Reply to "K-Pouch Mucosal Prolapse"

Hi Evox

What do you mean by more tissue showing? Does the stoma look bigger or does it look like there is a toungue sticking out? Or are there white bumps on the pink stoma? Granulation?

I am not quite sure of what I am about to say but I do not think that the inside of the small intestine creates scar tissue ...I know that the abdominal cavity creates scar tissue (adhesions) around the sites that have been been cut or manipulated but I don't remember hearing about it happening inside of the intestines and your stoma is made out of your small intestine.

When a surgeon tells me that he needs to do an outpatient procedure I rarely worry...it means that he is not going to do surgery to me but do something small...

I do not think that he would do anything to compromise the continence of your valve or the integrity of your pouch.

Please let us know, I am very interested in how you are doing.

Sharon
