✦ Synopsis

while in every fifth case the unsuccessful therapeutic response leads to the removal of the reservoir.

There is little information, some case reports, about the beneficial effect of TNF-␣ blockage in pouchitis, although the next logical therapeutic step is the use of biologics in the refractory patients. According to our case, anti-TNF-␣ therapy may be used to induce and maintain remission in chronic, severe pouchitis and in its extraintestinal manifestations
