Hi All..I know IRA surgery isn't performed as much as Jpouch , but I still have 10 inches left of sigmoid colon and a current end ileostomy. Last week, I had scopes and was told everything looked great and if I wanted to pursue surgery I should. I saw Dr Remzi in NYC last year and discussed a jpouch , but he never mentioned an IRA which suggests to me that he preferred a jpouch since that's his specialty.. I just recently found out about the sigmoid colon and size. I was wondering if anyone else had IRA surgery and who the surgeon was and how the experience went. Thank you all for any advice, it's very much appreciated as I navigate what I will choose either a jpouch, IRA or keep the ileostomy...thank you
