CRUCIAL Insights From a Decade Long Retrospective National Audit of Total Abdominal Colectomy Outcomes for Ulcerative Colitis
This national audit demonstrates low mortality and acceptable morbidity following TAC for UC, with increasing use of laparoscopy over time. The robust, diagnosis-validated data support international standards of care and highlights key predictors of postoperative complications in this population. It identifies elderly, immunosuppressed patients requiring emergency open surgery as the highest risk patient subgroup.
