Abstract
Background need. Complications frequently occur after neonatal enterostomy. Enterostomy formation is a common outcome following emergency neonatal laparotomy. We introduce a new method for improving proximal enterostomy in newborns.
Methodlogy and device description. We added a simple drainage device on the proximal enterostomy.The simple drainage device consists of several materials: a foreskin cerclage staple (Chong Qing BORN Biological Technology Co. Ltd., Sichuan, China), a condom,and 0- Mersilk Silk braided nonabsorbable suture (ETHICON 15 × 60 cm).
Preliminary results. A total of 20 cases participated in the study. All surgeries were performed by a single surgeon. The cases only occurred one case of prolapse of the intestinal, one case of premature surgery due to excessive orifice flow, and one case of periostomy dermatitis, Other patients not experienced intraoperative or postoperative complications.
Current status. Based on our preliminary observations, the simple drainage device is a safe and effective operation device that can reduce the risk of stoma-related complications.
