Abstrakt: Background: An intestinal stoma is an opening of the intestinal tract onto the abdominal wall constructed surgically or appearing inadvertently. Method: This study entitled "Complications of Intestinal Stoma: A Prospective Hospital Based Observational Study" is a prospective study and was conducted at Govt. Medical College, Srinagar in the Postgraduate Department of General Surgery over a period of eighteen months. Postoperative complications were noted Results: In our study, a total of 56 patients were included in which stomas were made for 28 (50%) benign conditions and 28 (50%) malignant conditions. Out of 28 complications in ileostomy procedures, most common complication was peristomal skin excoriation followed by electrolyte disturbance. Out of 9 complications in colostomy procedures, most common complications seen were stoma retraction and peristomal abscess. Conclusion: Our study found, peristomal skin excoriation and electrolyte imbalance as the most common post-operative complications in intestinal stomas. Emergency procedures increased the risk of complications in intestinal stomas and Stoma related complications resulted in longer hospital stay. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
