[Stomas in pregnancy, clinical case and review of the literature].
Stomas and pregnancy is an uncommon event and the literature in this regard is scarce, this poses significant concern on its management. Among the etiology we found the ulcerative colitis, trauma, and rectovaginal fistula, etc. The management should include a perinatologist and a specialist in colon and rectum. We should be familiarized with the potential complication as the intestinal obstruction, stoma prolapse, narrowing of the stoma and bleeding. The route delivery should be vaginal and the c-section is reserved for obstetric indications. The patient must receive education regarding stoma complications, and how to copy to live with a stoma.
