Permanent temporary Colostomy ileostomy End loop Functional mucus fistula Incontinent continent GI urostomy Classification of Stomas
Anal sphincter failure To “protect” distal anastomosis or when anastomosis not appropriate To reduce disease activity distally Indications for Stoma Formation
Congenital anorectal atresia Surgical removal APER proctocolectomy Destruction by disease Tumour Crohn’s Severe incontinence Anal Sphincter Failure
Post anterior resection Post ileal pouch anal anastomosis Perforated sigmoid diverticulitis Acute fulminant colitis To “protect” distal anastomosis: Anastomosis not appropriate:
To reduce disease activity distally • Severe Crohn’s colitis • Severe perianal Crohn’s disease
Pre-operative Operative Post-operative Stoma management
Pre-operative management • Psychological preparation • Do not frighten inappropriately • Mark site • Avoid scars, skin folds, bony prominences • Consider ability to manage stoma • Brain, eye or hand failure
Consider stoma formation to be like an anastomosis between bowel and skin Healing depends on: Good blood supply No tension General healing ability Surgical technique
End ileostomy End colostomy
Complications of Stoma formation If anything can go wrong it will Captain Edward Murphy 1949
Early complications • Psychological
Early complications • Initial oedema Necrosis Test-tube test at bedside
Stoma not working Ileus Small bowel obstruction Obstruction at abdominal wall Retraction Working too much High output Leaking Poor siting Muco-cutaneous separation Early complications
Stenosis Prolapse Parastomal herniation Intermediate or late complications
Pre-operative care multidisciplinary Meticulous operative technique like an anastomosis between bowel and skin Post-operative care multidisciplinary Summary
