Total colectomy with rectal mucosectomy and ileoanal anastomosis has been utilized as a sphincter-saving operation in young people with chronic ulcerative colitis. From 1977 to 1979, our section of pediatric surgery performed this procedure on 12 children and young adults with chronic ulcerative colitis, with encouraging results. All patients are alive and well, and all have had excellent rectal continence. Follow-up ranges from 7 to 27 months. Eight patients describe an excellent result, two have had a fair result, and two have required a temporary ileostomy. Numerous loose stools have been observed early, but stools become formed by diet and medical management, and early return to school and work has been possible. The number of stools continues to decrease for at least 1 year.
