    • Surgical intervention is considered for refractory UC cases.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To review the available operative options for ulcerative colitis treatment.
    • To discuss the advantages and disadvantages of each surgical approach.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of current surgical literature and techniques for ulcerative colitis.
    • Analysis of five distinct operative strategies.

    Main Results:

    • Five primary surgical options are available: proctocolectomy with ileostomy, abdominal colectomy with ileostomy and rectal retention, abdominal colectomy with ileorectal anastomosis, proctocolectomy with continent stoma creation/conversion, and restorative proctocolectomy.
