Abstract:
We have used the intraluminal circular stapler to facilitate construction of the intestinal conduit stoma. We have encountered no complications related to the stapled stoma construction technique in 8 patients. The stoma is circular, uniform in size and is fitted easily with an appliance. The circular staple line provides a watertight seal that prevents contamination of the subcutaneous tissues. The technique is rapid, reliable and reproducible.

Ostomy Care
An ostomy is a surgical procedure that creates an artificial opening from the intestines to the outside of the body, allowing for the rerouting of effluent. This opening is known as a stoma. A stoma usually protrudes above the skin surface, appearing pink or red, moist, and round, and it lacks nerve sensations.
There are different types of ostomies, including colostomies, ileostomies, and urostomies:
