| continent ileostomy |
For this type of ileostomy, the surgeon may use the end of the ileum to create a pouch inside the lower abdomen to collect waste. An opening is also created in the abdominal wall. To empty the pouch, a tube is inserted manually into the opening in the abdominal wall. No external appliance is required. If this surgery is chosen there is a risk of pouchitis (inflammation of the pouch), which can usually be controlled with medication.
