Comparing new stoma surgery techniques for temporary ileostomy
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This trial tests a newer, less invasive stoma surgery method against the traditional approach. It aims to see if the new method works better for people who need a temporary ileostomy during colorectal cancer surgery.

This study compares two types of temporary stomas (ileostomy and transverse colostomy) in adults who need a protective stoma after rectal or colon surgery. It aims to find which type leads to fewer complications and better recovery.
This trial looks at how different stoma (opening in the belly) approaches affect recovery after curative rectal cancer surgery. It may help doctors choose the safest, most comfortable option for bowel function and healing after surgery.
This trial compares two types of temporary stomas (a bag on the belly to collect stool) after rectal cancer surgery. It aims to see which type—ileostomy (small intestine) or colostomy (large intestine)—works better for patients.
This study tests a new way to create a stoma (an opening in the belly for waste) during laparoscopic rectal cancer surgery. It compares two methods to see which one better prevents hernias (bulges) from forming next to the stoma.
This trial tests whether a temporary stoma (a bag on the belly) can be safely avoided in some people having rectal cancer surgery. The goal is to see if it's okay to skip the stoma in those with a low risk of complications.
This trial tests whether a device called COLO-BT can be a safer, effective alternative to an ileostomy (a temporary or longer-term opening from the intestine to the skin). It’s for certain adults having a bowel connection low in the pelvis, where leak risk matters.
