ABSTRACT
The transanal approach to ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (Ta-IPAA) for ulcerative colitis was introduced in 2015 and has since been shown to be a safe and feasible technique, although the impact of this approach on patient function remains unclear. A systematic literature review was performed to identify studies exploring functional outcomes and quality of life after Ta-IPAA. Seven papers were identified, which all demonstrated satisfactory functional outcomes after Ta-IPAA as measured by tools such as Cleveland Global Quality of Life (CGQOL), Oresland Score (OS), Pouch Functional Score (PFS), and Inflammatory Bowel Disease Questionnaire (IBDQ). Many gaps in the literature were identified including paucity of follow-up data beyond the 1-year mark, lack of fertility and fecundity assessment as functional outcomes, and limited evaluation of objective physiologic anal sphincter function. The Ta-IPAA therefore shows promise for good functional results in the short-term, although further research will be required to evaluate the stability of function over time as the technique becomes increasingly integrated into modern surgical practice.
