ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the postoperative complication and nursing experience of hand-assisted laparoscopic J-type ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (IPAA) in familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP). Methods A total of 36 patients with FAP who had undergone hand-assisted laparoscopic J-type ileal pouch- anal anastomosis (IPAA) were analyzed retrospectively. Results The postoperative complication included ileal pouch bleeding in 2 cases, urinary retention in 3 female patients, external hemorrhoids swelling in 3 cases, and anastomotic fistula in 2 cases. Six cases had ileum pouch inflammation during the postoperative follow- up. All the complications were relieved after conservative medical therapy. Conclusions IPAA operation puts forward high technical requirements with more postoperative complications. Therefore, it is important to strengthen nursing of the patients, reduce postoperative complication and increase quality of life of FAP.
