Adenocarcinoma of the ileal pouch mucosa: case report and literature review

Abstract: The risk of developing ileal pouch mucosa adenocarcinoma appears low. However, increasing reports of these cancers are concerning as most patients present with advanced disease after many years. Patients with a previous history of dysplasia/cancer may be at increased risk. We believe surveillance after IPAA should include the anal transition zone and the ileal pouch mucosa. The establishment of expert consensus guidelines on pouch surveillance should be considered in the near future.

“…Ravitch gave the first description of adenocarcinoma of the pouch, per se, following RPC for UC in 1984 [69]. Thirteen case reports have been published since then [70][71][72][73][74][75][76][77][78][79][80][81][82]. The main cohorts reported on are summarised in Table 2.…”

“…Pouch cancer has been described mainly in case reports. A recent review of the literature identified 20 publications containing 26 cases in addition to their own. Almost all cancers were very early stage and the mean time from pouch creation to adenocarcinoma was 8.9 years (see later for surveillance).…”

“…Molecular biological changes as genetic factors for developing cancer are known to be progressive gene alteration between genes and repressive changes of cancer [5]. In other words, when the cancer gene is activated or the cancer suppressor gene is inactivated, the balance between them is lost and abnormal cell growth is promoted, resulting in cancer [6]. Loss of heterozygosity, analysis relies on the assessment of polymorphic markers, such as microsatellites.…”
