Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The objective of this study was to compare the functional and surgical results of the J-pouch with those of the side-to-end anastomosis and their impact on quality of life.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Invalidating anorectal dysfunctions are common after restorative rectal surgery. Improvement of functional results by the technically more demanding J-pouch has been demonstrated in comparison with the straight coloanal anastomosis. In the present multicenter randomized trial we assessed whether the J-pouch is also superior to the side-to-end coloanal anastomosis.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

j-pouch coloanal anastomosis

although a j-pouch coloanal anastomosis is a common type of anastomosis, a comparison with the side-to-end has not been made.

Group Type OTHER

j-pouch coloanal anastomosis

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

side-to-end coloanal anastomosis

in the Netherlands, the side-to-end anastomosis is the standard procedure to perform an anastomosis in case of rectal resection. therefore, the side-to-end group was our control group

Group Type OTHER

side-to-end coloanal anastomosis
