title: [Current approaches in surgical treatment of ulcerative colitis (reports of our results)].
abstract: The results of surgical treatment of ulcerative colitis in 19 patients in the period from 1989 to 1997 are presented. Of surgical techniques, in 17 patients a pouch was formed, namely, in six patients W pouch, in four patients S pouch, and in seven patients J pouch, while in two patients the pouch was not formed due to the incontinence of anal sphincter. In these patients the stool derivation was achieved by permanent terminal ileostomy. Fifteen patients were operated in elective program, while in four patients emergency surgery was indicated. In emergency surgery the first step was subtotal colectomy, with ileostomy and sigmoidostomy. In further treatment we introduced corticosteroid clyster in the opening of sigmoidostoma, with good results. The quality of life of persons with the pouch is higher compared to patients with permanent ileostomy. In patients who require surgical treatment of ulcerative colitis, the operation of forming an ileal pouch and anal anastomosis should be done.
