Pouchitis after IPAA in ulcerative colitis
Q) Which of the following is Not a risk factor for pouchitis post IPAA in ULcerative colitis
A) Smoking
B ) NSAIDs use post op
C) Elderly patients
D) UC with extra intestinal manifestation
Ans a
Pouchitis is the complication of Ileal Pouch Anal Anastomosis (IPAA) for Ulcerative colitis. The incidence of pochitis for the same proedure for familial Adenomatous polyposis is less than 10% but for ulcerative colitis can go as high as 50%.
Risk factors for development of pouchitis are
- Previous extra intestinal manifestations of IBD especially arthritis
- ANCA positive cases of UC
- NOD2insC positive patients
- Smoking prevents the development of puchitis after IPAA in ulcerative colitis.
5. Other reported factors that may associate with pouchitis include extent of UC, thrombocytosis,and PPI use with NSAId

a) VBG produces less weight loss when compared to RYGB
b) Jejuno-ileal by-pass not done nowadays.
c) Dumping is due to non- compliance of dietary advice
d) LAGB requires once a 4-6wk follow up
Answer (free)
c
Calorie restriction is responsible for long term weight loss and its beneficial effects such as control of diabetes, dyslipidemia, hypertension and other metabolic abnormalities.
Restrictive procedures are LSG and LAGB which decrease the appetite and induce early satiety.
The RYGB (ROUX en Y gastric bypass ) is a malabsorptive procedure with long term sustained weight loss.
Mechanism of weight loss after bariatric surgery
Ghrelin is orexigenic gut hormone, which increases appetite. After food intake ghrelin levels fall and appetite decreases.
After restrictive surgery such as LYGB and LSG, ghrelin levels fall and appetite decreases.
Vertical Banded Gastroplasty (VBG) This procedure has been abandoned in favor of other operations because of poor long-term weight loss, a high rate of late stenosis of the gastric outlet, and a tendency for patients to adopt a highcalorie liquid diet, thereby leading to regain of weight. Choice a is correct
Suturing in vascular anastomosis
Q) True about suturing technique in vascular anastomosis
a) Anastomosis may not be completely water tight
b) To prevent intimal injury needle should be moved from with in to out
c) 4-0 suture is preferred for aorta
d) Any bio degradable suture which is monofilament can be used
Answer
b
Vessels should always be sewn with the needle moving from within to without on the downstream edge of the vessel to avoid creating an intimal flap and to fix any atherosclerotic plaque.
Tip of the needle should be at right angle to the intima and curve of the needle should be followed
Distal clamp is released first
Non absorbable sutures should be used
2-0 should be used for aorta 4-0 for femoral and 6-0 for popliteal
Only non absorbable monofilament sutures are used in vascular anastomosis
