Abstract
BACKGROUND Ileostomy is a lifesaving procedure in cases like perforation, peritonitis, typhoid fever, tuberculosis, and trauma. Ileostomy serves the purpose of diversion, decompression, and exteriorisation. Construction of ileostomy is still a common and frequently performed procedure, even though it is a major advancement in the field of surgery. This study intends to evaluate the clinical profile of ileostomy and assess early postoperative complications of ileostomy. METHODS A total number of 36 patients admitted in MMIMSR, Mullana (Ambala), managed and operated with ileostomy were followed up closely from the day of admission in the hospital to the day of discharge. Different parameters were studied. RESULTS The clinical profile, techniques, complications, indications of ileostomy were studied in detail and along with various early complications encountered with ileostomy formation. The most common complication was peristomal irritation in 33 patients (91.7 %), followed by skin excoriation in 24 patients (66.7 %), fistula in 21 patients (58.3 %), high output stoma in 17 patients (47.2 %), stomal retraction in 3 patients (8.3 %), abscess in 2 patients (5.6 %), necrosis in 1 patient (2.8 %), and stenosis in 1 patient (2.8 %). CONCLUSIONS Construction of ileostomy and its management was associated with high rate of complications. However, most patients tolerated the complications of ileostomy well and the overall compliance was satisfactory. Loop ileostomy was the most commonly performed stoma and was associated with high rate of complications.
