Dear Dr Korhan

A friend of mine has been colostomi for 18 years because of removal of the anus canal.she hates colostomi bags and never used it.Now she is anxiously fed up and wonders if colostomi reversal is possible for her in Turkey ? Would you kindly help her to find a solution ?
Appreciating your attention I am awaiting your responce'

Your friend probably underwent an abdominoperineal resection (APR) or Miles operation, in which the anus is removed together with the distal rectum and proximal colon is sewn to the abdomen which is named as colostomy or stoma. In order to reverse this APR or Miles operation, dynamic graciloplasty or implant of an artificial bowel sphincter may be performed. First of all, your friend should consult her surgeon and take his advice for this surgery and then proceed with the appropriate surgeon. I personally do not perform surgery on stoma reversals of patients living abroad.

Dear Dr Korhan. Thanks a lot for your reply .fortunately we have been living in Istanbul for3 years.we would like to have more information about your proposal. Would you kindly help us in this respect?waiting your kind attention yours .................................

If the patient lives in Istanbul, it will not be a problem for me to consult your friend. I would require all reports regarding previous surgery, and also follow-up notes. If you provide these, you my make an appoinment by contacting my assistant, but please note that you have to find someone to contact in Turkish with him.

Dear Dr Korhan I think providing these reports is difficult but we will hopefully try to get them from the hospital where operation preformed. We thank you again
And will contact you in due course ınşallah good night
