Adapt by Hollister: Reliable Ostomy Supplies

An ostomy is an opening in the abdomen, called a stoma, that is surgically created to eliminate body waste when a person is unable to do this via normal routes – anus and urethra. The waste is deposited in a collection bag that is attached to the stoma. An ostomy can be a temporary solution or a permanent one, and there are several conditions where an ostomy may be necessary including Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) such as Crohn’s, ulcerative colitis, colon or bladder cancer, diverticulitis, birth defects or injury. Ostomy types include colostomy for the large intestine, ileostomy for the small intestine and urostomy which reroutes urine into a pouch.
