Button colopexy for colostomy prolapse.
Prolapse of a colostomy is a common problem. Although rarely a significant risk to life, it does present serious problems for patient care and stomal function. Button colopexy can be done easily as an outpatient procedure and is best suited for those patients who are not candidates for more extensive revisions.
