Popis: Between January 1983 and July 31, 1988 at the 1st Division of General Surgery of Cuneo S. Croce Hospital, 57 patients (33 m, 24 f) were subjected to abdomino-perineal amputation for rectal A.D.K. A definitive colostomy was fashioned for all patients. Neostoma complications were encountered in 33% of cases. 91% of patients completed the rehabilitative programme and 40% saw satisfactory results as regards the regularisation of the alvus and return to social life.
