[Para-stomal hernias. Report of 3 cases].
Three cases of stomal hernia are presented in this article; two females and one in male patient, the first two cases with colostomy and the remaining patient with ileostomy. One case was treated by replacing stoma and subsequent hernioplasty. The additional two were treated with Leslie technique. To date, there have been no recurrences. Patients were followed for a median of 2 years. Although this complication is infrequent we recommend careful planning prior to performing a stoma, as well as determining the best anatomic site and use good surgical technique.
