- Aims: i] To evaluate the evolution of pregnancies and offspring after inflammatory bowel disease [IBD] surgery during pregnancy; and ii] to describe the indications, the surgical techniques, and the frequency of caesarean section concomitant with surgery.Methods: Patients operated on due to IBD during pregnancy after 1998 were included. Participating clinicians were asked to review their databases to identify cases. Data on patients demographics, IBD characteristics, medical treatments, IBD activity, pregnancy outcomes, surgery, delivery, and foetal and maternal outcomes, were recorded.Results: In all, 44 IBD patients were included, of whom 75% had Crohns disease; 18% of the surgeries were performed in the first trimester, 55% in the second, and 27% in the third trimester. One patient had complications during surgery, and 27% had postsurgical complications. No patient died. Of deliveries, 70% were carried out by caesarean section. There were 40 newborns alive. There were four miscarriages/stillbirths [one in the first, two in the second, and one in the third trimester]; two occurred during surgery, and another two occurred 2 weeks after surgery; 14% of the surgeries during the second trimester and 64% of those in the third trimester ended up with a simultaneous caesarean section or vaginal delivery. Of the 40 newborns, 61% were premature and 47% had low birth weight; 42% of newborns needed hospitalisation [25% in the intensive care unit].Conclusions: IBD surgery during pregnancy remains an extremely serious situation. Therefore, surgical management should be performed in a multidisciplinary team, involving gastroenterologists, colorectal surgeons, obstetricians, and neonatal specialists.

- Background: This analysis of the Observational Postmarketing Ulcerative Colitis Study examined incidence rates of colectomy in patients with ulcerative colitis who received originator infliximab (IFX) or conventional therapies (ConvRx) as per their treating physician. Methods: Cox proportional hazards models compared time to colectomy for both treatment groups. A secondary analysis examined colectomy incidence rates based on IFX exposure timing (defined by a 90-day window after the last IFX dose date). Results: Of 2239 patients with data, 1059 enrolled in IFX and 1180 enrolled in ConvRx (including 296 patients who switched to IFX). Patients in the IFX group had more severe disease at baseline vs the ConvRx group (percentage with baseline partial Mayo score 7-9: 46.0% vs 30.5%, respectively). During 5 years of follow-up, 271 patients (12.1% of enrolled patients) had colectomy. Enrollment in the IFX group was associated with a higher risk of colectomy (hazard ratio = 3.12; 95% confidence interval, 2.25-4.34; P < 0.001) compared with enrollment in the ConvRx group. A total of 174 colectomies occurred in the IFX group, but 97 of these colectomies occurred ≥90 days after the last IFX dose date. Conclusions: Colectomy was reported at a higher rate in the IFX group than in the ConvRx group, although patients in the IFX group had more severe disease at baseline and most of the colectomies occurred after patients had been off of IFX for ≥90 days.
