Long-term follow-up of
strictureplasty in Crohn's disease.
Depending on patient's general condition, severity of disease, and the involvement of intestinal segments, surgical treatment of CD may include ileocecal resection, subtotal colectomy with ileorectal anastomosis, total proctocolectomy, segmental small bowel resection, and
strictureplasty (5).
(1) The anastomosis itself, being constructed in a transverse fashion, similar to a
strictureplasty, creates a large lumen
8 days postoperatively the patient deteriorated due to a leak from the site of previous
strictureplasty and surgical resection of a segment of small bowel was performed with formation of a defunctioning ileostomy.
Patients with intestinal obstruction require laparotomy with
strictureplasty or segmental bowel resection.
The surgical procedures performed included resection and anastomosis or
strictureplasty. Either right hemicolectomy or limited ileocecal resection and ileo-ascending anastomosis for ileocecal mass.
(v) undoing ligation and
strictureplasty with a T-tube splint if CBD ligation is discovered early;

strictureplasty versus resection anastomosis.
Comparison between
Strictureplasty and Resection Anastomosis in Tuberculous Intestinal Strictures.
Objective: To assess the efficacy of
strictureplasty for tuberculous stricture of small intestine.
More than 34% of patients also said they had undergone
strictureplasty ( stretching of the damaged bowel ( or had sections removed.
