    Area of Science:

    • Surgical outcomes
    • Gastroenterology

    Background:

    • Ileostomy is a common surgical procedure.
    • Complications can significantly impact patient recovery and quality of life.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To review the complication rates associated with ileostomy.
    • To identify patient factors and circumstances linked to increased ileostomy complications.

    Main Methods:

    • Retrospective review of 45 patients who underwent ileostomy.
    • Analysis of complication incidence based on patient characteristics and surgical indications.

    Main Results:

    • Overall complication rate was 24% in the reviewed ileostomy cases.
    • Higher complication rates were observed in obese patients (80%), those with chronic ulcerative colitis (45%), and emergency ileostomies (50%).

    Conclusions:

    • Ileostomy complications are significant but potentially preventable.
    • Meticulous surgical technique is crucial for minimizing complications in ileostomy patients.
