A technique for temporary control of colostomy prolapse in children.
Journal of Pediatric Surgery 1985 December
Stomal prolapse is a common complication of colostomies and, if severe, may affect the timing of the definitive procedure. A simple technique for postreduction bowel fixation without stomal revision is presented. The reduced bowel is attached to the parietal peritoneum using a "U" type suture a few centimeters from the stoma. Two short parallel segments of latex tubing prevent the thread from cutting through. Suture and bolsters are removed when adhesions are established. In one of the four children, a percutaneous cecostomy was employed to connect a prolapse of the entire proximal colon.
