Creates diverting colostomy with distal rectum/colon closed or stapled. Temporary measure for emergency colorectal surgery. Allows later reversal when patient stabilized. Surgical bridge allowing bowel continuity restoration.
Resection of diseased colon segment. Creation of end colostomy. Closure/stapling of distal limb leaving in place for future reversal. Avoids primary anastomosis in contaminated/emergency setting.
Performed 3-6 months after initial procedure when patient recovered. Anastomosis of proximal and distal colon, restoration of bowel continuity. Relatively simple procedure with excellent outcomes.
Accurate estimate can be obtained from hospital while visiting the doctor.
