• Recurrent attacks – 20%
• Subtotal colectomy – 100% mortality
– Pre-op D – 46%

• Major GI complications- high mortality
• Surgical decisions - complex
– Cardiac surgery: scope: stool cultures
Imuno-compromised patients
• Cytomegalovirus infection
– Refractory colitis
– 30% (16/47) infected
– 8/12 responded to treatment
Wada 2003
• Immunosuppressed IBD
– 23/23 colitis
– 0/10 CRC
– 21/23 early a’gen +ve
• Mimics PMC
Rahbar 2003
Olfinlade 2001
Study of CMV/PMC in acute colitis required
Medical Management
developments
• The Oxford criteria
– the five day rule
Truelove @ Jewell 1974
• Azathioprine
– maintenance of remission
• Cyclosporin
– induction of remission
McCormack G 2002
VanAssche G 2003
Medical Management
challenges
• Uncertain end points
• Masked sepsis
• Late relapse
– immunosuppression
Mallant-Hent 2003
Surgical Issue
• UC - fragile colon
• Crohn’s - loss of planes
• Rectal stump(ed)
Surgical Issue
• UC - fragile colon
• Crohn’s - loss of planes
• Rectal stump(ed)
Surgical Developments
• One stage reconstruction
– cyclosporin
• Laparoscopy
Hyde GM 2001
Hurley BW 2002
Marcello PW 2001
- interval procedure
• Reconstruction in Crohn’s disease?
New Challenges?
• Team management
– MDM
– Shared care
– Mixed wards
Truelove @ Jewell 1974
Patterns of Disease
non-IBD
• Broad spectrum antibiotics
– pseudomembranous colitis
• Multisystem disease
– ischaemic colitis
• Immune-compromised
– viral infections
– multifactorial disease
Clostridium Difficile
• 2,000 cases over 10 years
• 64 colectomies
• incidence rising
– 0.6 - 1.2%
• life threatening cases also doubled
– 3%
