A series of 15 patients suffering from irradiation injuries to the large bowel is reviewed. Ten patients required surgical intervention, initially a diverting stoma in eight; intestinal continuity was re-established in three patients. Loop ileostomy may be preferable to loop transverse colostomy for fecal diversion, as the former is easier for the patient to manage, and ensures that there is no interference with blood supply to the colon should an abdomino-anal pull-through procedure be indicated later to restore continuity. As only three of the patients developed recurrent carcinoma, the initial operation for irradiation injury to the large bowel should be carefully planned so that the patient is not ultimately cured of carcinoma but left with a permanent stoma.
