| Procedimiento quirúrgico durante el cual se une el colon con el ano después de extraer el recto. Se forma un saco (bolsa) en forma de J tomando una sección de 2 a 4 pulgadas del colon para reemplazar la función del recto y almacener las heces hasta que puedan eliminarse. Este procedimiento es similar a la anastomosis coloanal terminolateral, pero se forma un saco más grande. |
