Fecal Diversion in Complex Anorectal Cases is a temporary measure to reroute stool, allowing affected areas to heal and manage severe conditions like fistulas, infections, or abscesses. This intervention is often employed when other treatments are insufficient.

The procedure involves creating a stoma, typically an ileostomy or colostomy, to divert stool away from the anorectal region. This reduces inflammation and promotes healing in the affected tissues.

Postoperative care includes stoma management training, dietary adjustments, and regular follow-ups to monitor progress. Once the underlying condition has improved, the stoma can often be reversed through a second surgery.

Fecal diversion benefits patients by providing relief from debilitating symptoms and improving healing outcomes. This approach ensures better management of complex anorectal conditions and enhances quality of life.
