[2 variants of angular enterostomy].
Abstract
To accelerate the self-healing of an intestinal fistula the author developed 2 variants of enterostomy based on the principle of valvular closure of the serous canal after the removal of the tube. The serous canal around the tube forms from the lateral walls of both bends of intestinal loop a fold in the shape of an angle. In the first variant the tube enters the intestinal lumen along the intestinal loop curvature line; in the second - through the lateral wall of one of the intestinal loop bends. The angular jejunostomy was applied as feeding fistula in 49 cases. The angular ileostomy was carried out on 24 cases to obtain the decompression of the small intestine. There were no cases of complications or fatal outcome resulting from the application of the angular enterostomy method.
