Colostomy

What is a colostomy?

A colostomy is a surgical procedure in which part of the colon is connected to an opening in the abdominal wall, called a stoma, allowing stool to pass into a collection bag.

When may a colostomy be needed?

A colostomy may be temporary or permanent and may be used for conditions such as colorectal cancer, bowel obstruction, perforation, trauma, inflammatory disease, or other conditions requiring temporary or permanent diversion of the intestinal tract.

Which specialist performs a colostomy?

A colostomy is performed by a colorectal surgeon, coloproctologist, or general surgeon with experience in intestinal surgery. Follow-up may also involve specialists trained in stoma care.
