title: [Preternatural anus and its care (author's transl)].
abstract: The most careful surgical technique, the guiding principles of which are outlined, is a prerequisite for the subsequent possibilities for correct care of preternatural anus and for preventing otherwise unavoidable complications. Four different programs are available to us for care; truss pad, adhesive bag, irrigation therapy and the Erlanger magnetic closure. For prophylaxis of frequent hernias and prolapses, wearing a made-to-measure body binder is indispensable. Skin lesions, formerly feared concomitant symptoms, can now be prevented or eliminated as a result of the development of non-irritant adhesives, combinations with sterculia rings or adhesive plasters and differentiated skin care products. A more comprehensive organization of those with preternatural anus within the framework of the German Ilco and the establishment of preternatural anus clinics and therapists would be desirable.
