Urostomy with stent

Urostomy - with stents for drainage just after operation

If your urinary system is damaged or diseased, you will need a urinary diversion to let out urine from your body. This is called a urostomy.



A passage is made for urine to pass from your kidneys to the outside of your abdomen, ending in a small spout. This is called a stoma (opening). Read more about what a stoma looks and feels like.
