[The technical details of the definitive terminal colostomy].

Although many surgeons still perform the definitive terminal colostomy using the initial technique--pararectal incision, transperitoneal tract, secondarily retouched excess--this procedure complicates uselessly the surgical technique leading frequently to complications. These drawbacks might be avoided by using transrectal extraperitoneal extemporaneously matured colostomy that simplifies the surgical technique and prevents both precocious complications (peritonitis, occlusions, parietal abscess, necessity of a second "retouch" surgery) and also tardy complications (stomal prolapse, parastomal eventration).
