When performing an ileostomy reversal surgery, can a surgeon use extra anul to make up for lack of intestines?

Clarification: I referred your question to a surgeon because I was not sure what you meant by "anul". If you mean anorectal tissue, the answer is probably yes. Please rephrase your question if this is not what you meant. Tks.
