Data on patient demographics, surgical details, and postoperative outcomes were collected and compared across the three surgical approaches. Pouch failure was defined as the need for pouch excision or a diverting loop ileostomy.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>In all, 401 patients underwent IPAA with either an open (149, 37.2%), robotic (145, 36.2%), or laparoscopic (107, 26.7%) technique. The overall rate of pouch failure was 6.5% and did not differ significantly between the three surgical approaches. Compared with laparoscopy, robotic IPAA was associated with a lower conversion rate to open surgery (1.4 versus 17.8%; P &amp;lt; 0.0001) and fewer 30-day readmissions (15.9% versus 28.0%; P = 0.02). However, robotic and laparoscopic IPAA approaches had higher rates of venous thromboembolism\/pulmonary embolism and readmission than the open approach. Pouchitis was the most common cause of pouch failure across all surgical techniques.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>Robotic IPAA had lower conversion and reduced 30-day admission rates compared with a laparoscopic approach. However, open surgery had lower rates of 30-day readmission and rates thromboembolism than robotic IPAA. The surgical approach itself does not appear to significantly impact long-term pouch failure rates.<\/jats:p>\n
