ROSE question

I had my EGD yesterday in Richmond, VA to see if I qualify as a canidate for the ROSE procedure study.   The doctor said my pouch was big and my stoma was normal size and that he would have to check the criteria for the study.  Does anyone know if the stoma and pouch both have to be enlarged in order to be a part of the study?  Thanks, Molly

I had my Endoscopy on Friday and neither my pouch or stoma were enlarged. Some part after that was. But the Dr. report stated I was "not a good candidate for the Rose" Hopefully something might be different for study criteria for you.

Good Luck.
