Reply to "J Pouch Tip leak"

as far as the pouch revision, I am told Dr Remzi tries his very hardest to save any existing intestine, so he will try to fix but if he does not feel good about it, he will create new pouch from fresh intestine. I am scared to death, just from the ecoli infection and 10 weeks in hospital and almost dying from first surgery in 2008. I know this time it will be different but still scared.

I have never heard a surgeon saying up front that a jpouch should only be expected to last 10 years though???? anyone else hear that??
