There have been quite a few breakthroughs in digestive health management and ostomy is one such surgical procedure for acute cases in which a person's digestive and urinary wastes are expelled through a hole created surgically in the abdomen. This hole is called the stoma and the diverted waste is collected in an ostomy pouch, which is a prosthetic. Ostomy is a popular treatment following bowel cancer, bladder cancer, bowel ulcers, and severe incontinence issues.
