AB  - When  a  stoma  prolapses,  bowel  telescopes  out  on  itself,  lengthening  the  stoma.  A  stoma  of  the  ileum  may  prolapse  in  3%  to  11%  of  patients  over  a  lifetime.  Causes  of  stomal  prolapse  include  stomal  construction  difficulties,  abdominal  wall  abnormalities  such  as  obesity,  increased  intra-abdominal  pressure,  and  weak  abdominal  musculature.  Clinical  findings  of  stomal  prolapse  include  increase  in  size  and  length  of  the  stoma;  edema  of  the  mucosa;  and  bleeding;  and  if  ischemic,  it  may  be  dusky,  cyanotic,  or  purple  in  color.
