There is a difference of opinion concerning the role of ileal pouch-anal anastomosis in Crohn's disease, even in the absence of small-bowel or perianal disease. One view is that ileal pouch-anal anastomosis should never be entertained, the other is that ileal pouch-anal anastomosis, like ileoproctostomy, can be justified sometimes, because it allows young people a period of stoma-free life. The aim of this study was to examine the outcome of ileal pouch-anal anastomosis and to contrast it with ileoproctostomy in patients with Crohn's disease without small-bowel or perianal disease.
