title: Intestinal stomas in Crohn's disease.
abstract: Stomal construction is as important as the establishment of hemostasis. Appropriate preoperative assessment and adherence to accepted construction techniques usually will avoid stomal complications. In patients who suffer adverse consequences, accurate assessment and appropriate management principles are essential to properly address the problem.
