Unexplained systemic inflammatory response following ileostomy closure after ileal pouch-anal anastomosis: a deeper dive into a rare entity

ConclusionsWhile SBO remains the most common complication following ileostomy closure, a surprisingly large number of presents present with a SIRS response with no identifiable source. All of these patients recovered with supportive care, and none required further intervention or diversion. This is a poorly understood phenomenon which is unique to ileostomy closure after IPAA, and further study is required.Trial Registration
