Studies of the effect of surgery on @entity851 in adolescents with @entity30 have revealed conflicting data. To better determine the role of surgery for growth delay, growth data from 26 @entity1 with @entity30 with intestinal resections and/or ileostomies were reviewed, 3 of whom had surgery twice. Operations were performed on 14 Tanner Stage I, 1 Tanner II, 1 Tanner III, and 13 Tanner IV or V @entity1 . In the prepubertal group, 13 of the 14 had growth impairment, only one of whom had surgery primarily for that @entity851 . One year after operation, 11 of 13 Tanner @entity851 @entity1 experienced an increase in height velocity of 5.38 +/- 1.18 cm/yr (mean +/- @entity17875 less than 0.01); 9/11 achieved normal height velocity for Tanner I. Two attained their preillness height percentiles at one year follow-up, while 5 @entity1 attained their preillness height percentiles 2.5 to 10 years following surgery. Of the four who failed to achieve normal height velocity, 3 had early recurrence of active disease. The Tanner Stage II and III @entity1 both had @entity851 , and both had a growth spurt following surgery. Of those who were Tanner Stage IV or V at the time of surgery, 5 of 13 had @entity851 . Following surgery, none had an increase in height velocity. These data suggest that when @entity1 with @entity30 and @entity851 are prepubertal and surgery is performed primarily because of failure of medical therapy and/or other complications, a postoperative growth spurt may be expected within one year.
