New anastomosis following Transvaal mucosectomy, significantly improved polyp burden in pouchoscopy report from 10-10-24

Len78Member

I am pleased to announce my new anastomosis had 3 1cm polyps removed after 6 months since tamis trans anal mucosectomy with ileal pouch advancement anot nothing more.

i hope to continue 6 months scopes even though the polyp burden is much improved

Dr wrote 6 to 12 month intervals on my report after pouchoscopy for future scopes

what a difference a mucosectomy can make for fap folk or anyone at high risk for problems due to a retained rectal cuff which I no longer have since 4/17/24

there is hope out there!

I agree completely Jan!!! Yes cautious and vigilant are the right words!!

im relieved but face gastrectomy total

any idea on bowel transit time when my entire stomach gets removed? Surgeon doesn’t have an answer. Same surgeon that did my trans anal mucosectomy via TAMIS on 4/17/24 at fox chase cancer center

obviously it won’t be 3 hours from mouth to expelling and there’s dumping syndrome to factor in

thanks always for your wisdom !!
