[Temporary muco-cutaneous transversal colostomy. Technical contribution].
The cases of 49 patients on whom a primary temporary muco-cutaneous transversal colostomy were practiced for different pathologies, are presented and the results obtained analysed. From our point of view, certain technical aspects explain the excellent results obtained. Within these aspects we call to attention the place where the colostomy was practiced, divulsioning the rectum muscle, the total absence of colo-parietal fixation and the early removal of the glass rod-all of which as we see it, simplifies enormously the healing process of this type of ostomy, thus permitting the systematic use of local anaesthesia. This procedure allows this type of surgery to be practiced on ambulatory patients, reducing the operating costs.
