title: [Morpho-functional radiologic evaluation of ileal reservoirs].
abstract: Nine patients (4 males and 5 females) have been treated by proctocolectomy with ileal pouch "reservoir". Defecography has been performed. Five patients have been examined by defecography before and four after closure of a loop ileostomy performed to cover healing of the pouch and ileoanal anastomoses. Pouch's evacuation is often inadequate in "S" shaped reservoir (Parks), but postoperative complications are infrequent. Pouch's evacuation is often total in "J" shaped reservoir (Utsunomiya), but post-operative complications are possible.
