Abstract
Total colectomy, mucosal proctectomy, and ileoanal endorectal anastomosis have been successful in 17 of 19 children with chronic ulcerative colitis. No significant complications were encountered in our recent 9 cases. The technique of the operation as it is now performed in our institution is described.
