Colostomies and the use of colostomy appliances
British Journal of Nursing, 2008The surgical formation of a colostomy is indicated as part of the treatment of various conditions, primarily colon cancer, requiring the patient (ostomist) to wear a colostomy pouch.

AbstractAlthough the care of the artificial anus is solved to a satisfactory degree and most of the patients have no problems with it, the decision to perform a definitive colostomy must be reflected thoroughly. It should not be performed unless alternative methods, particularly the deep anterior resection of the rectum, can be excluded.
