Malnutrition Associated With Complications After Ileostomy Reversal

Completed

Conditions studied: Inflammatory Bowel Diseases, Ileostomy

In brief

An ileostomy is a surgical opening established by bringing the end or a loop of the ileum to discharge directly outside the body. This is typically done when part or the entire colon is removed because of IBD, cancer, or familial adenomatous polyposis. Reversal of this procedure, an ileostomy closure, may be done if possible. Ileostomy closure involves reconnecting the ileum to the remaining colon, allowing normal bowel movements again. This study will look at the outcomes of these surgeries in patients who were seen and operated on by the investigators.
