Ileostomy (Ostomy)
An Ileostomy (Ostomy) involves surgically creating an opening in the abdominal wall to divert the small intestine's output into an external pouch. This procedure is often necessary for individuals with Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, or bowel cancer. Proper care and management of an Ileostomy (Ostomy) are crucial for patient health.
