Immediate and long-term results of closure of a functioning single-stem ileostomy

The aim of the work was to study and evaluate the immediate and long-term results after performing reconstructive and reconstructive operations to eliminate functioning ileostomes. Materials and methods: We operated on 30 patients with functioning single-stem ileostomes in 2019–2022. All interventions were performed as planned. The average age of patients at the time of reconstructive and reconstructive operations was in the range from 35 to 72 years. There were 18 men and 12 women. Results: When using in clinical practice the method of areflux small-colonic anastomosis developed by us in the early postoperative period, intestinal paresis and seromas of the postoperative wound were observed, which were resolved by conservative measures. No complications were observed in the long-term postoperative period. Conclusions: The developed valvular, areflux small-colonic anastomosis prevents reflux of the contents of the colon into the small intestine, thereby preventing the development of SIBR and the number of postoperative complications.
