DEFINITION AND FREQUENCY: An ileoanal anastomosis with creation of an ideal pouch is proposed as the treatment for familial adenomatous polyposis and ulcerative hemorrhagic rectocolitis. The ideal pouch may become inflammatory in 10 to 30% of the cases. The diagnosis of pouchitis is based on a clinical, endoscopid and histological criteria. Pouchitis is a late complication, mainly after ileoanal anastomosis for ulcerative rectocolitis. The pathogenic mechanism is a subject of debate. Fecal stasis, bacterial pollution, mucine secretion and the underlying inflammatory disease could be involved. METHODS Antibiotics active against anaerobic bacteria, such as metronidazole, are generally given. In case of failure, common antiinflammatory agents used in inflammatory bowel disease are indicated.

D000894 Anti-Inflammatory Agents, Non-Steroidal Anti-inflammatory agents that are non-steroidal in nature. In addition to anti-inflammatory actions, they have analgesic, antipyretic, and platelet-inhibitory actions. They act by blocking the synthesis of prostaglandins by inhibiting cyclooxygenase, which converts arachidonic acid to cyclic endoperoxides, precursors of prostaglandins. Inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis accounts for their analgesic, antipyretic, and platelet-inhibitory actions; other mechanisms may contribute to their anti-inflammatory effects.
