Name a common type of a conventional ostomy
|
ileostomy
colostomy urostomy |
|
Name a common type of alternate ostomy procedure
|
continent ileostomy
Pelvic pouch (IPAA) Continent urostomy orthotopic urinary diversion |
|
Describe a conventional ileostomy
|
temporary or permanent
effluent is liquid to slightly pasty Most common location is the RLQ |
|
Describe a pelvic pouch (IPAA/ileal pouch anal anastomosis)
|
Internal ileal reservoir created from distal small bowel.
Continence is achieved by sphincter and pelvic floor muscles. Goal is to avoid the need for a pouch. |
|
Who are candidates for a pelvic pouch?
|
Patient with mucosal ulcerative colities (MUC) and FAP (Familial adenomatous polyposis)
|
|
Describe a continent ileostomy
|
Internal intestinal reservoir created from distal small bowel.
CANDIDATES are pts with mucosal ulcerative colitis; failed pelvic pouch or inadaquate shincters for pelvic pouch. Continence is achieved by nipple valve created by intusseption and/or plication of the terminal ileum. |
|
What is the main indication for a colostomy?
|
Cancer
|
|
Describe what to expect with a cecostomy
|
Output- semi liquid to pasty
May be projectile effluent (due to proximity to ileocecal valve) Watch for electrolye imbalance Located in RLQ Function begins around 3rd post op day |
|
Describe what to expect with an ascending colostomy.
|
semi liquid to pasty effluent
Watch for fluid and electrolyte imbalance RLQ Function 3rd day post op |
|
What can you expect with a transverse colostomy
|
Output is pasty to semi solid
Frequently located in mid abdomen Functions around 4th day post op |
|
Describe descending/sigmoid colostomy
|
Most common.
Output is semi-solid to formed Absorption/manufacture of Vit K & folic acid is not affected LLQ Functions around 7th day post op. May be irrigated. |
|
What is the #1 cause of bladder CA?
|
Smoking
|
|
Name the types of urostomies.
|
Vesicostomy
Ureterostomy Nephrostomy Conduits: ileal, sigmoid, jejunal Continent urinary diversion Orthotopic urinary diversions |
|
Describe a vesicostomy
|
Bladder wall is everted and sutured to the skin.
Located: suprapubic region |
|
Describe a ureterostomy
|
Ureter is exteriorized to the anterior or posterior (flank) abdomen
|
|
Describe the condition of Biliary Atresia
|
Pathologic obliteration of the extra hepatic bile ducts.
Kasai procedure is the surgery commonly performed. |
|
Exstrophy of the Cloaca
|
Failure of the abdominal wall to close exposing intestinal and urinary organs.
Surgery: Colostomy or ileostomy |
|
Familial Adenomatoeus Polyposis Coli (FAP)
|
Autosomal dominant inherited condition characterized by intestinal, especially colon, dysplasia. Adenoma is cell most affected.
Surgery: Pelvic pouch or ileal rectal anastomosis. |
|
Hirshprungs Disease
|
Intestinal defect characterized by the absense of ganglion cells resulting in a non-relaxation phase of peristalsis.
Surgery: swenson pull-through |
|
Imperforate Anus
|
Abnormal patency and/or ectopic location of the anus
|
|
Inflammatory Bowel Disease
|
Strikes most often between 15 and 35 years of age. Has been diagnosed in children as young as 2 years.
|
|
Mucosal Ulcerative Colitis
|
Inflammation of mucosal layer of colon.
Characterized by bloody diarrhea and failure to thrive. Surgery: Pelvic Pouch or subtotal colectomy and end ileostomy |
|
Crohn's Disease
|
Transmural inflammation that can affect entire GI tract.
Characterized by diarrhea, abdominal pain and failure to thrive. |
|
Meconium Ileus
|
Intestinal obstruction due to abnormal, putty like meconium.
Seen in 10-15% of neonates with cystic fibrosis Surgery: Temporary ileostomy and flushing of colon |
|
Necrotizing Enterocolitis
|
Segment of gangrenous bowel.
Occurs in 3-8% of premature infants weighing less than 2000 grams |
|
Omphalocele
|
Herniation of abdominal contents through the umbilical base with the amniotic membrane covering the contents.
Surgery: Possible temporary ileostomy with abdominal closure. |
|
Volvulus
|
Torsion of a loop of intestine.
Surgery: Possible temporary ileostomy with bowel resection. |
|
Extrophy of the bladder
|
Failure of anterior abdominal wall to fuse, resulting in exposure of everted bladder epithelium
Surgery: Bladder reconstruction or urinary diversion. |
|
Posterior Urethral Valves
|
Results in bladder outlet obstruction or impediment to flow of urine.
Surgery: Primary fulguration of the valves. Possible urinary diversion. |
|
Prune-belly Syndrome
|
AKA: Eagle Barrett Syndrome
Absence of abdominal musculature resulting in varying degrees of distortion of the urinary system. In males, undescended testes. Hydroureter Surgery: Abdominalplasty. Usually temporary ureterostomies. |
|
Spina Bifida (Myelomeningocele)
|
Defect in the fusin of the bony spine with associatied spinal cord involvement.
