Significats de divert stoma en anglès

Diverting stoma may protect against these complications.

Background Diverting stoma is often performed in rectal cancer surgery for reducing the consequences of possible anastomotic failure.

As diverting stoma closure is not a simple operation, all strategies should be taken to reduce significant morbidity and mortality rate.

Conclusions To reduce overall complication rate, our data suggest a shorter period than 8 months after primary surgery before closure of diverting stoma.

The aim of our study was to evaluate morbidity and mortality after diverting stoma closure and to identify risk factors for complications of this procedure.
