This book gives a comprehensive overview of surgery that results in
creating an ileoanal pouch or continent ileostomy. It deals with the
entire journey of pouch surgery starting from patient selection and
counselling to technical tips and tricks and ending in managing pouch
function and failure. Containing a patient experience section this
volume helps clinicians better understand what a patient expects from
the ileoanal pouch.
This is a very specialised topic but one that
is covered very poorly and this book has the potential to consolidate
all that is known about the topic to provide a comprehensive overview on
the surgery and its consequences.
