The surgical creation of an opening into the ileum; the opening created when the ilium is surgically attached to the abdominal wall.

An operation to remove the entire colon and rectum (large bowel). A new opening (a stoma) is made for body waste by bringing the end of the small bowel to the surface of the abdomen. A bag is worn to collect the waste.

a surgically created opening from the ileum of the small intestine to the abdominal wall.

the surgical construction of a stoma made of ileum(small intestine) on the skin. Typically in urological patients, a small segment of ileum is separated away from the rest of the stool stream. The ureters are attached to the internal end of the blind-ending tube of ileum. Therefore, urine can flow to the outside of the body through the ileostomy and must be collected into a bag(appliance) since this is incontinent. In the cloacal exstrophy patient, an ileostomy is a stoma made of ileum which is in continuity with the stool stream. Therefore, this ileostomy shunts stool to the appliance; the ureters are not surgically connected to this ileostomy.

surgical procedure that creates an opening from the ileum through the abdominal wall to function as an anus; performed in cases of cancer of the colon or ulcerative colitis

a common type of ostomy in intestinal surgery (connecting the small intestine to the skin) along with a "colostomy" (connecting the large intestine to the skin)

a surgical procedure that involves cutting the small intestine and connecting it to an opening on the outside of the abdomen

a tubular bowel segment attached to a stoma at the abdomen that drains into a bag outside the abdomen

An opening in the body wall, created surgically, so the ileum can drain into an attached bag.

A surgical procedure in which an opening, called a stoma, is created in the ileum, allowing the stool to exit the body into an appliance.

An opening in the abdominal wall, created by surgery, to allow the ileus (part of the intestine above the colon) to empty directly outside of the body.

the surgical creation of an opening from the ileum to the skin.

Surgical creation of an artificial opening through which the last segment of the small intestine discharges digestive waste material directly to the outside of the body through the skin.

This is a procedure in which part of the ileum is joined with the abdominal wall to create an opening suitable for expelling fecal material. The opening is referred to as a "stoma." The purpose of an ileostomy is to bypass the colon following surgery to give it a resting period for healing, or as an alternative route for fecal elimination after a proctocolectomy.

A surgically constructed connection between the small intestine (ileum) and the skin. Requires an appliance or "bag" to collect intestinal waste.

a surgical operation in which the cut end of the ileum is brought through an opening in the abdominal wall. Waste is then collected in a bag attached to the skin and fitted over the ileum, which is fashioned into a spout.

A surgically created opening of the abdominal wall to the ileum, allowing the diversion of fecal waste.

The entire large intestine is removed and the small bowel is brought up through surgical opening onto the abdomen. Stool is liquid and comes directly from the small bowel to an opening in the abdomen rather than out the rectum and is expelled into a bad in liquid form.

An operation that removes the colon, rectum, and anus. An opening is then made from the ileum through the abdominal wall.

The result of intestinal surgery where the far end of the, mall intestine is brought out to the skin surface. The small bowel contents are then collected in a bag attached to the skin. This is normally done only for severe large bowel disease because the fluid, bicarbonate and electrolyte losses can be difficult to treat or correct, especially on a long-term basis.

(ill-ee-oss-tuh-me) : an operation in which the end of the small intestine, the ileum, is brought out through an opening in the abdomen. The contents of the intestine, unformed stool, are expelled through this opening into a bag called an appliance.

An ileostomy is a stoma that has been constructed by bringing the end of the small intestine (the ileum) out onto the surface of the skin. Intestinal waste passes out of the ileostomy and is collected in an external bag stuck to the skin. Ileostomies are usually sited above the groin on the right hand side of the abdomen.
