Colostomy shift en masse—a new procedure
2003
Colostomy shift en masse is a novel technique in which the colostomy is shifted along with a rim of skin and abdominal wall tissue. This provides additional length of distal bowel if needed during pull-through anastomosis. We have treated three cases (two Hirschsprung’s disease and one anorectal malformation) with colostomy shift en masse, and have achieved good results.
