Hi Lili,

I am sorry to hear that you are faced with this decision. You have come to the right place for information and caring people.

At the age of 63, and after 20 years of active colitis, I started getting high grade dysplastic lesions in my rectum. At that point my GI told me that’s it; colectomy and jpouch.

you don’t state what type of dysplasia you have or it’s location. Depending on that and other factors, plus your care teams recommendation, you will be able to make a decision that is best for you.

I advise to read, read, and read some more. Don’t rush any decision and choose surgical options and surgeons wisely.

good luck and please return here as often as needed for follow up questions

eric
