title: [The colostoma. Study of the technic of colostomy with special reference to physical considerations].
abstract: An analysis of the complications occurring in permanent colostomies at Surgery Departments of Innsbruck University during the period between January 1969 and December 1977 showed that approximately 72% of all complications were primarily caused by operative shortcomings. It was therefore right and proper to investigate the causes of these operative shortcomings by means of physical considerations with the model and the preternatural anus and to analyse its most frequent complications in order to develop a colostomy technique which has so far turned out to be clinically successful in 32 controlled patients.
