Abstract Background Very early-onset inflammatory bowel disease (VEOIBD) with interleukin-10 (IL10R) signaling deficiency usually requires enterostomy in patients who are refractory to traditional treatment. This study aimed to evaluate long-term outcomes after enterostomy for VEOIBD patients with IL10R signaling deficiency. Methods The medical records of all patients undergoing enterostomy for signaling deficiency were retrospectively assessed during 2012.1–2022.7 in a tertiary teaching hospital, Children’s Hospital of Fudan University, Shanghai, China. Data on disease history, diagnosis and details of enterostomy and stoma closure and follow-up were collected. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to evaluate the risk factors associated with the long-term outcome of delayed stoma closure. Results A total of 46 patients underwent an enterostomy, 19 who required emergency enterostomy and 27 with selective enterostomy. After ten years of follow-up, 35 patients underwent hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), and 25 patients were alive after HSCT. The median timeframe between HSCT and stoma closure was 19.6 [15.9,26.2] months. Nineteen patients underwent stoma closure and had an average age of 3.9 ± 1.5 years; 6 patients were waiting for stoma closure. Based on a univariate logistic model, risk factors significantly associated with late stoma closure were age at enterostomy and age at HSCT. However, multivariate logistic regression showed no statistically significant factor associated with late stoma closure. There was no significant difference between the stoma closure group and delay closure group in the z scores of weight for age at follow up. Conclusions This study determined the long-term outcomes after enterostomy for VEOIBD with interleukin-10 signaling deficiency. The appropriate time point of enterostomy and HSCT may improve quality of life in the long term.
