we report a case of a 75 years old male diagnosed on 2006 with a low rectal cancer and operated with an abdominoperineal resection procedure at that time. Since then, he was doing fine with his end colostomy until 29/07/2011, when he was presented with stoma site redness, pain, tenderness and fever with loose stool; the CT scan showed a distal colon and stoma diverticulitis and abscess lateral ...

Over the past three decades there has been further modifications and improvement to the technique. A guidewire dilator forceps to create a stoma was described in 1990 [5]. Fantoni described a translaryngeal technique where stomal dilation was obtained from inside [6]. A screw like dilator is used to slowly twist and dilate the stoma in Percu-Twist technique. The Griggs, Fantoni and Percu-Twist ...

Ileoscopy with mucosal biopsy is fundamental in the management and surveillance of inflammatory bowel disease patients and intestinal transplant recipients. There is a paucity of data describing the risks of ileoscopy in the presence of a prolapsed stoma. Parastomal hernias are frequently associated with prolapsed stomas. We report the first case of perforation during ileoscopy in the setting o...

The tracheoesophageal voice prosthesis (TEP) has seen wide success in thousands of patients who lost their ability to speak after a total laryngectomy. The device is small, sterile, and is operated by blocking the stoma to redirect air into the esophagus, allowing discernible speech. However, the physical blocking of the stoma can eventually become inconvenient for frequent speakers and perhaps...

All persons with an ostomy are at risk for development of peristomal skin problems. This is true regardless of the person's nation of residence, type of stoma, or supplies available for stoma care. There are measures that can be taken to lessen the potential for peristomal skin problems. These measures include preoperative stoma site marking, preoperative education, appropriate pouch/barrier fi...

Stomata are portals in plant leaves that control gas exchange for photosynthesis, a process fundamental to life on Earth. Gas fluxes and plant productivity depend on external factors such as light, water and CO2 availability and on the geometrical properties of the stoma pores. The link between stoma geometry and environmental factors has informed a wide range of scientific fields-from agricult...

The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of self-care education on knowledge and self-care agency of patients with colostomies and ileostomies. Methods: This intervention study was carried out with 64 stoma patients 32 of whom were intervention group and 32 of whom were control group at one university research hospital and two state hospitals at Eskisehir in Turkey. After stoma surgery, ...
