Some patients require the end bit of the large bowel to be brought out of the skin as an end colostomy. This is most commonly occurs in two situations, one when people have a very low tube of the back passage and they have to have the whole of the back passage removed permanently, or in emergency situations where perhaps patients develop a hole in the bowel or perforation of the bowel due to inflammation of the bowel and then they need that segment removed and in those situations it's not possible to join it back together again immediately.
