Abstract

Ileocolic resection (ICR) is performed for Crohn's disease (CD) patients with terminal ileitis requiring surgery. Current National Surgical Quality Improvement Program (NSQIP) data is lacking specificity around IBD surgery, including stoma formation and biologic therapies. The NSQIP IBD Collaborative (NSQIP-IBD) is a multicenter working group formed to better collect and analyze perioperative data unique to IBD patients under the auspices of NSQIP. We present retrospective analysis of a multicenter cohort of ICR for CD to describe the current practice of ICR for CD across our collaborative and explore factors associated with rates of postoperative complications on behalf of NSQIP-IBD.
