| Core Tip |
Restorative proctocolectomy with ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (RP-IPAA) is the preferred surgical treat-ment for ulcerative colitis. However, despite the wide-spread use of RP-IPAA, many aspects of this treatment still remain controversial, such as the approach (open or laparoscopic), number of stages of surgery, type of pouch, and type of construction (e.g., hand-sewn or stapled ileal pouch-anal anastomosis). Few large, randomized, controlled studies have been conducted, which limits the conclusions that can be drawn regarding controversial issues associated with RP-IPAA. It is suggested that prospective, randomized studies should be conducted in the future to compare the frequency of post-operative complications, cosmetic results, short- and long-term functional outcomes, and quality of life associated with the available techniques of RT-IPAA for the treatment of ulcerative colitis.
