Enterostomy Suspended

Enterostomy is a surgical operation in which an opening is created in the intestinal wall to drain intestinal contents out. In some cases, enterostomies are used as a temporary way to divert feces, for example, after intestinal resection.

Enterostomy can be performed for both therapeutic and diagnostic purposes. Most often, it is performed to drain contents from the intestine after intestinal resections, removal of tumors, and also in cases of intestinal obstruction.

Operation stages:

1. Preparatory stage.
2. Anesthesia.
3. An incision in the intestinal wall at the site of the intended opening.
4. Insertion of a drainage tube into the intestinal lumen.
5. Summing the drainage tube to the intestinal wall.
6. Creating a hole to drain contents.
7. Fixing the outer end of the drainage tube on the skin using a rubber cuff.
8. Applying sutures to the wound.
9. Antiseptic treatment.
10. Vessel ligation.
11. Removing the drainage tube.
12. Prescribing antibiotics and painkillers.
13. The suture material is removed after 1–2 weeks.

It is important to note that enterostomy is a temporary method of diverting bowel contents and requires regular monitoring and replacement of the drainage tube if necessary. It is also necessary to monitor the condition of the skin around the drainage tube and prevent it from being displaced or damaged.

Enterostomy is a surgical method for the surgical treatment of intestinal diseases. It involves bringing out a part of the intestine onto the anterior abdominal wall, which is cut due to a narrowing of the area. Drainage - a tubular rubber-silicone tube with drainage holes. The non-routine part of the intestinal lumen (jejunum or ileum) is separated from nearby tissues, sutured to the skin of the anterior abdominal wall and drained. Then the condition of the drainage is monitored for timely detection of the purulent-inflammatory process and its prevention. After normalization of the inflammatory process, the drainage is removed. If indicated, therapeutic ligation of the drainage is possible.
