A stoma Greek pl. stomata is an opening a direct translation of the Koine Greek would be mouth , either natural or surgery surgically created, which connects a portion of the body cavity to the outside environment. Surgical procedures in which stomata are created are ended in the suffix ostomy and begin with a prefix denoting the organ or area being operated on.

This includes the esophagus , stomach , duodenum , ileum , Colon anatomy colon , pleural cavity , ureters , urinary bladder , and kidney pelvis . One well known form of an artificial stoma is a colostomy , which is a surgically created opening in the large intestine that allows the removal of feces out of the body, bypassing the rectum , to drain into a pouch or other collection device.

Unreferenced stub auto yes date December 2009 An ileal conduit urinary diversion is a surgical technique usually referred to as the Bricker ileal conduit after its inventor, Eugene M. Bricker. It is a form of urostomy , ref cite doi 10.2214 AJR.09.3197 ref and was developed during the 1940s and is still one of the most used techniques for the diversion of urine after a patient has had their bladder removed, due to its low complication rate and high patient satisfaction level. It is usually used in conjunction with radical cystectomy in order to control invasive bladder cancer. To create an ileal conduit, the ureter s are surgically resected from the bladder and a ureteroenteric anastomosis is made in order to drain the urine into a detached section of ileum a part of the small intestine . The end of the ileum is then brought out through an opening a stoma medicine stoma in the abdominal wall . The urine is collected through a bag that attaches on the outside of the body over the stoma. The bag must be periodically emptied of urine, and must be replaced every one or two days. Any period longer than this poses the risk of infection. Another and very effective use of an ileal conduit is for systemic isolation of a kidney transplant, often due to bladder nephropathy that may pose an unacceptable risk of reflux and thus infection or obstruction, into the transplanted organ. The urostomy is fashioned as previously described and connected ureteroenteric anastomosis to the transplant ureter. Urinary tract infections are unfortunately very common because stomas are natural colonisers of bacteria in transplant patients, antibiotic treatment, often over a long term and more frequent appliance changes are effective but not curative countermeasures. The bag adheres to the skin using a disk made of flexible, adherent materials. Unfortunately, there can be problems with leaking and rashes excoriation , and heavy physical exertion will exacerbate deterioration of the appliance. Som ... more details

They are mainly marine and brackish water forms. They supposedly have predaceous and carnivorous feeding habits. Their amphids are pocket like with oval apertures. The stoma is vase like with walls that are heavily cuticularized. The stomatal armature contains one dorsal tooth and two subventral teeth, while the wall may additionally contain rows of small denticles. The stoma is divided into a cheilostome and an esophastome. In some species the male stoma is indistinct or collapsed. The cephalic sensilla are in the typical two whorl pattern one circumoral and composed of six papilliform sensilla, while the second is a single whorl of ten setiform sensory organs which combines the ancestral two whorls of six and four. In some species the sensilla are all papilliform. The esophagus is generally conoid to cylindrical, and in some species in the posterior position is a series of muscular bulbs. The cuticle is generally smooth, and there are sensory setae or papillae scattered over the length of the body. ref Maggenti, Armand R 2003 . http www.accessscience.com Encyclopedia 4 46 Est 468850 frameset.html?doi Oncholaimida .

The word peristome is derived from the Greek language Greek peri , meaning around or about , and stoma , mouth . It is a term used to describe various anatomical features that surround an opening to an organ or structure. The term is used in plant s and invertebrate animals, such as in describing the shells of gastropod mollusc s, i.e. snail s. In mosses Image Dicranella varia sporogon.jpeg right thumb 240px Arthrodontous capsule of the moss Dicranella varia In moss es, the peristome is a specialized structure in the sporangium that allows for gradual spore discharge, instead of releasing them all at once. Most mosses produce a capsule with a lid the operculum botany operculum which falls off when the spore s inside are mature and thus ready to be dispersed. The opening thus revealed is called the stoma meaning mouth and is surrounded by one or two peristomes. Each peristome is a ring of triangular teeth formed from the remnants of specially thickened cell wall s. There are usually 16 such teeth in a single peristome, separate from each other and able to both fold in to cover the stoma as well as fold back to open the stoma. This articulation of the teeth is termed arthrodontous and is found in the moss subclass Bryopsida . In other groups of mosses, the capsule is either nematodontous with an attached operculum as in the Polytrichopsida , or else splits open without operculum or teeth. There are two subtypes of arthrodontous peristome. ref Edwards, S. R. 1984. Homologies and inter relationships of moss peristomes , pages 658 695 in R. M. Schuster Ed. New Manual of Bryology .

Image Art0078.jpg right 450 px Hydathode A hydathode is a type of secretion secretory Biological tissue tissue in Leaf leaves , usually of Angiosperm s, that secretes water through pore s in the Epidermis botany epidermis or margin of leaves, typically at the tip of a marginal tooth or serration. They probably evolved from modified stomata . It is involved in guttation , where water is released from the top in order to transport the nutrients in the water from the root s to the leaves. Hydathodes are connected to the plant vascular system by a vascular bundle. Since the liquid being extruded is from the xylem it also contains salts, sugars, and organic compounds dissolved in water and this is sometimes seen to crystallize on evaporation, forming a white powdery substance on the leafs edge. This crystallisation is very obvious in halophyte s, plants adapted to live in high salt environments, and consequently the hydathodes are known as salt glands in those species. Hydathodes are special structures through which exudation of water takes place in liquid form.They are mainly found in aquatic plants and in some herbaceous plants growing in moist places. They occur at the apices of the veins at the tips of the leaves or on their margins. Hydathodes are made of a group of living cells with numerous intercellular spaces filled with water, but few or no chloroplasts. They represents modified bundle ends. These cells called EPITHEM cells open out into one or more sub epidermal chambers. These, in turn, ommunicate with the exterior through an open water stomata or open pore . The water stoma structurally resembles an ordinary stoma, but is usually larger and has lost the power of movement. Hydathodes are commonly seen in water lettuce , water hyacinth, rose, balsam, and many other species.

It may be necessary for diseased or defective ureter s, urinary bladder bladder or urethra , either temporarily or permanently. Some diversions result in a Stoma medicine stoma . Types Nephrostomy from the renal pelvis Urostomy from more distal origins along the urinary tract, with subtypes including Ileal conduit urinary diversion Bricker conduit Indiana pouch Neobladder to urethra diversion Ureteroenteric anastomosis A common feature of the three first, and most common, types of urinary diversion is the ureteroenteric anastomosis. This is the joining site of the ureters and the section of intestine used for the diversion. The ureteroenteric anastomosis can be created in a number of different ways. There is the option of a refluxing or a non refluxing type, and the two ureters can be joined into the intestinal segment either together or separately. The non refluxing type has been associated with higher incidence of ureteroenteric anastomosis stricture, and there is doubt whether it has any advantages over the refluxing type. Therefore, many surgeons prefer the refluxing type which is simpler and apparently carries a lesser degree of complications. Refluxing techniques include the Wallace and Wallace II and the Bricker end to side anastomosis . Non refluxing techniques includes the Le Duc technique. Complications Complications include incisional hernia , neobladder intestinal and neobladder cutaneous fistula s, ureteroenteric anastomosis stricture , neobladder rupture and mucous formation.
