Reply to "J pouch deterioration"

I didn't need any extra small intestine for my j-pouch creation nor did I have ulcerated and removed small intestine either.  My j-pouch problems were mainly at the base although I had  chronic pouchitis. I also requested that the perm stoma location be lower in my abdomen than up by the waist line.  My perm is a little lower in my abdomen than my temp ileo was and on the other side.   I'm not sure were I've read about this at but believe it is the case for other's that have needed to have their j-pouches removed. It's a good question for people to ask their surgeons.
