[Temporary bitubular enterostomy. A convenient procedure].
In cases where double enterostomy is necessary, it is always possible to introduce a balloon catheter into the distal small bowel and to attach it to the deep surface of the abdominal wall, close to the proximal enterostomy. This "indirect" enterostomy facilitates fitting of the productive orifice, as well as resumption of digestion and, ultimately, restoration of the gastro-intestinal tract.
