title: A new device for barium-enema examination following colostomy.
abstract: The authors developed a colostomy appliance for use during barium-enema examinations. It is 8 cm in diameter and 4 cm in height, and is made of acrylic resins. With the use of this device, 21 patients were fluoroscopically examined through the stoma; good contrast views of the lower intestinal tract were obtained in all cases without leakage of barium or air.
