Other types of urostomy include nephrostomy (urine is diverted directly from the kidney to a stoma) and cystostomy (urine is diverted from the bladder to a stoma). Publication Review By: Stanley J. Swierzewski, III, M.D.
An ostomy is a surgical operation that creates a new outside opening for body wastes. The new opening is called a stoma. A stoma may be created to divert feces, urine or both. The stoma is created from a piece of the intestines or urinary tract which is pulled through a cut in the abdomen and stitched to the skin. Ostomies can be permanent or temporary, and sometimes more than one is needed.
