Long-term Results of the Side-to-side Isoperistaltic Strictureplasty in Crohn Disease: 25-year Follow-up and Outcomes

Conclusions: SSIS is a safe, effective, and durable strictureplasty in patients with extensive fibrostenosing CD of the small bowel. Half the surgical recurrences on SSIS can be managed by subsequent revision or strictureplasty. The majority of patients maintain the original SSIS after a median follow-up of 11 years.
