[Sexuality in ostomy patients].
Seventy adult patients out of 446 with surgical stomas were investigated to ascertain the degree of sexual disfunction caused by the operation. A questionnaire of 74 items was given to all patients. Statistical analysis was done for crossing variables using Chi Square calculations. Sexual activity decreased much more in males than in females, independently of age but in relation to the type of operation.
