Abstract

Introduction:Stoma formation is among the most commonly performed surgical procedures to redirect gut contents for various reasons. Parastomal hernia (PSH) is characterized as the protrusion of abdominal contents through the abdominal wall defect in the locality of the stoma. Material and Methods:We reviewed retrospectively 65 patients with stoma formation from January2021 to January 2023. Age, smoking, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) criteria, the etiology (benign or malignant), type of surgery, location of stoma exit, and type of stoma formed were documented.The data was collected for all patients from the hospital database. Results:We studied 65 patients. The mean age 55.96 years, with males in the majority: (70.8%).Out of 65, we had 34 patients had diabetes mellitus. Most of cases were performed trans-rectus stomas electively. The majority of cases due to malignancy.During an overall median follow-up of 12 months, 25 (38.4%) developed a parastomal hernia postoperativelyConclusion:In this study, we found an elevation in number of patients who had a parastomal hernia (PSH). Many risk factors were detected to be the main cause. One of these factors, a non-trans-rectus stoma is a risk factor for PSH. Larger studies are required.
