A member asked:
Ileoproctostomy - can the distal ileum b atached 2 the remaing small colon instead of remaing rectum? if theres no large, can small b atached 2 rectum

Yes : A small bowel could be attached to any large vowel even if the part of the large vowel remain is only the rectum . Yes as long as you have 5 cm of the large vowel still exist another small or large bowel could be attached to it

Can't tell: Without the previous op report /path report. I would venture to say you will get the best bowel control from an ileoprotostomy utilizing a continent pouch that you intubate daily
