Endorectal ileoanal pull-through offers an attractive alternative to proctocolectomy and ileostomy for patients with ulcerative colitis, Gardner syndrome, and familial polyposis. To our knowledge, a careful radiographic analysis of the ileum, ileal pouch, and ileoanal anastomosis after ileoanal pull-through has not been reported. Thirty-two patients with ulcerative colitis, Gardner syndrome, and familial polyposis underwent colectomy, mucosal proctectomy, and endorectal ileoanal pull-through of a 15-cm ileal "J" pouch and loop ileostomy. Twenty-five (78%) of 32 of all the pouches radiographically demonstrated spiral folds extending from the middle of the pouch to the pectinate line. Other radiographic features included a mesenteric mass effect, pseudopolyps, and a central lucency that indicated intrapouch sutures. Radiographs provide useful information in the postoperative management of the ileal pull-through.
