  • b)Requiring maintenance antibiotic therapy for = 4 weeks to maintain clinical remission and a history of at least two attempts in the last 24 months to stop this therapy, resulting in a relapse of the pouchitis episodes.

Exclusion Criteria

  • 1)Pouchitis due to surgery related conditions (such as an abscess, fistula, or sinus of the pouch).
  • 2)Absence of a previous pelvic MRI to assess secondary causes of pouchitis.
