The outcomes of surgical rehabilitation of colostomy patients are analyzed. The object of surgical rehabilitation in the patients with a life−long stoma was shown to be treatment of the complications associated with the colostomy. The object of rehabilitation of the patients with temporary colostomy is restoration of intestinal continuity by means of reconstructive−restorative surgery. Only medical rehabilitation is emphasized to be able to solve the whole range of the problems in colostomy patients. The state support in supply of the modern stoma equipment is necessary.

Key words: colostomy patients, surgical rehabilitation.
