I believe that the Rose procedure is in research trials on the East Coast.  I know of only one procedure that supposedly reduces a patient's pouch, and that is the StomaphX (pronounced "stoma-fix").  I am not aware of any insurer covering this procedure.

The only two Oregon surgeons that I am aware of who are trained in the StomaphX are:  Dr. Robert O'Rourke at OHSU and Dr. Emma Patterson at the Legacy OWLS.
