Incarcerated trans-stomal herniation resembling a stomal prolapse – a case report
Trans-stomal herniation, where abdominal contents protrude through the stomal aperture and lie between the two intestinal walls of the stom a is a very rare complication of stomas and can resemble a stomal prolapse. We describe a unique case of a stomal prolapse and concurrent trans-stomal small bowel herniation, which required emergency stoma refashioning for incarceration.
