What is Colostomy: Types, Care, and Complications about?

Colostomy is a surgical procedure that creates an opening in the abdominal wall for feces and flatus collection in an external appliance. It can be classified by anatomic location (e.g., cecostomy, ascending colostomy) and function (e.g., decompressing, diverting). Pre-operative preparations include patient education and dietary adjustments, while post-operative care involves monitoring stoma condition and managing potential complications.
