I had the same problem about 4 years ago or so. They went in using the same site that they used for my radical cystectomy. As they also had to do a repair to my Indiana pouch. I really can not tell you how long you should be looking at for recovery or hospitalization. I do know of cases where they have been able to do blockages using minimally invasive procedures. I am sorry I did not answer you sooner but I did not see this until now. Good luck and please let us know how things are going.
