So when one with FAP like myself who Has had polyps at the anastomosis, as I did  and undergoes on 4/17/24 a mucosectomy via TAMIS dies this procedure remove the anastomosis polyps when my surgeon also moved the pouch down lower in anal canal and them had sew the pouch to anus?

So does removing the anal transitional zone /atz take away the polyps not just the cuff with associated polyps which was done during 4/17/24 mucosectomy

i know my cuff was extra long the stump  was 5cm as per surgeons pathology report but id like to know during mucosectomy transanally if the anastomosis polyps were addressed where surgeon lowered the pouch in anal canal as moved it ti had sew it

Do I still have the anastomosis polyps if the surgeon cut out the rectal cuff using Tami’s minimally invasive surgery thru the butthole

my next pouchoscopy and first one since rectum removal/mucosectomy is 10/10/24

I’m 6 mo post transanal mucosectomy on October 17th foorthcoming

my pouch will be 23 years old

i was told with age of pouch can come increased polyp burden

thanks for at feedback in advance

Hi Scott,

thank you very much . So with my pouch having been moved she hand sewn I have a new anastomosis being the atz was removed with the associated length 5 cm cuff.

I’ve always had polyps in my jpouch but I’m sure if surgeon felt negative about saving my pouch and the mucosectomy itself he wouldn’t have persued it in the 1st place

i don’t at an ostomy there’s no more tinkering with the pouch after this but the procedure first take away te jpouch polyps what I had done

thanks and I think of you as a high value to the site offering your wisdom. Knowledge from personal experience and clarifying for everyone.

thank you again,
