Abstract:
Stoma care is very challenging, and, with the added hardship of incarceration, patients find it very difficult to navigate living with a stoma and having it reversed in a timely fashion. Incarceration history adds to the clinical and ethical complexity of surgical care for patients who require an ostomy, especially when secondary to trauma. This commentary on a case canvasses strategies for responding to long-term needs of formerly incarcerated patients with an ostomy who need good follow-up care as much as they need support reintegrating into communities.
