Background: Ileal pouch anal anastomosis (IPAA) circumferential pouch advancement (CPA) involves full-thickness transanal 180–360° dissection of the distal pouch, allowing the advancement of healthy bowel to cover the internal opening of a vaginal fistula. We aimed to describe the long-term outcomes of this rare procedure. Methods: Patients with IPAA who underwent transanal pouch advancement for any indication between 2009 and 2021 were included. Demographics, operative details, and outcomes were reviewed. An early fistula was defined as occurring within 1 year of IPAA construction. Clinical success was defined as resolution of symptoms necessitating CPA, pouch retention, and no stoma at the time of follow-up. Figures represent the median (interquartile range) or frequency (%). Results: Over a 12-year period, nine patients were identified; the median age at CPA was 41 (36–44) years. Four patients developed early fistula after index IPAA, and five developed late fistulae. The median number of fistula repair procedures prior to CPA was 2 (1–2). All patients were diagnosed with ulcerative colitis at the time of IPAA and all late patients were re-diagnosed with Crohn's disease. Four (44.4%) patients had ileostomies present at the time of surgery, three (33.3%) had one constructed during surgery, and two (22.2%) never had a stoma. The median follow-up time was 11 (6–24) months. Clinical success was achieved in four of the nine (44.4%) patients at the time of the last follow-up. Conclusions: Transanal circumferential pouch advancement was an effective treatment for refractory pouch vaginal fistulas and may be offered to patients who have had previous attempts at repair.
