Planned Ileoanal Pouches for Crohn’s disease:Conclusions • Pre-operative diagnosis of Crohn’s disease increases postoperative complications • Pouch fistula • Pelvic sepsis • Pouch failure! • Multivariate analysis controlling for other variables likewise predict pre-op Crohn’s disease as predictor of increased pouch failure rate • Increased incidence of poor outcomes in Crohn’s disease pouches are more common even in the most experienced centers
