A colostomy is a surgical procedure that brings one end of the large intestine out through the
abdominal wall. During this procedure, one end of the colon is diverted through an incision in the
abdominal wall to create a stoma. A stoma is the opening in the skin where a pouch for collecting feces
is attached.
