Restorative proctocolectomy with ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (IPAA) has become a standard of care in patients with ulcerative colitis (UC). Nephrolithiasis is common in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), but has never been studied as a complication of IPAA. We aimed to assess the risk factors for nephrolithiasis in patients with IPAA.
