The most prevailing characteristics were: descending colostomy (44.7%), regular (56.6%), median diameter 30±8mm, angle of drainage at center (36.4%), one mouth (69.2%), without surgical mark (55.2%), viable mucous membrane (100%), planes (49.6%), and thick discharge (51.0%). Fifty one point seven percent of the patients showed stomal complications and 54.7% showed peristomal skin complications, which were further solved in 68.0% of these cases in a mean time of 16.3±11.5 days.
