Abstract

About 1 in 10 patients with internal pouch ileostomies may develop incontinence. Of 4 incontinent patients in this study, operative endoscopy has restored continence in 2 and has markedly improved symptoms in a third. Foreign bodies retained within the ileostomy pouch may be successfully removed endoscopically. All patients with an incontinent Kock ileostomy pouch should be endoscoped for adequate assessment and treatment.
