Ileoanal Anastomosis (J-Pouch) Surgery is a restorative procedure used to remove the diseased colon and rectum while creating a new pathway for stool elimination. During the procedure, the end of the small intestine is formed into a pouch, commonly shaped like the letter “J,” and connected to the anus. This allows bowel movements to occur through the natural route and may eliminate the need for a permanent ileostomy in appropriately selected patients.

Ileoanal Anastomosis (J-Pouch) Surgery works by creating a reservoir from the terminal ileum after removal of the colon and rectum. The newly formed pouch is connected to the anus, allowing stool to pass through the natural bowel outlet. Depending on the patient's condition and surgical plan, a temporary diverting ileostomy may be created to protect the newly constructed pouch while it heals and may later be reversed.
