Area of Science:

  • Gastroenterology
  • Surgical Procedures
  • Colorectal Surgery

Background:

  • Loop ileostomy (LI) is utilized for complete fecal diversion and distal colon defunctioning.
  • It serves as a temporary or permanent palliative measure.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the morbidity associated with loop ileostomy (LI).
  • To assess the safety and efficacy of LI as a fecal diversion method.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective review of 135 patients undergoing LI between 1985 and 1996.
  • Analysis of morbidity data and literature review.

Main Results:

  • Loop ileostomy (LI) was found to be a simple and safe procedure.
  • Effective fecal diversion was achieved in all cases.
