Hi
it looks like May need to have my Jpouch removed or at least change loop to end just waiting for MRI results.
Jpouch/butt Has been a problem Since it was created
I’m still not connect so I still have the loop. Options Being suggested are to go to an end ileostomy, leave pouch, Or go to end ileostomy and Barbie butt. My question is has anyone had any of those two options done laparoscopically? The reason is my first surgery to remove colon and have an end was done laparoscopically and I had no issues. Waited the year to have a Jpouch done, have an incision that was done low hip to hip, now they say they will cut straight down from my belly button “because that is the way he does it” and I understand that but if I didn’t have to have an incision like that I would rather not. I was in the hospital for 35 days when the Jpouch was created due to ileus On and off. Bowels would start then stop. It was major. Surgeon said likely that will happen again and I just don’t want to do it that way if there is others who have had surgeons perform either one of these surgery’s laparoscopically?
thanks
