Extraperitoneal Stoma

This study is a prospective, randomized controlled trial designed to compare two surgical techniques for stoma creation in patients undergoing colorectal surgery. The trial evaluates whether an extraperitoneal stoma created via the arcuate line approach can reduce the risk of developing parastomal hernia compared to the conventional transperitoneal stoma formation. Parastomal hernia is a common complication after stoma surgery, often requiring additional treatment or surgery. By testing a novel surgical route that avoids entering the abdominal cavity, this study aims to improve postoperative outcomes and quality of life for patients requiring a permanent stoma.
