For the millions of patients living with an ileostomy, colostomy, or urostomy, maintaining healthy peristomal skin is a daily priority. Yet, despite the prevalence of dermatological complications, clinical guidance has historically been fragmented across surgical, nursing, and dermatological disciplines. This authoritative atlas addresses that gap, providing a comprehensive, multidisciplinary resource for all health professionals involved in stoma care.
Edited by experts from a leading specialist centre, this guide translates clinical experience into practical diagnostic and therapeutic advice. Through over 400 colour illustrations and evidence-based insights, the text covers common irritant reactions, allergies, infections, and coincident skin conditions. It clarifies the often-confusing world of stoma appliances and offers a clear diagnostic framework for managing peristomal skin health. Moving beyond anecdotal observation, this book empowers surgeons, nurses, and dermatologists to collaborate effectively, ensuring patients receive the optimal care required to maintain their quality of life. An essential reference for hospital libraries and clinical practices, this book represents a significant advancement in the management of stoma-related dermatoses.
