilitating, potentially malignant colonic mucosa. Preservation of the anorectal sphincter predictably results in good to excellent anal continence with a low mortality and acceptable morbidity. Since 1983 at the University Hospital of the West Indies (U.H.W.I.), Jamaica, five (5) patients have undergone c-mp-iaa for colonic mucosal disease. All have good to excellent anal continence with an average of 2-6 continent, formed stools per day. There were no operative deaths. The five (5) cases are described and a plea is made for the earlier use of this definitive surgical procedure where indicated. |
