title: [Use of ileostomy and colostomy as temporal derivation in colorectal surgery].
abstract: A retrospective study on 41 patients with primary stoma creation after low anterior resection of the rectum was made. Among the 41 patients 24 had a loop colostomy (Group A) and 17 had a loop ileostomy (Group B). The two groups were well matched for each of the data analysed and there was no significant difference in the rate of complications related to stomas creation and closure. In this study the Authors suggest that loop ileostomy is the best procedure to electively defunctionate colorectal anastomoses.
