Int J Urol. 2003 Dec;10(12):680-2. doi: 10.1046/j.1442-2042.2003.00725.x.

Abstract

We repaired a recurrent ileal conduit parastomal hernia, according to Kaufman's technique, by translocating the stoma to the opposite side of the abdominal wall without laparotomy. This procedure is a simple and less invasive treatment for large parastomal hernia.
