Hi everyone, I am a nursing student going to do a clinical on a
colostomy reversal. What can I expect to see? I have looked all over my
textbook and the net but have been unable to find much about this. I
know that my patient is a young male that had a colostomy done to allow
a rectal fistula to heal. He is now having the reversal done and I
will be seeing him the day of his surgery. I am interested in know
about what incisions there will be ect. I just want to be prepared.
thanks,
KS
