BACKGROUND: @entity73 is considered a @entity66 in which @entity1 may have delayed @entity356 . The effects of total abdominal colectomy and ileorectal anastomosis on @entity1319 are unknown. The aim of this study was to evaluate @entity356 in @entity1 with @entity73 before and after subtotal colectomy. METHODS: Gastric emptying of a solid meal was studied by scintigraphic technique in 11 @entity1 with @entity73 . The total colonic transit time was more than 72 hours in all @entity1 studied, with delay in transit in all segments of the colon. The @entity356 test was repeated 3 to 6 months after total abdominal colectomy and ileorectal anastomosis in ten of these @entity1 . Before and after surgery, @entity1 filled out a questionnaire to record upper gut symptoms. RESULTS: Solid @entity356 was delayed (T1/2 > upper limit of normal) in 7 of 11 @entity1 with @entity73 . Gastric emptying T1/2 was almost similar before and after surgery. Mean +/- standard deviation was 142 +/- 91 minutes before surgery and 146 +/- 67 minutes after surgery. Symptoms of @entity391 and belching improved significantly after surgery. Symptoms of @entity390 , bloating, and @entity11068 also decreased, but these changes failed to reach statistical significance. CONCLUSION: Despite a reduction in upper gut symptoms, total abdominal colectomy and ileorectal anastomosis does not improve delayed @entity356 in @entity1 with @entity73 .
