Colostomy closure in post Conflict Iraq
Background: Colostomy minimizes the risk of leakage at expense of requiring a second operation. In Iraq, published on colostomy closure in penetrating abdominal wall injuries is scarce. Objective: to Study the prognosis of colostomy closure in post-conflict patients in Iraq. Method: This is a...
